This unit
The Keysight E1346A is a B-size, 1-slot VXI module engineered for high-speed data acquisition and analog switching in precision test environments. It has 48 single-ended analog input channels with dedicated low and guard terminals, enabling flexible signal routing and isolation. Reed relays deliver break-before-make switching with 10^8 operations at no load and 10^7 operations at rated load.
The module scans at 600 channels/second and maintains open relay states during power down and power up for safety-critical applications.
Technical Specifications

Compatibility & Integration The E1346A operates in B-size VXI mainframes (Agilent E1300B, E1301B) and C-size mainframes with the E1403C active adapter. Analog bus connectivity supports direct measurement with Keysight E1326B and E1411B DMMs, as well as slot-adjacent multiplexer modules. External wiring connects via optional screw terminal blocks.
Agilent / Keysight E1346A — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Agilent / Keysight E1346A. Calibration covers all module-specific parameters per manufacturer datasheet, output accuracy and linearity, frequency accuracy, and VXI register and trigger bus compliance. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common Agilent / Keysight E1346A faults: relay contact wear, DAC/ADC drift, VXI backplane connector oxidation. Common faults include relay contact wear, DAC or ADC gain drift, and VXI backplane edge connector oxidation. Most modules are repaired at the component level with full post-repair verification in a C-size or D-size mainframe.
