The National Instruments PXI-4022 guard and current amplifier is a PXI
accessory module consisting of a high-speed, high-precision amplifier
that conditions signals for measurement devices. With the guarding
functionality, you can make 6-wire resistance measurements for resistors
connected in a network, on complex printed circuit board layouts, or
cable test applications. For low-current measurements, the NI PXI-4022
amplifier and high-precision resistors create a feedback current
amplifier. This implementation minimizes burden voltages and converts
current to voltage, so you can measure pA signals with fA noise.

You can use the PXI-4022 with NI PXI-407x digital multimeters (DMMs)
for 6-wire resistance/capacitance measurements or ultralow-current
measurements in a wide variety of applications. You also can use it with
an M Series data acquisition device to form a low-cost, high-resolution
acquisition module for basic in-circuit test needs.
