(Start with an introductory sentence stating the purpose/goal(s) of the lab. Did your readings of voltage and current from your galvanometer come close to the standard readings from the power supply? Consider uncertainty. Are all of your voltage and/or current readings consistently high or consistently low or inconsistent? If the values are consistently high or low, what is the probable source of error (power supply voltage, power supply current, galvanometer, etc.)? Be specific. You might have a different answer for the voltage than the current. Also, how close did your galvanometer voltmeter come to the multimeter voltage reading for the voltage of a battery? Consider percent difference.) Lab: Analog Galvanometers Updated 6/01/2017 (Phy 123L) .

  • Digital Power Analyzer Model 4301
    Model 4301 Modular Power Analyzer An All-Purpose Digital Measurement Instrument for Power Conversion Device Testing Model 4301 Modular Power Analyzer 0.1% reading and 0.1% range accuracy Up to 16 Power Analyzer modules in a single chassis 25 standard AC and DC, static and dynamic measurements Dual DSPs with 1MHz sampling rate 6 voltage and current ranges plus auto-ranging for increased accuracy Peak-Peak noise measurements, 10Hz - 20MHz Two Digital Logic Inputs per module Chassis communications through a PC/LAN with LabVIEW and IVI- compliant drivers Applications The Model 4301 Power Analyzer is primarily designed for use in automated test environments configured for simultaneous testing of multiple power conversion UUTs. The Analyzer’s advantage in this application are speed, size and measurement performance. Speed is achieved through having Model 4301 a single instrument capable of making a wide range of measurements dedicated to each test channel. Test system size is minimized through the modular single-card design, 16 of which can be fitted into a multi-instrument chassis. Measurement performance is achieved by deriving an extensive number of high accuracy measurements from a digitized waveform. This last capability is particularly useful where input as well as output measurements are necessary to precisely calculate UUT efficiency. 3 Instruments in 1 Through Waveform Digitization The 4301 Analyzer can be thought of as functionality equivalent to three instruments: a power meter, a multimeter and an oscilloscope. This capability is achieved through the Analyzer’s state-of-the-art, dual A/D converters with a 1MHz sampling rate that provides the data to make practically any power- conversion-related static or dynamic measurement provided by the three types of instruments above.

  • The Accuracy Comparison of Oscilloscope and Voltmeter Utilizated in Getting Dielectric Constant Values
    Proceeding The 1st IBSC: Towards The Extended Use Of Basic Science For Enhancing Health, Environment, Energy And Biotechnology 211 ISBN: 978-602-60569-5-5 The Accuracy Comparison of Oscilloscope and Voltmeter Utilizated in Getting Dielectric Constant Values Bowo Eko Cahyono1, Misto1, Rofiatun1 1 Physics Departement of MIPA Faculty, Jember University, Jember – Indonesia, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract— Parallel plate capacitor is widely used as a sensor for many purposes. Researches which have used parallel plate capacitor were investigation of dielectric properties of soil in various temperature [1], characterization if cement’s dielectric [2], and measuring the dielectric constant of material in various thickness [3]. In the investigation the changing of dielectric constant, indirect method can be applied to get the dielectric constant number by measuring the voltage of input and output of the utilized circuit [4]. Oscilloscope is able to measure the voltage value although the common tool for that measurement is voltmeter. This research aims to investigate the accuracy of voltage measurement by using oscilloscope and voltmeter which leads to the accuracy of values of dielectric constant. The experiment is carried out by an electric circuit consisting of ceramic capacitor and sensor of parallel plate capacitor, function generator as a current source, oscilloscope, and voltmeters. Sensor of parallel plate capacitor is filled up with cooking oil in various concentrations, and the output voltage of the circuit is measured by using oscilloscope and also voltmeter as well. The resulted voltage values are then applied to the equation to get dielectric constant values. Finally the plot is made for dielectric constant values along the changing of cooking oil concentration.

  • The Absolute Measurement of Capacity
    THE ABSOLUTE MEASUREMENT OF CAPACITY. By Edwakd B. Rosa and Frederick "W. Grover. 1. The Method Employed. The usual method of determining the capacity of a condenser in electromagnetic measure is Maxwell's bridge method, using a tuning fork or a rotating commutator to charge and discharge the condenser, Fig. 1. which is placed in the fourth arm of a Wheatstone bridge. This is a null method, is adapted to measuring large and small capacities equally well, and requires an accurate knowledge only of a resistance and the rate of the fork or commutator. 153 154 BULLETIN OF THE BUREAU OF STANDARDS. [vol.1, no. 2. The formula for the capacity C of the condenser as given by J. J Thomson, is as follows: * i_L a (a+h+d){a+c+g) 0= (1) ncd \} +c{a+l+d))\} + d(a+c+g)) in which <z, c, and d are the resistances of three arms of a Wheatstone bridge, b and g are battery and galvanometer resistances, respectively, and n is the number of times the condenser is charged and discharged per second. When the vibrating arm P touches Q the condenser is charged, and when it touches P it is short circuited and discharged. When Pis not touching Q the arm BD of the bridge is interrupted and a current flows from D to C through the galvanometer; when P touches Q the condenser is charged by a current coming partly through c and partly through g from C to D. Thus the current through the galvanometer is alternately in opposite directions, and when these opposing currents balance each other there is no deflection of the gal- vanometer.

As these errors must be compensated for circuitry of a real-time oscilloscope (RTO) are not only frequency to achieve accurate signal sampling [4], several correction dependent and nonlinear with signal amplitude but also depen- techniques have been introduced [5], [6].

  • Equivalent Resistance
    Equivalent Resistance Consider a circuit connected to a current source and a voltmeter as shown in Figure 1. The input to this circuit is the current of the current source and the output is the voltage measured by the voltmeter. Figure 1 Measuring the equivalent resistance of Circuit R. When “Circuit R” consists entirely of resistors, the output of this circuit is proportional to the input. Let’s denote the constant of proportionality as Req. Then VRIoeq= i (1) This is the same equation that we would get by applying Ohm’s law in Figure 2. Figure 2 Interpreting the equivalent circuit. Apparently Circuit R in Figure 1 acts like the single resistor Req in Figure 2. (This observation explains our choice of Req as the name of the constant of proportionality in Equation 1.) The constant Req is called “the equivalent resistance of circuit R as seen looking into the terminals a- b”. This is frequently shortened to “the equivalent resistance of Circuit R” or “the resistance seen looking into a-b”. In some contexts, Req is called the input resistance, the output resistance or the Thevenin resistance (more on this later). Figure 3a illustrates a notation that is sometimes used to indicate Req. This notion indicates that Circuit R is equivalent to a single resistor as shown in Figure 3b. Figure 3 (a) A notion indicating the equivalent resistance and (b) the interpretation of that notation. Figure 1 shows how to calculate or measure the equivalent resistance. We apply a current input, Ii, measure the resulting voltage Vo, and calculate Vo Req = (1) Ii The equivalent resistance can also be measured using and ohmmeter as shown in Figure 4.
