11713A Attenuator/Switch Driver Configuration Guide
This configuration guide will help you through the process of configuring a switching system utilizing Agilent’s 11713A attenuator/switch driver. The 11713A is capable of driving up to ten switch or attenuator sections. It drives with steady-state 24 Vdc and is compatible with any switch or attenuator that requires +24 Vdc common, with ground for individual line activations. Switch and attenuator control can be accomplished manually from the front panel push-buttons or automatically over the GPIB interface bus. For applications requiring more than ten pairs of drivelines, multiple 11713A may be used. Each 11713A comes equipped with two plug-in drive cables for driving attenuators. A variety of other cables are also available.
Contact your Agilent representative at the offices listed on the back page of this guide if you need more information.
