Using the SMIP II family for microwave switching, the user obtains the following benefits over other VXI microwave switch solutions:
Density: Up to eight (1x6) microwave relays can be housed in a
Weight: The miniature relay technology reduces the overall weight considerably. Where possible, ultralight cabling is used maintaining the total weight under five pounds.
PROGRAMMING
The SMIP II family of switch modules is programmed using direct register access for fast data throughput.
Automatic Scanning
A predefined sequence of channels can be programmed into an extensive scan list that can be incremented by a trigger. This approach relieves the host controller from having to tie up the VXIbus backplane when scanning.
