"Sampling with 3458A" - When a Multimeter Becomes a High-End Measurement System

R. Lapuh, "Sampling with 3458A", ISBN 978-961-94476-0-4 

What can the legendary 3458A digital multimeter really do when pushed beyond its conventional use? This book takes you deep beneath the surface-from basic setup to advanced sampling techniques, signal analysis, and metrological accuracy at the ppm level.The author guides you through a world where traditional measurements evolve into precise digital signal processing. You'll learn how to use the 3458A as a high-precision digitizer, how to program it via GPIB, how to correctly configure sampling, triggering, and data transfer-and most importantly, how to extract maximum value from your measured data.Bridging theory and practice, the book explains sampling principles, aliasing, FFT analysis, and filter design, while also presenting real-world applications-from electrical power measurement to reference metrology systems used in national laboratories.

What You Will Gain:

• Significantly improved measurement accuracy and understanding of instrument limits
• Ability to use the 3458A as an advanced sampling system
• Practical procedures for calibration, power measurement, and signal analysis
• Deeper insight into noise, jitter, frequency response, and their compensation
• Ready-to-use algorithms and scripts (including MATLAB) for data processing

Where It Can Be Used:

• Calibration and metrology laboratories
• Electronics development and testing
• Precision power and power quality measurements
• Research and development in measurement and signal processing
