Inside Pickering’s showcase at the Aerospace Test & Development Event

At Pickering, we understand that electronics engineers in the space and defense industry have specific testing requirements due to demanding standards for long operating life, high reliability, and harsh environmental conditions. Our modular products are based on well-known open industry standards, ensuring long-term availability, reducing development time, and speeding up time-to-market. With a high level of expertise in designing switching and simulation systems, we assist our customers in efficiently achieving their testing objectives and offering products with user-friendly tools to enhance the design efforts and productivity of development teams. The outcome is customizable COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) test systems that can be optimized to meet current and future needs.

Pickering will showcase the following switching and simulation products, solutions and demos for aerospace applications at the Aerospace Test and Development show on stand 622:

• A demo utilizing Pickering products to generate and switch signals to power a model turbojet engine and simulate the engine's RPM using a Resolver Simulator. Pickering products in the demo include:

        - PXIe full hybrid chassis
        - PXIe embedded controller
        - PXI function generator module
        - PXI LVDT simulator module
        - PXI resolver simulator module
        - PXI 16x8 2-pole 2A matrix module
        - 78-pin connector block
        - The entire setup is controlled through Pickering cabling solutions and software drivers via NI LabVIEW

• Various PXI/PXIe switching & simulation modules, including RF & Microwave modules and PXI Digital I/O modules
• Turnkey LXI microwave switch & signal routing subsystem demo
