    Features of the 487:
    ·
    Resistivity measurements (<1Ω to >1016Ω)
    ·
    ± 500V source
    ·
    10fA sensitivity
    ·
    180 readings per second
    ·
    IEEE-488 interface
    ·
    Picoammeter/Voltage Source
    Manufacturer's specs and general information:
    ·
    The Model 487 is designed for measurement of low currents and very high resistances.
    ·
    It is ideal for low-level DC current applications, such as:
    o
    PMT current measurements
    o
    mass spectrometer current measurements
    o
    probe current measurements in electrochemistry
    o
    plasma generated currents
    o
    ion chamber currents
    ·
    This instrument incorporates all the capabilities of the 486, and adds a programmable ±500V source.
    ·
    This combination of picoammeter and voltage source provides a powerful high resistance meter and fast picoammeter in one instrument.
    ·
    The 487 makes current measurements from 10fA to 2mA.
    ·
    Two voltage source ranges are available: a 500V range with 10mV resolution and a 50V range with 1mV resolution.
    ·
    A PRESET button allows the user to toggle between two separate source values.
    ·
    The 487 sources up to 500V, measures the current with 10fA sensitivity, and then instantly calculates the resistance value, from 500mΩ to 5 × 1016Ω.
    ·
    The unit displays either current or resistance. Reading intervals from 10ms to 1000s can be programmed, simplifying tests that require a predetermined “soak” time.
    ·
    Two displays, one for current readings and one for voltage sourcing, permit the voltage setting and the measured current to be viewed throughout the measurement.
    ·
    The Model 487 is one of the most effective test instruments for performing such tasks as resistivity, I-V measurements, component leakage, and insulation resistance.
    ·
    A common test procedure, written by the American Society of Testing and Materials, D257: D-C RESISTANCE OR CONDUCTANCE OF INSULATING MATERIALS, is easily performed with the 487.
