Overview
The 1880 Milliohmmeter is ideally suited for a wide variety of low-ohm resistance
measurements of switches, relays, connector contacts, printed circuit board tracks and
other resistive items. The instrument offers nine measurement ranges from 2M
to 1
over seven current ranges from 1
A to 1A. A basic measurement accuracy of 0.05%
coupled with a fast measurement speed of 5meas/sec and built-in comparator for
Go/NoGo testing makes the unit ideal for fast and precise testing in a production
environment.
A handler interface and optional IEEE-488 interface are also available to adapt the
instrument for production and automatic system applications.
The instrument is supplied in a bench configuration, i.e., in a cabinet with resilient feet
for placement on a table. A bail is provided under the front edge so that the instrument
can be tilted back for convenient operator viewing.
