DIGITAL MULTIMETERS
Designed to save time and reduce headaches, Tektronix and Keithley Digital Multimeters are built to do more so you don't have to. Each one is loaded with time-saving features like automated measurements, built-in analysis modes and front-panel shortcut buttons. Keithley's highly regarded high performance digital multimeters (DMMs) include 7½ or 8½-digit solutions as well as flexible broad-purpose DMMs.
CHOOSING YOUR DIGITAL MULTIMETER
To help you choose the appropriate digital multimeter for your application, the most common selection criteria are listed below.
1 Resolution
Resolution refers to how fine a measurement a meter can make. By knowing the resolution of a meter, you can determine if it is possible to see a small change in your signal. The terms digits and counts are used to describe a meter's resolution. A 6.5-digit multimeter can display 6 full digits ranging from 0 to 9, and one "half" digit, which displays only a 1 or is left blank. A 6.5-digit meter will display up to 1,999,999 counts of resolution.
2 Accuracy
Accuracy is the largest allowable error that will occur under specific operating conditions. In other words, it is an indication of how close the DMM's displayed measurement is to the actual value of the signal being measured. Accuracy is usually expressed as a percent of reading. An accuracy of one percent of reading means that for a displayed reading of 100 volts, the actual value of the voltage could be anywhere between 99 volts and 101 volts.
3 Measurements
Digital multimeters are capable of making a variety of different measurements. A basic DMM typically can measure voltage, current and resistance. Other measurements commonly supported are continuity and diode measurements. Continuity is a quick go/no-go resistance test that distinguishes between an open and a closed circuit. A diode test mode measures the actual voltage drop across a junction. Other possible measurement modes are frequency, period, temperature and capacitance.
4 Extra Channel Capacity
Many of Keithley's DMMs include the capability to add a scanner accessory, enabling measurements on multiple test points or devices.
