The HP3457A is a very high precision multimeter which measures:
-
Voltage DC, AC and DC+AC volts
-
Currents in AC, DC or DC+AC
-
Resistance two and four wire connection
-
Frequency
-
Period
The instrument can do slower high resolution measurements to 6 1/2 digits and up to 7 1/2 in math mode, or up to 1000 readings/seconds with the lowest digit resolution mode. The instrument has a HP-Interface bus. Mathematical functions. On the backside there can be installed a plug-in-option 44491A Armature Relay Mulitplexer Assembly or 44492A Reed Relay Multiplexer Assembly.
In all cases of my experience, I checked these types of instruments with high quality standards in a certified calibration labority, the instruments were always better than the given specification, even after long periods of recalibration! My compliments to the manufactorer.
SIMPLIFIED SPECIFICATION (not complete, the original specification is much more detailed, taken from a year 1988 service manual)
DC VOLTAGE INPUT CHARACTERISTICS:
6 full scale ranges from 30mV (max.10nV resolution) to 300V (max. 100µV resolution) Input Resistance for 30mV to 3V range 10 gigaohms
Input Resistance for 30V to 300V range 10 megohms
Maximum Input Voltage: HI or LO to Earth Ground +/-450V peak
Measurement Accuracy: +/-(% of reading + Number of Counts) with Auto Zero ON
DC VOLTAGE ACCURACY 24 HOUR Tcal +/-1¡ÆC 2h warm up Accuracy relative to calibrated standard 24 hour specifications apply if the instrument is calibrated between 90% and 100% of full scale. For calibration between 33% and 90% of full-scale, add 0.00015% to %Reading :

PLC = Integration in Power Line Cycles. When using integration times of 100 PLC, 10 PLC, or 1 PLC; multiply Number of Counts in the table by 0.1 for 5 1/2 digit readings, 0.01 for 4 1/2 digit readings and 0.001 for 3 1/2 digit readings. Tcal = Temperature ambient during calibration (should 18-28¡ÆC).
TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT: +/-(% of Reading + Number of Counts)/¡ÆC 6 1/2 digits displayed, Auto zero OFF are given for a stable environment (+/-1¡ÆC) and over a ten minute period. Multiply number of counts by 0.1 for 5 1/2 digits, 0.01 for 4 1/2 digits and 0.001 for 3 1/2 digits.
