DIGITAL MULTIMETERS & SYSTEMS
A GREATER MEASURE OF CONFIDENCE
DMM users whose applications demand exceptional resolution, accuracy,
and sensitivity combined with high throughput now have two attractive
alternatives to high priced, high end DMMs. Keithley’s 7½-digit Model 2001
and 8½-digit Model 2002 High Performance Digital Multimeters not only
deliver performance specifications usually associated with instruments that
cost thousands more, but they also offer a broad range of functions not
typically available from DMMs. The 2002 is based on the same superior
measurement technology as the 2001, and the front panels of both instru-
ments have the same look, feel, and response.
True 7½- (or 8½-) Digit Resolution
While other DMMs may claim 7½- or 8½-digit resolution, they must aver-
age multiple readings to extend their resolution. The resolution speci-
fications of the 2001 and 2002 are based on a 28-bit A/D converter that
provides the resolution needed to discern smaller changes. This higher
resolution also provides greater dynamic range, making it possible to meas-
ure from 1µV to 20V on a single range, thus avoiding range-shift errors
and delays.
Built-In Scanner (Multiplexer) Options
With the addition of a plug-in scanner card, the 2001 or 2002 becomes a
complete scan and measure system for applications involving up to ten
measurement points. The additional
resolution and measurement ranges pro-
vided by the 2002 make it an excellent
choice for production test, design verifi-
cation, and metrology applications where high accuracy is critical.
High Accuracy ACV Measurements
A patented circuit design makes the 2001 and 2002’s AC measurements several times more accurate
than competitive DMMs. In this circuit, the signal bypasses the prime error-contributing section of
conventional rms converters. This increases the accuracy at almost any voltage level, and also increas-
es sensitivity down to a guaranteed 1% of the selected range, compared to 5–10% for most other
DMMs. The result is highly accurate measurements over a broad range of inputs.
Applications involving vibration, servo, guidance, shock, and control systems often require accu-
rate low frequency ACV measurements. The 2001 and 2002 maintain very good accuracy (better
than 0.1%) down to 1Hz. The wide bandwidth of these DMMs allows for accurate measurements of
high frequency AC signals without the need for a special AC meter. Both the 2001 and 2002 feature
TRMS AC, average AC, peak AC, AC+DC, and crest factor measurement capability for a wide variety
of applications.
High Speed for High Throughput
In applications where high throughput is critical, both the 2001 and 2002 provide more than 2000
readings per second at 4½-digit resolution. At 7½ digits, the 2002 maintains full rated accuracy at
reading rates up to 44/second on DCV and ohms.
High Speed, High Precision Resistance Measurements
The Model 2002 uses a unique single-phase method for 4-wire ohms measurements. This makes it
twice as fast for a given power line cycle rate. This also eliminates errors due to changing lead resis-
tances that can result from fast test handlers. A built-in open-lead detection circuit also eliminates
many production test problems.
Fast, Flexible Triggering
Trigger latency—the delay between trigger and measurement—is often a barrier to higher throughput.
Also, variability in latency can complicate predicting measurement timing. The 2001 and 2002 trigger
is less than 2µs±1µs, which is much faster than typical system DMMs.
