Using Load Cards and Loads
Using the Agilent N9379A 48-Channel High-Density Load Card
C A U T I O N
5-84
The Agilent N9379A 48-channel high-density load card is
designed to work with loads mounted on mezzanine cards
inside the Switch/Load Unit with up to eight dual loads per
card.
Figure 5-59
shows a block diagram of the Agilent N9379A.
• The card is one slot wide.
• The card type is 06
• The factory default configuration is explained in
Power Supply
Configuration".
• The Common line (PwrX where X is the channel number) on
the input is brought back out to the input, allowing each
channel to operate in a general-purpose (GP) configuration.
This lets you switch in an external power supply while
bypassing the power bus of the SLU, for example.
Power Switches as General Purpose Relays"
• The card is not equipped for current sensing.
• The card does not provide flyback voltage protection.
• Loads are mounted onboard on a series of mezzanine cards
that plug into the load card. You can attach as many as two
loads per channel.
• Each channel is capable of up to 2A continuous carry into a
resistive load.
It is possible to close more than one channel at a time. The power
supply connections to the load card and individual channels are
rated for a maximum of 2 A continuous. Do not exceed these
specifications.
