•t Software configurable—no
jumpers!
•t Switches 30 W, 0.5 A and 125 VAC
•t High density coaxial interfaces
•t Excellent for oscilloscope or time
interval counter measurements
Product Information
The 1260-51 is an excellent choice for
switching high frequency signals to an
oscilloscope or counter/timer. Its wide
bandwidth ensures that the test equipment
sees fast, transient signals. The 1260-51
is also ideal for switching high frequency
signal sources, such as our family of waveform synthesizers and signal generators,
to the unit under test.
Relay coil-current monitoring is available
to provide confidence checking by assuring
the user of proper relay operation.
The 1260-51 is controlled by the Racal
Instruments™ Option 01 message-based
interface, or the Option 01T messagebased and register-based interface, which
are explained in detail on separate data
sheets.
The 1260-51 consists of six 2x6 matrices
that may be combined into three, 2x12 or
one, 2x36 matrix. The module automatically configures interconnection relays
to achieve the path desired.
The 1260-51 provides a low noise switch
path with excellent crosstalk and isolation.
This performance allows the 1260-51 to
switch signals in critical tests of amplifiers,
receivers and other active devices.
