Ramp Technique of Digital Voltmeter: Ramp Technique - The operating principle is to measure the time that a linear ramp takes to change the input level to the ground level, or vice-versa. This time period…
Digital Voltmeters Features and Characteristics: Digital Voltmeters Features and Characteristics which includes measuring instruments that convert analog voltage signals into a digital or numeric readout. This digital readout can be displayed on the front panel and…
Working Principle of Multimeter: A multimeter is basically a PMMC meter. To measure dc current the meter acts as an ammeter with a low series resistance. Range changing is accomplished by shunts in such a…
Multirange Ohmmeter: The Multirange Ohmmeter circuit shown in Fig. 4.28 (a) is only for a single range of resistance measurement. To measure resistance over a wide range of values, we need to extend the ohmmeter…
Series Type Ohmmeter: Series Type Ohmmeter - A D' Arsonval movement is connected in series with a resistance R1 and a battery which is connected to a pair of terminals A and B, across which…
Considerations in Choosing an Analog Voltmeter: Considerations in Choosing an Analog Voltmeter has the following factors are to be considered. 1. Input Impedance The input impedance or resistance of the voltmeter should be as high…
True RMS Voltmeter: True RMS Voltmeter - Complex waveform are most accurately measured with an rms voltmeter. This instrument produces a meter indication by sensing waveform heating power, which is proportional to the square of…
Average Responding Voltmeter and Peak Responding Voltmeter: A simplified version of a circuit used in a typical average responding voltmeter is given in Fig. 4.23. The applied waveform is amplified in a high gain stabilized…
AC Voltmeter using Half wave Rectifier | AC Voltmeter using Full wave Rectifier | Multirange AC Voltmeter: AC Voltmeter using Half wave Rectifier - If a diode D1 is added to the dc voltmeter, as…
AC Voltmeter using Rectifiers: AC Voltmeter using Rectifiers - Rectifier type instruments generally use a PMMC movement along with a rectifier arrangement. Silicon diodes are preferred because of their low reverse current and high forward…
