The HP/Agilent 44702A is a high-speed voltmeter module engineered for rapid DC voltage and resistance measurements within the HP 3852A Data Acquisition/Control Mainframe ecosystem. Capable of acquiring up to 100,000 readings per second with 13-bit resolution, this instrument delivers the throughput and precision required for demanding R&D, manufacturing, and test applications. The module supports auto-ranging across multiple voltage scales, maintains an 8,000-reading buffer, and accommodates external current measurement via shunt configuration.
