Overview
Static charges may build up on integrated circuits as they vibrate and slide in shipping tubes or on PC boards due to contact with protective packaging materials. The MonroeTM 284 nanocoulomb meter is ideal to help select and evaluate packaging materials. It allows you to take direct charge measurements by dropping materials into the optional Faraday cup. The charge is then transferred to the cup and measured. You can also use an oscilloscope probe to take charge measurements on smaller objects and omit the Faraday cup.
Benefits
- Simplify operations
- Use with minimal training
- Use with ordinary oscilloscope probe for contact measurement of small objects
- Measure the performance of ESD materials
Features
- Portable, self-contained
- Battery-powered
- Easy to operate
- Large LCD display
- Two ranges
- Interchangeable cups
- Analog output
- Meets requirements of EIA-541 standard
- Point contact measurement of small areas
