The most flexible way to connect signals and instruments is to use a switching matrix. In a test application, there often are many more signals than measuring instruments, necessitating signal ...

Metal-matrix composites are either in use or prototyping for the Space Shuttle, commercial airliners, electronic substrates, bicycles, automobiles, golf clubs, and a variety of other applications.

A switching matrix used in a test system connects a signal on a particular column to an instrument on a certain row. Typically, there are more signals than instruments, so several voltage measurements ...
