Multifunction Modules
A multifunction module combines two or more functions such as MUX,
GP, Matrix, Digital I/O or DAC onto a single module, making it possible
to implement a complicated switching application with fewer modules.
Therefore, the cost is reduced by minimizing the number of mainframes
and modules required.
Each separate function on a multifunction module can be operated
independently. For example, an Agilent N2265A can be used as both a
4 x 4 matrix module and a 16-bit digital I/O module.
The table below lists the available multifunction modules.
