HP / Keysight / Agilent E1366A Overview
Switching consists of connecting a channel to its common terminal. The E1366A can easily be used with SCPI commands to scan multiple channels, where each channel is switched to its common, one at a time. When open (disconnected from common), each channel is connected to a 50 Ohm temination.
This multiplexer module is arranged as two independent banks of channels (Bank 0 and Bank 1), each acting as a 1 x 4 one-wire multiplexer. Only one channel in each bank can be connected to its common at any time. Each channel consists of a non-latching armature relay. At power-on or reset, all channels are open and connected to their termination resistors. The termination resistor can be removed if desired. The multiplexer relays are arranged in a tree-switched configuration, providing high isolation and low VSWR.
