  • Patent number: 5864561
    Abstract: To connect one out of N signal channels (K.sub.1, K.sub.2, K.sub.N) each having a signal line (L.sub.1, L.sub.2, L.sub.N) and a channel zero line (N.sub.1, N.sub.2, N.sub.N), where N is greater than one, to one input of a (differential) amplifier (1) whose circuit is referenced to an associated ground (SN), a one-out-of-N multiplexer (2) is provided having 3N switching paths (S.sub.11, S.sub.21, S.sub.31, S.sub.12, S.sub.22, S.sub.32, S.sub.1N, S.sub.2N, S.sub.3N), a first (S.sub.11, S.sub.12, S.sub.1N) of which serves to connect the N signal lines (L.sub.1, L.sub.2, L.sub.N) to said input, and a second (S.sub.21, S.sub.22, S.sub.2N) of which serves to advance the N channel zero lines (N.sub.1, N.sub.2, N.sub.N). The respective inputs of the switching paths of a third switching-path set (S.sub.31, S.sub.32, S.sub.N) are connected to the respective inputs of the switching paths of the second switching-path set (S.sub.21, S.sub.22, S.sub.
