Crossbar Xk
The crossbar is controlled via an USB module within the control computer.
The code from the USB module is transformed into an I²C bus signal.
This signal controls the individual relays on the relay board. Control is performed in
series.
The crossbar may apply 32 different signals to a test pin.
Up to 64 different pins can be switched, whereas 56 pins have been assigned different
functions.
The test bench uses the crossbar to communicate with the test specimen.

Connection box Xk
To facilitate troubleshooting, all 56 signals
(50 from the crossbar and six from the power module) are connected to
test terminals at connection box Xk. Therefore, the signals can be interrupted manually
or the current can be measured.
