Hi, HighVoltage,
might you please take a photo of R225, that is the 100:1 HighVoltage
divider, this white ceramic part, from both sides?
I'd like to know, if that component is also used in the new 34465A/34470A... I assume that their schematics are very similar.
May you please check also, if that component is heated (100mW), when you turn on the DC 1000V range without any input voltage.
The heating connections are in the schematics, pin5 , versus pin6 GND.
You should find up to 2.5...3.3V across this heating resistor.
Would you mind to measure the value of this heating resistor, please?
It should have less than 100 Ohm, probably 50 Ohm ,I guess.
Very interesting part & principle, anyhow.
Thanks a lot
Frank
