1. Introduction 1.1 Product Overview The 12702A/B resistivity chamber is a shield box containing electrodes. It is used to measure the volume resistivity and surface resistivity of sheet, filmy and platy samples together with a voltage source such as the 8252 or 8240 digital electrometer, the 8340A digital ultra-high re- sistance/micro current meter, or the 6161 DC current voltage source/monitor.
