The DAQ3120 from B+K Precision lets you install up to three measurement modules to create a custom system for your bench. Most engineers have a digital multimeter (DMM) for basic measurements such as voltage, current, and resistance. Sometimes, however, you need the flexibility to add channels and log measurements without or without a computer. That’s […]

APEC 2025 test equipment: power sources and loads
Powering electronic devices requires the testing of power supply and charging circuits, battery management systems (BMSs), and battery cells. Many of these circuits require voltage, current, and power measurements, plus numerous others. Oscilloscopes and probes let you see the waveforms in power-delivery circuits, but the circuits themselves may need simulated batteries and simulated loads. That’s […]
Modular 4-channel power supply mounts in a test rack
B&K Precision announces the MPS Series. This series delivers up to four output channels and 1200 W of power in a compact 1U mainframe. Users can configure a customized 1-to-4 channel DC power system by selecting from eight interchangeable modules. The modules support various voltage/current output ratings and are capable of generating 100 W (multi-range) […]
Tester evaluates internal battery electrochemical and electrical properties
The BA8100 is designed to test batteries using a complex AC measurement technique known as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Through this technique, the BA8100 derives the internal impedance of a battery across a wide frequency sweep. The acquired data is used to display a graphical representation of electrochemical processes occurring within the battery. The BA8100 […]

The 2194 combines performance and value all in one portable solution. This oscilloscope provides 100 MHz of bandwidth in a four-channel configuration with a maximum sample rate of 1 GSa/sec and a maximum memory depth of 14 Mpts. Equipped with a 7-in LCD screen and a waveform update rate of 100,000 waveforms per second, this […]
Economical scopes now include zone triggers, Bode plots and power analysis
The 2560B Digital Storage (DSO) and Mixed Signal Oscilloscope (MSO) Series offers 100 MHz, 200 MHz and 350 MHz bandwidth models in a four-channel configuration, with a sample rate of 2 GSa/sec and a maximum memory depth of 200 Mpts. Additionally, these oscilloscopes are equipped with a large 10.1-in capacitive touch display that provide 1,024 […]
Programmable ac sources provide low THD in 3U form factor
The 9830B Series programmable ac power sources provide high performance and low total harmonic distortion in a 3U form factor. Offering 2,000 VA or 3,000 VA models, the new 9832B and 9833B provide the ability to connect three instruments to create a three-phase ac power source using the convenient three-phase kit (TL983P-KIT) option. The adapters […]
Remote Communication with USBTMC
Simple connections employing USB can replace more expensive GPIB setups in test instrumentation. Aaron Fernando, B&K Precision Corp. Engineers from a variety of industries use USB and USBTMC (USB Test & Measurement Class) to remotely control test and measurement instruments from a host computer. It is useful to compare USBTMC to the widely used GPIB […]
