HP E1460A 64-Channel Relay Multiplexer

The HP E1460A high-density relay multiplexer is a C - size, 1-slot, register- based VXI module. This 64 - channel multiplexer, using latching armature switches, offers a highly configurable, high point-count switching topology. Switching topologies include 64 two - wire, 32 three-wire, 32 four-wire, or 128 single- ended latching relay channels. This multiplexer consists of a component card with switches (labeled E1460-66202) and the HP QUIC screw terminal block (HP E1460-80011) that plugs onto the component card.

Use of SCPI commands or status bit jumpers on the terminal card configures the HP E1460A “wire mode” as either a 128x1-wire, 64x2-wire, 32x3-wire, or 32x4 - wire multiplexer.

Applications for the HP E1460A include wire harness and cable testing, semiconductor testing, and printed circuit board testing.
