Agilent E1357A
Description
The Agilent E1357A provides up to eight channels of strain gage switching.
Strain gage measurements are supported in 1/4 bridge, 1/2 bridge, and full
bridge measurements with 120 Ω completion resistors. A strain gage
excitation power supply is also provided.
Agilent E1358A
Description
The Agilent E1358A is identical to the Agilent E1357A except the strain
gage completion resistors are 350 Ω..

Serial Numbers
FET Multiplexers covered by this manual are identified by a serial number
prefix listed on the title page. Agilent Technologies uses a two-part serial
number in the form XXXXAYYYYY, where XXXX is the serial prefix, A
is the country of origin (A=USA), and YYYYY is the serial suffix. The
serial number prefix identifies a series of identical instruments. The serial
number suffix is assigned sequentially to each instrument.
The serial number plate is located on the backplane connector. If the serial
number prefix of your instrument is greater than the one listed on the title
page, a Manual Update (as required) will explain how to adapt this manual
to your instrument.
