High-density thermocouple simulation module
launched by Pickering Interfaces:
Up to 32 channels in a single PXI slot
Pickering Interfaces, a leading provider of modular signal switching
and simulation for electronic test and verification, has launched
a low voltage output module ideal for simulating the operation of
a thermocouple. The 41-761 occupies a single PXI slot yet can
provide up to 32 independently-isolated channels of thermocouple
simulation. With ranges of +/-20mV, +/-50mV and +/-100mV it is
suitable for simulating any thermocouple type.
Available with a choice of 32, 24, 16 or 8 channels, the 41-761
is part of a growing family of thermocouple simulators from Pickering. Each channel provides a low
voltage output across two connector pins capable of providing ±20mV with 0.7μV resolution, ±50mV
with 1.7μV resolution and ±100mV with 3.3μV resolution, covering most thermocouple types.

small form factor, reliability, and
performance that developers need to create innovative embedded vision and AI solutions
for communications, compute, industrial, automotive, and consumer systems.
According to Patrick Moorhead, president and founder of Moor Insights & Strategy, “Technology trends like 5G connectivity,
cloud-based analytics, factory automation and the smart home are driving demand for embedded vision solutions that
support machine learning. However, the data latency, cost and privacy issues associated with cloud-based ML analytics
have sparked interest among developers in moving more data processing from the cloud to the Edge. But doing so
requires OEMs have access to Edge AI/ML inferencing solutions that offer high performance data processing, low power
operation, and a small form factor.”
