Old Fluke Multimeters
bd139:
It's a different IC. Similar design, at least from the 8000 flukes. I think the story is that Fluke developed the original IC with Intersil as a foundry and Intersil nicked part of it and sold the ICL7xxx series and Fluke weren't happy.

Yep, info all about this in posts #1 and 17 of this thread.

Not at all. The 8060A has 20000 counts while the 7106/07 has only 2000 counts.
What tautech and bd139 mentioned is applicable for the 802x series.

I think the original cap was an aluminium elctolytic and hence the comment on leakage current.
Electro Detective:
I didn't know EEVblog host DJ did a cool test/quickie teardown of an RS badged 8060A during "EEVblog #802 - Mailbag" Youtube, 'published on Sep 28, 2015'
Not sure if that YT link has been posted here already :-// well, here it is again for those that missed it
youtube.com/watch?v=F_REyGWNAmc
or hit on the Mailbag page here on the forum that has the embedded? video > www.eevblog.com/forum/blog/eevblog-802-mailbag/?all
The entire Mailbag is a good watch (as they tend to be :clap:) the 8060A feature kicks off about 3 minutes in, and runs for about 6 mins,
and yes 'That's A Knife' also does a cameo appearance :scared:
Please note: at about the 6.35 minute mark, clear evidence that pesky Fluke Cap Burglar rolled over that meter whilst in transit to DJ :D
