1. 20% over-range on all ranges, except for 1000 V
dc
range.
2. Relative to calibration standards.
3. Any current measurement greater than 500 mA will have a temporary thermo-effect. If you wish to measure a lower current or offset current im-
mediately after a high-current measurement, ensure that the U3606A has cooled down.
4. Specifications stated are for 2-wire resistance measurements using Null math operation. Without Null, add a 0.2 Ω error. To eliminate noise interfer-
ence which may be induced by the test leads, a shielded test cable is recommended for resistances above 100 kΩ.
5. Specifications stated are for the voltage measured at the input terminals only. The test current (1 mA) is typical. Variation in the current source will
create some variation in the voltage dropped across a diode junction.
6. Specifications stated are for open test lead measurements with film capacitor or better, using Null math operation.
