A testing method for connecting a first group of input conductors to output conductors in which the number of switching devices connected to each output conductor at connections with the group of input conductors are summed individually, the output conductor having the least number of switching devices at these intersections is chosen, and the switching devices are summed for each of the group of input conductors having a switching device at an intersection with the chosen output conductor and the input conductor having the least number of switching devices is selected. A switching device at the intersection of this first selected input conductor and the first selected output conductor is chosen for closure to provide the first connection in the output combination desired. The process is repeated until all of the connections are chosen or one fails.

Method for testing switch matrices

A switch matrix including a number of rows of input conductors, a number of columns of output conductors, and switching devices joining selected ones of the input conductors to selected ones of the output conductors, the switching devices being programmable to make connections between input and output conductors, the switching devices joining conductors being positioned on a random basis.

Switch matrices using reduced number of switching devices for signal

A method for heparin neutralization within a blood bag containing whole blood and CPDA anti-coagulant, or the like, recovered from an extracorporeal circuit having heparin induced into the blood for reuse in a patient without further treatment thereof, by use of commercially available components wherein a modified blood bag containing CPDA and whole blood is infused with a calculable amount of protamine.
