Resistor Simulator Card
$4,830.00
Concurrent Real-Time’s Resistor Simulator PCIe card provides 16 individual resistors programmable from 45 ohms to 1 megaohms in 5 ohm steps. Voltage ranges are +/-14V with a maximum current of +/-10mA. Includes OPEN, +VOLTAGE and GROUND fault insertion on all resistor lines.
Each request is reviewed by our engineering and sales teams to ensure configuration accuracy, system compatibility, and delivery requirements.
The CP-RESSIM-16 Resistor Simulator PCIe Card provides programmable resistance simulation across multiple channels for real-time test and validation environments. The card supports 16 independent digital programmable resistors, enabling accurate emulation of variable resistance conditions within a system.
Each channel is configurable from 45 ohms to 1 megaohm in 5 ohm increments, allowing precise control of resistance values. A 10 ohm low-scale selection is also available for applications requiring finer resolution at lower resistance ranges.
Programmable Resistance Simulation
The card allows users to dynamically adjust resistance values across all channels, supporting:
- 16-channel programmable resistance
- 45 Ω to 1 MΩ range
- 5 Ω step resolution
This enables simulation of a wide range of resistive sensor and circuit conditions.
Voltage and Current Characteristics
The system supports:
- Voltage range of ±14V
- Maximum current of ±10 mA
These parameters allow the card to interface with typical signal environments used in test and simulation systems.
Fault Injection Capabilities
Each channel supports built-in fault insertion, including:
- Open circuit
- Ground fault
- Positive voltage (+V) fault
This allows controlled testing of system behavior under fault conditions.
Isolation and Protection
The card includes:
- Galvanic isolation
- Overvoltage protection
These features support safe operation and integration into test environments.
