Measurements Cleveland, Ohio - October 6, 2004 - Keithley Instruments, Inc. (NYSE: KEI), a leader in solutions for emerging measurement needs, has published an updated version of its popular reference book titled, "Low Level Measurements Handbook: Precision DC Current, Voltage, and Resistance Measurements". The 244-page, sixth edition Handbook describes theoretical and practical considerations involved in the measurement of low DC currents, high resistances, low DC voltages, and low resistances. The Handbook is available at no charge at http://www.keithley.com/pr/006.html. A variety of chapters in the Handbook have been updated to reflect new measurement techniques for making accurate electrical measurements on today's small devices, many of which are down to nano-scale geometries. Chapter topics discuss proper use and configuration of nanovoltmeters, picoammeters, electrometers, high resistance sources, and low resistance sources. The Handbook also contains an updated Instrument Selection Guide, glossary, and a valuable Low Level Measurement Troubleshooting Guide. A completely new section deals with safety considerations when making precision electrical measurements. To request a free copy, call 1-888-KEITHLEY or visit http://www.keithley.com/pr/006.html.
