Keysight B2987A Electrometer/High Resistance Meter
Obsolete. Recommended replacement product: ▸B298xB series
Benefits
- 6½ digit electrometer/high resistance meter with battery power option.
- Best-in-class 2 pA range and 0.01 fA resolution provide unprecedented performance.
- Integrated 1000 V source supports resistance measurements up to 10 PΩ
Electrometer/High Resistance Meter B2987A with Battery Option
The Keysight B2987A electrometer/high resistance meter offers 0.01 fA (10-17 A) minimum current resolution and a 1,000 V voltage sourcing capability that supports up to 10 PΩ (1016 Ω) resistance measurements. The battery powered version can eliminate AC power line noise. This available capability provides an unmatched level of noise reduction, enabling low-level measurements that were previously impossible. The B2987A has a 4.3" (11 cm) color LCD-based graphical user interface (GUI) that provides multiple options for viewing data. In addition to numeric format, data can also be viewed as a graph, as a histogram and as a trend chart. These unique front-panel capabilities facilitate the capture of transient behavior and provide the ability to make quick statistical analyses without the need for a PC.
