can easily cut the combs for J802–J807 and J808–J813 to
provide bus or pin isolation between the various input/power
bus connections.
Using the Power Switches as General Purpose Relays
As with the E6177A and N9378A load cards, the N9379A
48-channel load card lets you use the load switching relay as a
general-purpose switching relay. See “Using the Power Switches
as General Purpose Relays" for more information.
Connecting Loads
Loads are mounted on the Agilent N9379A’s mezzanine cards
(Figure 5-62). Up to 16 loads can fit on each mezzanine card
with two loads per channel. See Figure 5-60 for details of card
placement and channel locations.
