General Purpose

VTI Instruments Switching Modules offer SPST and SPDT configurations, supporting up to 80 channels with a switching capacity of up to 5A.

EX1200-5001, EX1200-5002, EX-1200-5006, EX-1200-5007:

• General purpose switching up to 300 V / 2 A
• Easy to use end-to-end path level switching for simplified programming
• Best bandwidth and crosstalk performance in its class
• Can be mixed and matched to create application specific configurations
• Ideal for general purpose switching of up to 300 V (AC/DC) or 2 A
• Can be used to switch a common point to either power or ground (Form C)
• Connect together using external wiring for flexible switch design
• Easy to use configuration software facilitates end-to-end path-level switching for simplified programming

The EX1200-5001 (80 channels) is a high-density general purpose 2 A SPST switch modules designed or systems where individual relays can be used to route signals to/from the units under test (UUT) or combined externally to form user-defined configurations. These relays are commonly used to create complex signal distribution networks that can be reconfigured through different wiring in test adapters. Up to 480 SPST relays can be accommodated in a 1U full-rack mainframe for maximum density.

The EX1200-5002 is a high-density general purpose 2 A switch module designed for systems where individual relays can be used to route signals to/from the units under test (UUT) or combined externally to form user-defined configurations. These relays are commonly used to create complex signal distribution networks that can be reconfigured through different wiring in test adapters. For example, three relays on an EX1200-5002 module can be configured as a SP4T tree and seven relays can be configured as a SP8T tree. Up to 192 individual SPDT or 480 SPST relays can be accommodated in a full rack mainframe.

The EX1200-5006 (40 channels) is a general purpose 2 A SPST switch modules designed or systems where individual relays can be used to route signals to/from the units under test (UUT) or combined externally to form user-defined configurations. These relays are commonly used to create complex signal distribution networks that can be reconfigured through different wiring in test adapters. Up to 240 SPST relays can be accommodated in a 1U full-rack mainframe. 

The EX1200-5007 is a general purpose 2 A switch module designed for systems where individual relays can be used to route signals to/from the units under test (UUT) or combined externally to form user-defined configurations. These relays are commonly used to create complex signal distribution networks that can be reconfigured through different wiring in test adapters. For example, three relays on an EX1200-5007 module can be configured as a SP4T tree and seven relays can be configured as a SP8T tree. 


EX1200-5004:

• Switch signals up to 5 A
• Fail-safe interrupt forces relays to open in case of fault condition
• Ideal for hot switching general purpose signals up to 5 A
• Fail-safe interrupt forces relays open in case of external fault condition
• Integral shield attenuates noise and crosstalk between adjacent channels/modules
• Up to 192 individual SPDT relays in a 1U full-rack mainframe
• IVI Switch compliant drivers facilitate path level commands to simplify programming

The EX1200-5004 is a high-density 5 A switch module designed for switching applications such as process control, appliance pass/fail testing, and on/off control. Up to 192 individual SPDT relays can be accommodated in a 1U full-rack mainframe for maximum density. Since the EX1200-5004 is typically used to switch power to the device under test or interface panel, it will respond to a fail-safe interrupt signal provided through the EX1200 system general purpose digital I/O. By programming this module as a ‘listener’ to a fail-safe input, all relays can be forced to automatically open to instantly remove power from the UUT or interface in the event of an external fault condition.
