The Agilent 34970A offers unequaled versatility
for your data acquisition applications
In the past, you had to make a choice. On the one
hand, you could choose the simple operation and
low cost of a data logger. On the other hand, you
had the flexibility and higher performance of
a modular data acquisition system. The Agilent
34970A Data Acquisition/Switch Unit gives you
the best of both worlds: a simple user interface
with low per-channel cost, modular flexibility,
and impressive measurement performance.
Whether you’re an R&D engineer working on char-
acterizing your latest design, or a manufacturing
engineer building a test system or troubleshooting
a process, the 34970A Data Acquisition/Switch
Unit offers the best combination of price and meas-
urement performance.
It’s a data logger:
Configured with a 20-channel relay multiplexer,
the 34970A becomes a powerful, low-cost data
logger for simple characterization applications—
one that’s quick to set up and easy to run. For
more information on using the 34970A for data
logging applications, see page 6.
It’s a data acquisition front-end:
The 34970A is an automated test system with
excellent measurement performance—it’s got the
accuracy, resolution, and speed you need. See
page 8 for application information.
It’s a switch system:
Order the mainframe without the internal DMM
and you’ve got an even lower cost, high-quality
signal routing solution. See page 10 for details.
