This unit
The Keysight E1508A is an 8-channel signal conditioning processor (SCP) module that delivers fixed-gain amplification and low-pass filtering for precision data acquisition. Each channel integrates a 2-pole low-pass filter with a 3 dB cutoff frequency of 7 Hz and a fixed gain of 16×, conditioning sensor signals across a 3.9 mV to 1 V full-scale input range. Built-in input over-voltage protection and open transducer detection safeguard measurement integrity across all channels. The module excels in low-frequency applications including temperature, resistance, and strain measurement when paired with compatible VXI scanning and control modules.
