June 19, 2025: Keysight Technologies, Inc. introduces its Smart Bench Essentials Plus, a next-generation portfolio of core bench instruments designed to deliver improved precision and reliability. The new portfolio includes Keysight’s power supply, waveform generator, digital multimeter, and oscilloscope, advanced instruments that are comprehensively tested to meet and exceed industry and safety standards, such as ISO/IEC17025, IEC61010, and CSA.
Electronic designs are increasingly complex, with additional input and output variables, strict interoperability requirements, and rigorous conformance standards. This complexity means basic bench instruments must deliver improved power, expanded channel capacity, and enhanced precision. Development engineers rely on tools to deliver this, in order to perform numerous daily measurements that will enable them to quickly draw meaningful insights and make decisions based on precise measurements.
The new Keysight Smart Bench Essentials Plus meets this challenge with accurate and precise digital multimeters, high signal integrity waveform generators, reliable and responsive DC power supplies, and a very low noise floor oscilloscope. The solutions are designed for lower noise performance, suitable for development engineers who need to design, test, troubleshoot, and qualify electronics designs.
Key benefits of Smart Bench Essential Plus include:
Minimized measurement errors and precise results: Powered by Keysight Truevolt technology, the new solutions reduce errors from real world factors, delivering improved insights. In addition, the custom ASIC and 14-bit ADC deliver precision and low-noise performance measurements.
Ensure product quality and compliance: The test instruments are designed and rigorously tested to meet ISO/IEC 17025, IEC61010, and CSA international standards to ensure engineers can develop quality products with precision and reliability.
Improved productivity: Features visually intuitive, color-coordinated interfaces and standardized menus for ease of use. Built-in graphical charting tools simplify visualization and analysis of test results, while including software streamlines configuration, control, and automation to improve validation time.
Carol Leh, Vice President, Electronic Industrial Solutions Group Center of Excellence at Keysight, said: “R&D engineers face increasing complexity, requiring not only more accurate insights, but tools which can streamline workflows. At Keysight we have thoughtfully designed an integrated solution that can meet this demand, with automation at the core, providing ease of use and shorter time to value. This elevated set of instruments, equipped with proven pro-level measurement technologies, delivers precision and reliability, helping our customers to develop quality products faster.”
