Low-cost, high-qualit y switching for
automated test
If you don’t need the built-in measurement capability of the
34970A/34972A, save money by ordering it without the DMM.
What you end up with is the lowest cost switch unit on the
market. It’s an ideal solution for routing test signals to and from
your DUT and assorted instruments, including external DMMs,
scopes, counters, and power supplies. Plus, you can add the
DMM later if your needs change.
The functionality you need
We put a lot of thought into defining and designing the modules
for the 34970A/34972A in order to cover a broad spectrum of
switching and signal routing requirements with fewer modules.
The result? Simplified ordering and easier configuration. And
while we were at it, we improved performance and density. The
34970A/34972A modules can switch from microvolts to 300
volts, dc to 2 GHz, and with densities as high as 120 single-ended
channels or 96 matrix crosspoints per frame. Plus, simple control
capabilities like analog outputs, open collector digital outputs,
and isolated Form-C relays for controlling higher-powered
devices are available.
Low-cost switching system for automated testing
Easy scanning
The 34970A/34972A can easily scan with external instruments.
It builds a scan list that includes all enabled low frequency
multiplexer inputs. Scans are controlled with the external channel
advance input, or with the front panel Step key.
Connect to the company network
With the 34972A’s LAN interface, the instrument is easily
connected to the company network to collect measurement data
to a central database, remotely access the instrument’s set up, or
monitor measurement data from anywhere on the network.
