Specifications
Parameter | Value |
---|---|
Operating principle | Gated integrator (charge integrating amplifier) |
Integration capacitor | Dual, software selectable in real time |
Input noise | < 100 fA rms + 1 fA rms per pF input load up to 100 pF (1 second integration, 100 pF capacitor) |
Input offset | < 100 pA, 15 to 25 C. Offset can be removed by zero subtraction |
Stability | Output drift < 200 fA / C / hour |
External accuracy | Better than 0.5% of full scale in use, integration time 500 μsec to 1 sec, after calibration with built-in current source |
Integration time | User selectable, 100 μsec to 65 sec |
Integration modes | continuous charge/current, charge accumulation, triggered burst |
External gate | TTL 10 kohm impedance |
Trigger modes | Internal (autorun), external start, external start/stop, sternal start/hold, message |
Digitisation | 16 bit bipolar, 50kHz effective per channel Built-in digital averaging gives 20 bit effective resolution for 32 integrations |
Auxiliary HV PSU | (Factory option) 0 to 1000 V programmable (polarity and maximum voltage factory selectable), 1 mA max. Noise and ripple < 0.1% |
Power input | +24 V (+/- 2 V) DC, 350 mA typ, 500 mA max |
Controls | Two rotary switches for loop address and comms mode/baud rate |
Displays | Status LEDs (power, device status, comms mode, data RX/TX) “HV on” LED |
Case material | Stainless steel sheet |
Weight | 1.64 kg (3.6 lb) |
Operating environment | 10 to 35 C (15 to 25 C recommended to reduce drift and offset), < 70% humidity, non-condensing, vibration < 0.1g all axes (1 to 1000 Hz) Vibration must be as low as possible to measure at the lower limit of the dynamic range |
Shipping and storage environment | -10 to 50 C, < 80% humidity, non-condensing, vibration < 2g all axes, 1 to 1000 Hz |
