Overview

The CB-series Crossbar matrix adds convenience and flexibility in environments where units or devices under test (UUT/DUT) contain multiple input/output signals or high-speed communication buses. Users can easily switch input signals to any unique output port without having to connect and disconnect them from the setup, facilitating faster and more efficient testing operations.

Benefits

Adding convenience to function, Crossbar matrices deliver a host of benefits, including:

  • High configurability up to 12 inputs by 12 outputs
  • Innovative software features:
  • Built-in firmware to add, remove and address switches for trouble free switch replacement
  • Application configuration available through “configuration file” - transferred via HTTP, USB or COM ports
  • Ability to track the life of each switch
  • Field upgradable firmware via boot loader

Problems Solved

Since any input can be connected to any output at will, Crossbar matrices are applicable for complex testing situations, including:

  • Complex test setups and signal switching
  • Testing of multiple UUT/DUT (units/devices under test) with many input/output signals
  • Testing of multiple UUT/DUT (units/devices under test) with high-speed communication buses
