Description
Recommended

Measurement amplifier U amplifies low-amplitude measurement signals from low-resistance signal sources for measurement with any chosen voltmeter or oscilloscope. By using an external shunt resistor it is also possible to measure small currents. Offset voltages can be compensated using coarse and fine offset adjustment knobs. Amplification (gain) can be selected in ranges from 0 to 5 powers of ten. High-frequency noise or other interference signals are filtered out by means of a low-pass filter with step-wise selectable time constants between 0 and 3 seconds. The output voltage has the same sign as the input voltage.
