Generally, an electrical conductor is a long solid rod, often insulated. It may be rectangular, like the electrician’s bus bar, irregular in cross section, or it may be merely a conductive path through the atmosphere, created by a process of ionization. Most electronics professionals have measured the resistance of conductors typically using a volt-ohm meter. […]
Data streaming/visualization platform works with logging, 6.5-digit DMMs
A native integration mates the Keithley DAQ6510 and DMM6500 instruments with Initial State, an loT dashboard for data streaming and visualization for world-class, remote data access. Keithley and Initial State, both Tektronix companies, collaborated to integrate Initial State’s data streaming and visualization platform with the Keithley graphical DAQ6510 and DMM6500. This integration gives a DAQ6510/DMM6500 […]

Low-resistance ohm meter excels at tests with long leads
A digital low-resistance ohmmeter can deliver reliable results when using long test leads. The DLRO2, a 2-A handheld tester, is a candidate for use in production line testing and industrial applications. This robust and intuitive handheld instrument offers a ‘difference meter’ that allows for quick data comparisons. Applications that require long test leads are not […]
Overview of electrical measuring instruments, Part 3
In recent columns, we’ve given a quick review of some basic instrumentation common to most engineering work benches. Here are a few more instruments found in many engineering labs. Signal generator Signal Generator is a generic term describing various instruments, all sharing a single rationale, which is that a device under test (DUT) requires a […]
