Data Sheet


The National Instruments PXI-2570 is a 40-channel, general-purpose switch module. Featuring independent SPDT (Form C) relays, the NI PXI-2570 maximizes relay density in a single PXI slot. Each relay contains a normally closed (NC), normally open (NO), and common terminal (COM) and can handle up to 100 VDC/100 VAC or up to 1 A of current. With 40 channels per module, you can switch several hundred ATE loads in a single PXI chassis or thousands of channels in a multiple-chassis configuration.

You need a cable to transmit signals to and from your device.
The chassis provides rugged, modular housing for the controller and modules and contains the high-performance PXI backplane, which includes the system's data, timing, and triggering buses.
The controller runs your application and interfaces with your PXI modules.
You need software to interface with your hardware and to collect, analyze, present, and store your measurements. This board is compatible with a variety of programming languages, including LabVIEW, C/C++, Visual Basic, and .NET. LabVIEW provides the easiest integration with all of your NI hardware and is recommended to maximize your hardware investment.
