16-Channel Low-Offset Relay Multiplexer

The Agilent E***5A General-Purpose Reed Relay Multiplexer is a B-size, *-slot, register-based VXI module that switches *6 channels of high, low, and guard each. The multiplexer has low thermal offset performance. This module consists of a B-size component card (labeled E*********1) and a screw terminal block that plugs onto the component card. The E***5A is functionally similar to the E***7A.

The E***5A multiplexer is arranged into two banks of eight switches, each having its own common high, low, and guard screw terminals accessible on the terminal block. Tree-switched common high, low, and guard screw terminals and analog bus connections provide access to all *6 channels. The module may be programmed as either a single 1 x *6 three-wire multiplexer, two independent 1 x 8 three-wire multiplexers (for four-wire &omega) or a 1 x 8 six-wire multiplexer.
