Excessive Significant Digits • Do not display more significant digits than can be justified • Area calculation: l = 27.4 cm, w = 18.6 cm A = l x w = 510 cm2 , not 509.64
Voltage Divider Equations Unloaded: Loaded: If RL >> R2:
Current Divider Circuit (1/2) If there are only two paths:
Current Divider Circuit (2/2) • In general:
D’Arsonval Meter Movement • Permanent Magnet Frame • Torque on rotor proportional to coil current • Restraint spring opposes electric torque • Angular deflection of indicator proportional to rotor coil current
D’Arsonval Voltmeter • Small voltage rating on movement (~50 mV) • Small current rating on movement (~1 mA) • Must use voltage dropping resistor, Rv
Example: 1 Volt F.S. Voltmeter Note: d’Arsonval movement has resistance of 50 W Scale chosen for 1.0 volt full deflection.
Example: 10V F.S. Voltmeter Scale chosen for 10 volts full deflection.
D’Arsonval Ammeter • Small voltage rating on movement (~50 mV) • Small current rating on movement (~1 mA) • Must use current bypass conductor, Ga
Example: 1 Amp F.S. Ammeter Note: d’Arsonval movement has conductance of 0.02 S Ga = 19.98 S has ~50.050 mW resistance. Scale chosen for 1.0 amp full deflection.
Example: 10 Amp F.S. Ammeter Ga = 199.98 S has ~5.0005 mW resistance. Scale chosen for 10 amp full deflection.
Measurement Errors • Inherent Instrument Error • Poor Calibration • Improper Use of Instrument • Application of Instrument Changes What was to be Measured • Ideal Voltmeters have Infinite Resistance • Ideal Ammeters have Zero Resistance
Example: Voltage Measurement True Voltage: (If voltmeter removed)
Example: Voltage Measurement Measured Voltage:
Another Voltage Measurement (1/2) True Voltage: (If voltmeter removed)
Another Voltage Measurement (2/2) Measured Voltage:

Another Current Measurement (2/2) Measured Current:
A Digital Voltmeter • Integrating Converter • Dependent on Vref • Dependent on Temperature • Independent of RC
DVM Example If
Measuring Resistance • Indirect • Measure Voltage across Resistor • Measure Current through Resistor • Calculate Resistance (Inaccurate) • d’Arsonval Ohmmeter • Very Simple • Inaccurate • Wheatstone Bridge (Most Accurate)
D’Arsonval Ohmmeter Need to adjust Radj and zero setting each scale change.
