Abstract
A portable hand-held electrical testing device including a processor housed within an enclosure. The processor is configured to operate on commands by a user to process sub-microvolt electrical signals received through an input/output interface. The input/output interface includes a capacitive coupled amplifier with adjustable gain settings. Onboard memory linked to the processor stores processing data and instructions. A display device is mounted to said enclosure and is operatively connected to the processor to display processing results in real time.
