  • How Does the M3500A Handle Temperature Measurements Compared to Dedicated Instruments?

    Built-in temperature functions support seven thermocouple types (E, J, K, N, R, S, T) and RTD sensors. Cold junction compensation and linearisation are automatic, giving accuracy comparable to dedicated temperature instruments.

    Answered by John LeggUpdated 25 Sep 2025
  • What Accessories Are Required for Full Operation and Are They Included?

    Yes, all essential accessories are included: USB cable, safety test leads with multiple probe types, power cable and software package. Optional accessories include scanner cards, specialised probes and communication interfaces.

    Answered by John LeggUpdated 25 Sep 2025
  • Can I Use the M3500A for Both Benchtop and Portable Applications?

    Yes. It has protective rubber bumpers and a carrying handle for portable use. Selectable front/rear inputs suit both benchtop use and rack mounting.

    Answered by John LeggUpdated 25 Sep 2025
  • What Accuracy Can I Expect From the M3500A Compared to Industry Standards?

    The M3500A has 0.0035% DC voltage accuracy on the 10V range, matching or beating instruments costing twice as much. This meets ISO calibration requirements and most laboratory measurement standards.

    Answered by John LeggUpdated 25 Sep 2025
  • How Does the M3500A Compare to the Agilent 34401A for Existing Test Systems?

    The M3500A has full 34401A SCPI command emulation, so it can directly replace a 34401A in existing automated test systems. It also has faster sampling and better stability from its custom slope integrating A/D converter.

    Answered by John LeggUpdated 25 Sep 2025
  • Can the M3500A Function as a Data Acquisition System for Multi-channel Measurements?

    Yes. Optional 10 or 20-channel scanner cards turn the M3500A into a data acquisition unit. It supports voltage measurement and temperature sensing via RTD and thermocouple inputs, with built-in cold junction compensation.

    Answered by John LeggUpdated 25 Sep 2025
  • What Measurement and Maths Functions Does the M3500A Provide?

    The M3500A has 11 measurement functions, including frequency, period, continuity, diode test and temperature. Eight maths functions (ratio, percentage, min/max, null, limits, mX+b, dB and dBm) remove the need for external calculation.
