    Introduction NOTE The 7701 module can be used with Keithley Models 2700, 2701, and 2750. All references to the Model 27xx apply to the Models 2700, 2701, and 2750. The Model 7701 is a 32-channel high speed differential multiplexer module and has the following features: •...
  • Page 6 Figure 1 Simplified schematic for Model 7701 With a normal 4-wire function selected (i.e., Ω 4), system channels 1 through 16 can be closed. These 16 channels are paired to channels 17 through 32 (channel 1 paired to channel 17, channel 2 paired to channel 18, and so on). When one of these system channels is closed, its paired channel, and channels 33 and 34 also close to connect the DUT to the DMM.
  • Page 7: Dual Independent Multiplexers

    Dual independent multiplexers WARNING Multiple channel operation should only be performed by experienced test engineers who recognize the dangers associated with multiple channel closures. Multiple channel operation ( ROUT:MULT:CLOS command) allows individual control of switching module channels. Multiple channel operation allows the switching module to be configured as two independent multiplexers. The Model 7701 is normally used as a single 1 ×...

  • Page 18: Channel Assignments

    Channel assignments The Model 2700 has two slots for switching modules and the Model 2750 has five slots. To control the appropriate switching module, the slot number must be included with the switching module channel number when you specify a channel. The chan- nel assignment is formatted as follows: where: S is the slot number CH is the channel number...
  • Page 19: Multiple Channel Operation

    Amps measurements The 7701 module does not support amps measurements. System channel operation cannot be used to close channels while an amps function (DCI or ICI) is selected. If an amps function (DCI or ACI) is selected and you attempt to close a system channel, the message “NO AMPS CHAN” will be displayed briefly.
  • Page 20 Applications Common-side 4-wire ohms measurements When using 4-wire ohms measurements and system channel operation, up to 16 DUT can be tested by the DMM. By using common-side (CSID) 4-wire ohms mode and the user configurable screw terminals, up to 32 DUT can be measured using 4-wire ohms.
  • Page 21 With the 4-wire common-side ohms mode selected, channels 33 and 35 are automatically controlled as follows when a system input channel (1 through 32) is closed. • Channel 33 is forced open to connect Multiplexer 1 (channels 1 through 16) to Multiplexer 2 (channels 17 through 32).

  • Page 25 Biasing and measuring DUT (dual multiplexing) WARNING Multiple channel operation is required for the following application. Multiple channel operation should only be performed by experienced test engineers who recognize the dangers associated with multiple channel closures. This application demonstrates how to use the Model 7701 as a dual multiplexer to bias and measure 16 DUT. An external source powers DUT, while the DMM of the Model 27xx measures the output of the DUT.
