Abstract

A circuit connecting device is used to switch a characteristic of a circuit among a plurality of operating conditions. The circuit connecting device has a set of source terminals, a plurality of sets of receptor terminals and a selector for selectively connecting the set of source terminals to one set of the plurality of sets of receptor terminals. The selector simultaneously connects every terminal of the set of source terminals to a corresponding terminal of the selected set of receptor terminals. This results in the operating condition of the characteristic of the circuit being determined in accordance with the set of receptor terminals which is selected by the selector.
