Follow on Google News | Keithley Publishes E-Handbook on Precision Low Current, High Resistance MeasurementsKeithley Instruments has published a free, informative e handbook titled “Making Precision Low Current and High Resistance Measurements.”
By: Keithley Instruments The e-handbook covers several topics crucial to ensuring low current measurement accuracy: • Measurement circuit • Leakage currents and guarding • Noise and source resistance • Zero drift • Generated currents • Overload protection • AC interference and damping • Using a coulombmeter to measure low current Topics addressed in the e-handbook related to high resistance measurements include: • Constant-voltage method • Constant-current method • Guarding • Settling time In addition to these topics, the e-handbook provides two measurement applications examples: avalanche photodiode reverse bias current measurements and voltage coefficient testing of high ohmic value resistors. A useful glossary of low-level measurement terminology and a guide to selecting instruments suitable for low current and high resistance measurements, such as ammeters, electrometers, and ohmmeters, are included. In addition, links are provided to a variety of webinars, white papers, and application notes relevant to each topic area.
