Overview

The 6161 is a programmable DC voltage/current generator that uses a PWM system in the reference voltage generation block for high stability and accuracy. The DC voltage can be output over a wide range of 10nV to ±1199.999V and the DC current over a wide range of 1nA to ±119.9999mA. The stability of the DC voltage generation is 30ppm (typical value for six months). Therefore, the DC voltage can be widely used for the calibration of a digital voltmeter or analog indicator instrument or as a generation source for a variety of tests. Up to a 100-step program to control the voltage/current generation operation can be set by hand or by using GPIB commands. This program data is backed up by a battery. A remote function is provided as a standard feature so that the functions required for measurement such as the digit level for each setting, range polarity and limiter can be set from PC.
