In many years of practical application the HAMEG Modular System Series 8000 has proven its value to the customer. The advantages of this modular system have been demonstrated by several 100,000 modules sold. The unexcelled price-performance ratio and the enormous flexibility of the plug-in system allow you to adapt your measurement set-ups quickly and cost effectively to changing requirements. You save space by stacking up to 5 instruments. This will offer you 10 instruments on a minimum of space. The blank module HM800 is available for your own designs to be integrated with the other measuring instruments. The power supply voltages necessary are available from the mainframe.

Noise, explained simply and easy to understand. Everybody knows the noise of a waterfall. A multitude of water drops collide and drop deep. The superposition of all the sound waves created yields the sound characteristic of a waterfall. This noise contains all frequencies from the infrasound to the ultrasonic ranges. Noise of all kinds is ubiquitous, also in electronics.

Beyond any doubt the oscilloscope is the most important measuring instrument if voltage signals are to be characterized in the time domain. Hence the analog oscilloscope is frequently still the first choice, even in the socalled digital age. This article describes some qualities of these instruments.

In the past 20 years, traditional power supplies consisting of mains frequency transformers, rectifiers, filter elements and linear regulators were increasingly replaced by switch-mode power supplies (SMPS) offering a multitude of advantages like global (wide-range) operability, much higher efficiency, lower bulk and weight and often lower cost.

Analog scopes are obsolete, they are succeeded by digital storage scopes, this message has become a standard, proven by statistics, however, it should be taken with caution as these statistics include socalled Combiscopes under the heading DSOs. A Combiscope is a combination analog – digital scope. There are sound reasons to rely on a Combiscope due to some serious shortcomings of DSOs.

Requirements concerning the circuit design of innovative products increase steadily. This article introduces the HM8118 auto balancing LCR bridge, which sets a new reference, with its (0.5% basic) accuracy and versatility in R&D, production, service and education.
