How your 3499A/B/C Test System
Benefits From Upgrading to the New
34980A Switch/Measure/Control System

Application Note

This application note will describe
differences and advantages of the
new 34980A as compared to the
3499A/B/C. The 34980A
Switch/Measure System masters
switching, measurement, and
control features by offering a
superior selection of switch
topologies and system control
features. A state-of-the-art DMM
has been integrated into the
34980A mainframe providing a
wide variety of measure capability.
The 34980A mainframe also
includes standard PC connections
and instrument control options for
your ease of use.
Discover the detailed advantages of
upgrading your test system using
the 34980A in this document.

Measurements

One of the advantages of the new
34980A is its ability to make
highly accurate test system
measurements. The integration of
a high-speed DMM into the
mainframe enhances the 34980A
switch and control system by
providing voltage, current,
temperature, frequency, and
resistance measurements without
using any of the mainframe’s
available eight slots. The DMM
conveniently generates
measurement results in selectable
engineering units. Eleven
different types of measurements
can be made and are listed on the
page 2. The 34980A time-stamped
measurement data can be stored
or displayed and analyzed as the

measurements are acquired. The
34980A also has configurable
High/Low limits on each channel
that activate an alarm if the input
signals are out of the set range.
The 34980A’s integrated DMM
saves you time and money by
reducing the number of individual
instruments required, and
additional cabling for
measurements and triggering. In
comparison, the 3499A/B/C
switch requires an external DMM
or other measurement instrument
as well as additional wiring to
provide the same functionality.

Add functionality, streamline your test
programs, and reduce the physical test
system size by upgrading from your
3499A/B/C to the new 34980A
Multifunction Switch/Measure Unit.
