[volt-nuts] Bls: “A Solid-State Reference System”. Author: John R. Pickering
Hi Frank, I also interested with the paper and paper from spreadbury and deaver if You don't mind Thank You yes I have this paper, size is too big, so I'll forward it to you directly. The patent to this 7000 standard is UK patent GB 258 356A, about removing of hysteresis of the LTZ. Actually, it should not function in the 7000 standards, as these run on 45°C, and therefore the temperature swing is too low, and there is usually no hysteresis at this low temperature. I also have several interesting papers from Spreadbury and Deaver, about stabilities / drift behaviour of LTZ1000 and LTFLU.

[volt-nuts] nA advice
Hello! I would like to measure insulation resistance of some defective load cells. The measurement should be done with no more than 50V and the full scale reading should be >=5Gohm. Accuracy of +-10% is enough (in fact it could suffice just to check if it's >=5Gohm or not). I have not been able to find a ready made instrument that could do this within a reasonable price (100 EUR); the normal insulation resistance testers go much high with the probing voltage (on the purpose, but this also lighten much the requirements on the sensitivity of the meter). It could be as simple as a led indicator "pass/fail", but at this point, why not to build a good frontend for a multimeter, so it could be much more useful? There are many way to do this and also many ready circuits (like the null detector in the mini metrology lab by Conrad Hoffmann) or in the AoE, but instead of making it from scratch, someone knows if there is something already made (or a kit)?

50V across 5GOhm is 10nA. Put a standard multimeter's 10MOhm input in series and you have 10mV per nA reading. Anything below 100mV is pass. My 2 eurocents.

Also, quite a few of the Fluke portable and handheld DMMs from the last 35 years or so (including the faithful old 8050A and the "80-series" DMMs) measure conductance (1/R) with a resolution down to 0.01nS (= 100G ohm). There are lots of them with this capability on the used market for $10 and up, and several are still available new (but not for less than Eu100, to my knowledge).
