Hi,
I'm new here and not sure if this is the right place to ask this question. I'm not very well versed with electronics and yet I'm trying to design a circuit of my own to assist me at work but I've encountered a problem and I'm scratching my head on how to resolve it.
In the simplest terms, I want to create a box with switches on the outside to switch in 2 different circuits when I need one or the other to be active. Each circuit has 15 signal lines, which is where my issue is; Is there a component that would allow me to easily switch between the 1st set of 15 or the 2nd set of 15? I've looked at physical switches but can only find a maximum of 6 points, I've looked at relays but found a maximum of switching 2 sets of signals at once.
I'd like it so that when 1 set of 15 is active, the other set of 15 is completely isolated.
Any help would be very much appreciated! I've inserted the world's crudest diagram to show vaguely what I mean, I didn't draw all 15 signals to the component as I hope it's quite explanatory with 3 lines!
Thanks,
GC
