External low noise filter supplemental characteristics
The Keysight B2961A/B2962A supports dedicated external low-noise filters; they are available as an option or as an accessory.
They connect to the banana jack outputs of each Keysight B2961A/B2962A channel.

1. Time required to reach within 0.1 % of final value at open load condition. Step is 10 % to 90 % range. At 20 V range, 500 mA limit/1 A range
2. Time required to reach within 0.1 % of final value at short condition. Step is 10 % to 90 % range. At 500 mA (1 A) range, 20 V limit / 20V range
Load transient recovery time: Time to recover to within the settling band following a load change.

Supported
ranges
Voltage 200 mV to 200 V ranges (21 V maximum)
Current 1 mA to 1 A ranges (500 mA maximum)
Maximum capacitive load 50 μF (for 4-wire)
Dimensions
41 mm H x 58.2 mm W x 141.5 mm D (When the filter is inserted to the output connector of B2961A/
B2962A, the depth is 126.5 mm.)
Weight 0.3 kg
Note:
– The 10 A pulse range and programmable output resistance capability are not supported by external filters.
– For the current output, only DC is supported when using with external filters.
– The current measurement data monitored by the built-in voltage/current monitor can be influenced by the charge and discharge current of the capacitance inside of the filters.
