Keithley DMM7510 – 7.5 Digit Graphical Sampling Multimeter

Keithley DMM7510 – 7.5 Digit Graphical Sampling Multimeter

The DMM7510 combines all the advantages of a precision digital multimeter, a graphical touchscreen display, and a high-speed, high-resolution digitizer to create an industry first: a graphical sampling multimeter. The digitizer gives the DMM7510 unprecedented signal analysis flexibility; the five-inch capacitive touchscreen display makes it easy to observe, interact with, and explore measurements with “pinch and zoom” simplicity. This combination of high performance and high ease of use offers unparalleled insight into your test results.
 

Capture Waveforms with the Built-in 1 MS/sec Digitizer

Capturing and displaying waveforms and transient events just got easier with the DMM7510’s voltage or current digitizing function. The built-in 1 MS/sec, 18-bit digitizer makes it possible to acquire waveforms without the need to use a separate instrument. The digitizing functions employ the same ranges that the DC voltage and current functions use to deliver exceptional dynamic measurement range. In addition, the voltage digitizing function uses the same DC voltage input impedance (10 GΩ or 10 MΩ) levels to reduce loading significantly on the DUT.

Wide dynamic range for drain current consumption profiling of IoT products

The DMM7510’s digitizer can measure the current drain in all the IoT device’s operating states. Capture µA sleep mode currents and transmit currents up to 1A with the combination of sensitive and fast current measurements from the high resolution, high-speed digitizer.

Make Demanding Measurements with Confidence

The DMM7510’s design makes the most of Keithley’s low level measurement expertise. Features like the low noise input stage and the 32-bit A-to-D converter allow this instrument to deliver DC accuracies typically only found in metrologygrade instrumentation—but at about half the price of those solutions. The DMM7510’s 100 mV, 10 Ω, and 10 μA ranges deliver the sensitivity needed to measure low signals with confidence when characterizing today’s demanding electronic designs. In addition to one- and two-year accuracy specifications, an auto-calibration function ensures greater accuracy between calibration cycles.

Designed for Higher Testing Productivity

In addition to its advanced touchscreen, the DMM7510’s front panel offers a variety of features that enhance its speed, user-friendliness, and learnability, including a USB 2.0 memory I/O port, a HELP key, a rotary navigation/control knob, and front/ rear input selector button. All front-panel buttons are backlit to enhance visibility.

The rear panel of the DMM7510 provides connections and controls that simplify configuring multi-instrument test solutions, including input connectors, remote control interfaces (GPIB, USB 2.0, and LXI/ Ethernet), a D-sub 9-pin digital I/O port (for internal/external trigger signals and handler control), and TSPLink ^® jacks for connecting to other TSP-enabled instruments.

SourceMeter SMU instruments, and the Series 3700A Switch/Multimeter systems. TSP-Link supports up to 32 units per GPIB or IP address, so it’s easy to scale a system to fit the requirements of an application.

A standard SCPI programming mode supports taking advantage of all of the DMM7510’s new features when programming remotely. In addition, the instrument is code-compatible with the SCPI language, which many other DMMs use. This code compatibility avoids the need to rewrite code that is normally associated with upgrading to a new instrument with new capabilities.

Capture and store more than 27 million readings

Capture a complex waveform profile, study long-term stability, or record environmental and life testing data easily. The DMM7510’s large internal memory buffer enables extensive reading storage of your device’s complete profile.

Flexible System Integration and Programming

To offer users maximum programming flexibility and simplify configuring multi-instrument test systems, the DMM7510 includes Keithley’s powerful Test Script Processor (TSP^®) system and SCPI programming mode. The embedded scripting capability allows running powerful test scripts directly on the instrument, without the need for an external PC controller. These test scripts are complete test programs based on an easy-to-use yet highly efficient and compact scripting language, Lua (www.lua.org). Scripts are a collection of instrument control commands and/or program statements. Program statements control script execution and provide facilities such as variables, functions, branching, and loop control. This allows you to create powerful measurement applications with significantly reduced development times. Test scripts can contain any sequence of routines that are executable by conventional

programming languages (including decision-making algorithms), so the instrument can manage every facet of the test without the need to communicate with a PC for decision-making. This eliminates delays due to GPIB, Ethernet, or USB traffic congestion and greatly improves overall test times.

TSP technology also offers “mainframe-less channel expansion.” The TSP-Link^® channel expansion bus and a 100 Base T Ethernet cable allow connecting multiple DMM7510 with other TSP-enabled instruments in a master-slave configuration so they operate as a single integrated system. These instruments include the 2450 and 2460 Graphical SourceMeter^® SMU instruments, Series 2600B
