I am seeking a switch with 5 positions that can fulfill the design seen here:
When the switch is in position #1, both sides will be connected to their respective '1' positions. When the switch is in position #2, both will be connected to '2', and so forth.
Is this a 2 pole 5 throw switch? If so, then I found some for sale. However, looking at their diagram, I am not entirely sure those switches accomplish my goal. Also, they are rather bulky, so I would prefer another solution if possible. Could a multiplexer/analog switch of some kind accomplish this? Or perhaps a combination of a mechanical switch + a multiplexer.
Edit: Rotary switches are too bulky and expensive for my application.
I appreciate any help
