Model 6487 Reference Manual
The 2V analog output signal is not corrected during calibration. Gain errors of up to 2.5%
may appear at this output, depending on range.
The output impedance is <100¾. To minimize the effects of loading, the input impedance
of the device connected to the ANALOG OUT should be as high as possible. For example,
for a device that has an input impedance of 1M¾, the error due to loading will be approxi-
mately 0.01%. High capacitance connected to the analog output will increase the rise time.
An internal 1k¾ resistance is connected between COM and analog common for protec-
tion. The effects of this resistance on analog output accuracy are negligible.
Rel and the result of mX+b, m/X+b, or LOG have no affect on the analog output. The 2V
analog output is scaled only to the actual input.
