Pickering 10-910-101

The Pickering 10-910-101 is a modular component engineered for integration into Pickering’s System 10 or System 20 switching chassis. This module functions as either a power supply or control interface within a distributed switching system, communicating through the internal system bus and connecting via DIN 41612 connectors. The module occupies a standard slot on the 0.6-inch pitch architecture and supports direct logic drive from 74HC and 74HCT families, making it suitable for applications requiring relay switching control and system-level power distribution in rack-mounted test and measurement environments.

– Technical Specifications

• System Compatibility: System 10 or System 20 chassis (DIN 41494 / IEC297 compatible)
• Backplane Interface: DIN 41612 connectors for power and communication
• Module Pitch: 0.6-inch slot spacing
• Logic Drive Support: 74HC and 74HCT logic families
• Coil Resistance Temperature Coefficient: +0.4% per °C
• Typical Coil Resistance: 1600 Ω (5V versions)

– Key Features

• Direct integration into System 10/20 modular architecture
• DIN 41612 backplane connectivity for standardized power and signal distribution
• Compatible with 74HC/74HCT logic drive circuits
• Temperature-dependent coil resistance requiring compensated drive voltage at elevated operating temperatures
• Designed for reliable operation in sensitive measurement systems

– Typical Applications

• Relay switching control within automated test systems
• Power distribution and management in modular measurement chassis
• Logic-level switching interface in data acquisition environments
• Industrial test automation requiring DIN 41494-compliant module architectures

– Compatibility & Integration

The 10-910-101 integrates with Pickering’s full System 10 and System 20 ecosystem, including ancillary modules such as power supplies (10-910-002 series) and communication interfaces (10-921 RS232/IEEE-488.2). Chassis configurations support 3U or 6U rack heights at 84HP width with 250 mm depth, accommodating both front and rear module access based on system layout requirements.
