Product Description:
The Keithley 6517 is a type of electrometer/high-resistance meter launched by Keithley. It excels in the measurement of high resistances and low currents, and is a global standard instrument for sensitive measurements in research laboratories. The Keithley 6517 belongs to the 6500 series and is a 5½-digit or 6½-digit (varies by model) electrometer/high-resistance measuring instrument with high precision and sensitivity. It can reliably measure current levels as low as 10aA (10×10—18 A), charge levels as low as 1fC, and resistances up to 10^18Ω. The maximum voltage measurement range is up to 200V, and the input impedance exceeds 200TΩ. The instrument is easy to operate, similar to a digital multimeter, and has multiple interfaces for convenient system integration and automated testing.
Product Features:
High precision and high sensitivity: With an input bias current as low as < 3fA, and only 0.75fA peak-to-peak noise, the load voltage is less than 20μV at the lowest range. It can accurately measure low currents and voltages, resistances, and charges with high impedance. For example, in research fields such as physics, optics, nanotechnology, and materials science, it can perform accurate low current and high impedance measurements.
Wide measurement range: The current measurement range is from extremely small values (such as 10aA) to 20mA; the voltage measurement range is from 1μV to 200V; the resistance measurement range is from lower values to 10^16Ω or even 10^18Ω; the charge measurement range is from 10fC to 2μC, and it has a full-scale automatic range function.
Built-in voltage source: Built-in ±1kV voltage source, with scanning function, which can simplify the leakage, breakdown and resistance tests of insulating materials, as well as volume resistivity (Ω - cm) and surface resistivity (Ω / square) measurements.
