If you want to measure resistance and you know Ohm’s law, it seems like you have an easy answer, right? Feed a known current through the thing you want to measure and read the voltage required. A ...
You might think the probes in the picture are just funny looking alligator clips. But if you watch [tomtektest’s] recent video, you’ll learn they are really Kelvin probes. Kelvin probes are a special ...
Don�t heap all the blame for a wrong measurement on the DMM. There can be several less obvious sources of the errors. Testing assemblies and components usually includes checking the continuity of ...
Let's start with DC voltage, one of the simplest and most-used multimeter measurements. The DC voltage measurement is used to determine the difference in electrical potential between two points in a ...
In a perfect world, electrical insulation would allow no current to flow through it. Unfortunately, several factors can — and will — result in the deterioration and ultimate failure of electrical ...
In the second part of this series on the highs and lows of resistance measurements, I illustrated the differences between two-wire and four-wire resistance measurements on an actual low ohmic sample ...
This application note discusses the measurement process and the report of the thermal performance of a small outline SO-5 package. This process used a low conductivity test boards as per JEDEC ...
