The 34465A will be around US$1500 The 34470A will be <US$3000 Options will cost extra, in the order of hundreds of dollars. And yes, I might be able to get one soon for teardown. --- End quote --- Yes, Techni-tool who virtually never discounts has the 34465A for $1395, and the 34470A for $2895. http://www.techni-tool.com/431TE3446 http://www.techni-tool.com/431TE3447 --- End quote --- Techni-tool appears to have scrubbed those pages. Any other confirmation or delivery date information? --- End quote --- The model numbers are easily found on the Keysight site, so looks like it is fully public now. 7.5 digit - 34470A $2890 6.5 digit - 34465A $1395 |

There are more feature upgrades in the 65/70 and updates in the 60/61 than meet the eye. From a quick look at the new user manual: * Datalog from front panel (65/70 only). * Digitizing from front panel (65/70 with $400 DIG option) * Advanced triggering (65/70 with $400 DIG option) * Zoom/pan/cursors in datalog and digitizing modes (oscilloscope!) (65/70 only) * Histogram cursors (65/70 only) * More data memory (65/70 only) * Optional 2MB memory (65/70 only with $250 MEM option) * Aperture time instead of NPLC (65/70 only) * ACAL. The manual does not exclude the 60/61 from ACAL even though the datasheet does (ALL - NEW for 60/61- to be confirmed). * Extended calibration status window with ACAL-related info (ALL - NEW for 60/61 TBC) * 1uA and 10uA ranges (65/70 only) * Resistance offset compensation (looks like the U1272A Smart Ohms) (65/70 only) * Resistance low power mode (lower test current to reduce self-heating) (65/70 only) * 1GOhm range (65/70 only) * Capacitance measurement (ALL - NEW for 60/61) * Thermocouple temp measurements (65/70 only) * Temperature low power setting (65/70 only) * Smoothing filter (65/70 only) * More math scaling: % and Mx-B (65/70 only) * Partial 2nd measurement display (e.g. ACV while DCV primary) (NEW for 60/61) * Full 2nd measurement display - includes pre-math and 16us peak stats (65/70 only) |

Revision 2.07 should be available on the Web around March 16th. You can upgrade the firmware yourself by downloading the firmware update utility that is also on the web, along with the firmware file itself. Note that after you upgrade the firmware, the capacitance function is accessed by pressing: Shift ? Freq Older instruments such as yours will not have the symbol above the Freq key as the newer instruments will. |

Everything else is done at the same time. |
