What is an Agilent multimeter?

The 34401A is a 6.5 digit bench multimeter from Agilent. A multimeter is an instrument used to test and measure alternating current (AC) or direct current (DC) voltage, resistance, and electric current. Multimeters combine voltmeters, ammeters, and ohmmeters.

Does Multisim live have a multimeter?

Multisim 14.2 Help Use the multimeter to measure AC or DC voltage or current, and resistance or decibel loss between two nodes in a circuit. The multimeter is auto-ranging, so a measurement range does not need to be specified. Its internal resistance and current are preset to near-ideal values, which can be changed.

Where can I find multimeter in Multisim?

1) Multimeter To use the Multimeter click on the Multimeter button in the Instruments toolbar and click to place its icon on the workspace. Double-click on the icon to open the instrument face, which is used to enter settings and view measurements.

What does it mean when the display of a digital multimeter shows the letters OL and a flashing decimal point?

It means that mode of meter operation should be changed from the manual range mode to the autorange mode.

What does it mean when a meter has a high impedance?

In electronics, high impedance means that a point in a circuit (a node) allows a relatively small amount of current through, per unit of applied voltage at that point.

What does DC look like on a multimeter?

Set the knob to “20V” in the DC range (the DC Voltage range has a V with a straight line next to it). Multimeters are generally not autoranging.

What does the 34401a multimeter do?

. The Agilent Technologies 34401A multimeter gives you the performance you need for fast, accurate bench and system testing.

What is the resolution of the Agilent 34401a?

For example, the Agilent 34401A can measure 9.99999 Vdc on the 10 V range. This represents six full digits of resolution. The multimeter can also overrange on the 10 V range and measure up to a maximum of 12.00000 Vdc.
