High-performance switch/measure unit provides
a low-cost, highly lexible measurement platform
If you use automated test equipment for design validation or manufacturing, you now
have a cost-effective solution for many test system applications. The 34980A multifunc-
tion switch/measure unit provides functionality that is easy to set up and use, with a fast
startup time. The 34980A helps you lower your cost of test and accelerate your test-sys-
tem integration and development.
The 34980A handles system switching up to 26.5 GHz and provides basic measurements
and system control. It also offers DMM measurements, counter/ totalizer functionality,
digital I/O with pattern capabilities, and analog outputs with basic waveforms-- all in one
low-cost, compact box. And with its standard connectors and software drivers, comput-
er-standard I/O, and Web browser interface, the 34980A easily integrates into electronic
functional test and data acquisition systems.
Flexible switching, measurements, and system control
The 34980A accommodates up to 8 plug-in modules to give you the lexibility you need.
Choose from 21 different modules to deine your own coniguration. You can buy what
you need now and add to it or reconigure it as your requirements change.
Whether you are measuring temperature, AC or DC voltage, resistance, frequency, current,
or custom measurements, the 34980A offers the functionality you need in a single box.
Switch in different measurements with high-performance signal switching up to 300V
with no external signal conditioning required. Choose between different switch types and
topologies with frequency ranges from DC to 26.5 GHz. The 34980A offers high-density
multiplexers for scanning multiple channels, matrices for connecting multiple points at one
time, and general purpose switches for simple control and high power needs.
Use the 34980A to route individual signals or monitor multiple signals over a speciied
period of time--monitor a single channel or multiple channels, set alarms, and identify
irregularities.
The 34980A offers lexible choices for system control. You can control external devices
such as microwave switches, attenuators, solenoids, and power relays. Or use the digital
inputs to sense limit-switch and digital-bus status.

Optimized for test systems
The 34980A has the performance you need for medium- to high-density switching/mea-
surement applications such as design veriication, functional test and data acquisition.
Your signals are switched to the right measurement device without compromising signal
integrity. Switch your signals to the optional internal DMM and achieve optimal through-
put on switch closure time. Or, if you prefer, you can easily connect to external instru-
ments such as DMMs, scopes, power supplies, and more. What's more, with the built-in
Ethernet interface, you can control the 34980A and collect data from anywhere on the
network. For a complete modular solution, use the 34980A together with PXI modular
products when more capability is required.
The rugged instrument comes with a variety of system-ready features:
