The Keithley 7703 High Speed Differential Multiplexer is a plug-in module for Keithley data acquisition systems, delivering 32 channels of 2-pole switching with configurable flexibility to 16 channels of 4-pole switching or two independent multiplexer banks. Reed relays with sub-1 ms actuation time enable high-speed scanning across temperature measurement applications including RTD and thermistor monitoring. The module supports both 2-wire and 4-wire measurement configurations, making it suitable for precision differential signal routing in automated test environments.
