INFORMATION
age measurements with five digit resolution and de voltage
and resistance measurements with 5 or 6 digit resolution as
programmed by the user. The 3455A employs an automatic
calibration (AUTO CAL) feature which automatically cor-
rects for possible gain and offset errors in the analog circuitry to provide maximum accuracy. A removable reference module permits external calibration
and resistance functions. The reference module can be
removed, calibrated and returned to the instrument, or the
module can be replaced with another recently calibrated
reference. A MATH feature permits voltage or resistance
measurements to be scaled into convenient units or to be
read directly in percent error from a selected reference.
The 3455A is HP-IB programmable for system applications.
