HP E1410A VXI 6.5-Digit Multimeter


[ Summary ][ Features ][ Specifications ][ Ordering ][ Assistance ]

Product Summary

The HP E1410A 6.5-Digit Multimeter is a C-size, 1-slot, message-based VXI module. It offers DC voltage and resistance measurements at rates over 1,450 readings/s in the 3.5-digit mode or normal mode rejection of up to 90 dB in the 6.5-digit mode. You can measure true RMS AC signals from 20 Hz to 1 MHz with programmable settling times. Offset compensated ohms allows for quality resistance measurements by eliminating the effect of small series voltage offsets. Resolution, accuracy, and noises rejection may be set to optimize measurements speed. Extensive triggering is available.

Choose the resolution, accuracy, and noise rejection you need. Fast function-range changes allow you to optimize measurement speeds. For low-level signals, long integration times and the system guard yield the most accurate measurements possible. Integration times from 100 power line cycles to 0.0005 power line cycles are selectable for all functions. Resolution from 6.5 to3.5 digits is selectable as a function of integration time.

The DMM has extensive triggering capabilities, including synchronization with external devices. You can access the external trigger and voltmeter complete signals from the front panel or VXIbus (TTL trigger lines).
