We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "IEEE488",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Half-rack supplies for flexible test regimes from
Safety Power Group, which we summarised at the time by saying "Safety Power Group offers the SM800 series of half-rack programmable power supplies".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release PSU tester eases integration using LXI from
Intepro UK: "LXI-based power supply test system addresses the growing market for AC/DC and DC/DC power convertors under 1000W in one single-bay cabinet".
In June 2007, we covered the news from TTi (Thurlby Thandar Instruments)
concerning its Fluke 8845A and 8846A
- take a look at Dual-display multimeters have graphical edge
which says: "The Fluke 8845A and 8846A are high-precision dual-display multimeters offering a wide range of functions for benchtop or system applications".
Take a look also at the news release from Lambda, Programmable supplies give more from 3U,
as well as PXI products hold hybrid test systems together from Keithley Instruments,
and RF analyser runs from the bench to the line from Keithley Instruments.
