Known issues for bench-top IC and electronic component evaluation
With limited bench-top space you cannot afford to accommodate Many benchtop solutions require a PC to display data graphically
multiple single-function instruments. and make interactive measurements.
It is difficult to place multiple DC sources, multimeters, etc. on your limited bench-top Requiring a PC to make interactive measurements is inconvenient and reduces
space. productivity due to time spent on PC interface issues.
Changing wiring for each measurement is messy, time consuming and can easily lead to Adding a PC to your instrument setup takes up valuable bench space.
