Solution for Basic Electronic Teaching Lab

The U3000A electronic instrumentation training kit provides a learning and teaching solution for electronic test instruments. With its multiple modes of operation, it offers an interactive learning experience to students. Step-by-step lab exercises enable students and engineers to explore the powerful features of Keysight Technologies, Inc.’s instruments and graphical test and measurement software. Com­prehensive teaching materials on test instruments provide a link between your teaching and learning efforts and the application of electronic test instruments in real-world scenarios. The Keysight U3000A training kit works with four basic instruments and one graphical test software: power supply, digital multimeter, digital oscilloscope, function generator, and Keysight VEE Pro 8.0. This makes the training kit an essential tool for your teaching lab. 

Training Kit with Power Supply

Power supply is one of the most  commonly used tools in design validation and manufacturing tests. The teaching and lab materials help students to better understand the key advantages of various power supply designs and ways to optimize the output.  

Training Kit with Digital Multimeter

Keysight offers a wide range of digital multimeters. The Keysight U3000A training kit enhances your students’ knowledge of the operation of DMMs. In addition, the students learn techniques that enable them to avoid measurement errors and to carry out fast troubleshooting processes.

Training Kit with Oscilloscope

For those who wish to explore the powerful features of Keysight’s oscilloscope, the simulated waveforms and lab exercises of the U3000A will walk you through each function in great detail. Your students can also learn how to select an oscilloscope that meets their needs. 

Training Kit with Function Generator

Function generator is an essential tool in design validation. In the lab exercises, your students will learn ways to produce and send various signals to the training board using the Keysight’s function generator. With the provided training materials, your students are able to learn operating principles and applications of various types of waveform generators.

Training Kit with Keysight VEE Pro 8.0 and IO Connectivity

The Keysight VEE Pro 8.0 graphical language environment software keeps  programming simple and less complex  development screen. This enables users to start making measurements easily. With the bundled teaching materials, students are able to learn the graphical programming basics, to control the instruments from their PC, to automate repetitive and iterative measurement tasks, and to send a measurement data to a log file. In addition, the 82357B USB/GPIB interface allows a direct connection from the USB port to GPIB instru­ments. The 10833A GPIB-to-GPIB cable allows flexibility and scalability without compromising the performance.

How does the U3000A work with your instruments?

U3000A + Power Supply

The Keysight E3631A triple output power supply is the most recom­mended model to be operated with U3000A training board. For operation modes 3 through 8, two regulated voltage supplies are required for the Digital-to-Analog converter (ADC) as negative supply (VEE = –15 V) and output voltage reference (VREF = +10 V). The microcontroller processes the input from the ADC in order to generate various types of signals for the lab exercises.

U3000A + Digital Multimeter

The recommended 34405A digital multimeter is used to teach you how to perform voltage, current, resistance, capacitance, frequency, and diode measurements in practice. Use the U3000A training board with the digital multimeter to understand measurement connections and methods.

U3000A + Digital Oscilloscope

The Keysight DSO3000 Series economy oscilloscope represents the best choice when used in combination with the U3000A training board. Going through the provided lab exercises, you will learn to analyze various types of signals or waveforms generated by the U3000A training board, including counter signals, square waves from a 555 timer, irregular pulse waves, triangular waves, and sinusoidal waves.

The automatic measurement functions of the oscilloscopes allow you to make and display any or all different mea­surements simultaneously. In addition, you will also learn to display a wave­form in a frequency domain using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) function and to filter a mixed sinusoidal signal using the digital filtering technique.

U3000A + Function Generator

The U3000A training board consists of an on-board timer and a crystal oscillator. The provided lab exercises guide you through the necessary steps to generate input signals using the Keysight 33220A function generator, to replace the on-board timer and microcontroller’s clock. You are enabled to control the micro­controller’s clock using the 33220A function generator and to observe the resulting output from the U3000A training board.

U3000A + Keysight VEE Pro 8.0 + IO Connectivity

Software Solution: Keysight VEE Pro 8.0

The Keysight Visual Engineering Environment (VEE) Pro 8.0 software provides you a quick and easy path to measurement and analysis. By keeping programming simple and utilizing the high-level task oriented “flowchart” design, Keysight VEE makes learning so straightforward that you can get started on your measurement tasks instantly. The Keysight VEE Pro 8.0 enables you to connect your instruments in 3 simple steps. The software also provides you a complete software solution in accomplishing your tasks easily. For instant, the Keysight VEE Pro 8.0 will enable you to connect your instruments, to perform mea­surements, to analyze, and lastly, to report the data. Besides, the Keysight Vee Pro 8.0 is able to handle different data types, providing automatic conversion and giving you powerful data handling capabilities with minimal complex programming.
