Introduction to the Model 3721 dual 1x20 multiplexer card
The Model 3721 provides 40 differential channels and automatic cold junction compensation (CJC)
with the 3721-ST accessory. The Model 3721 has two independent banks of 1x20 two-pole
multiplexers that are ideal for general-purpose switching, including temperature measurements.
The Model 3721 provides a number of other features. In addition to the 40 channels, two fused
channels are supplied for current measurements. Also, the Model 3721 includes dedicated inputs that
enable 40 channels of 4-wire commonside ohms measurements. For thermocouple-type
measurements, automatic CJC is supported with the Model 3721-ST (screw terminal) accessory.
The Model 3721 uses two 50-pin male D-sub connectors for signal connections. For screw terminal or
automatic CJC, use the detachable Model 3721-ST accessory.
