Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model specifically relates to an easy-to-use video multimeter, belonging to the field of multimeter technology. Background Technology
[0002] A multimeter is a multifunctional, multi-range measuring instrument primarily used for measuring voltage, current, and resistance. It mainly consists of a meter head, measuring circuitry, and a selector switch. The meter head is a highly sensitive magnetoelectric DC ammeter used to indicate the measured value. The measuring circuitry converts the measured value into a small DC current suitable for the meter head. The selector switch is used to select different measuring circuits to meet various measurement requirements. Multimeters can be classified into two types based on their display method: analog multimeters and digital multimeters. Analog multimeters display the measured value by the position of the pointer on the scale, while digital multimeters directly display the measurement result digitally. Each has its advantages and disadvantages. Analog multimeters can intuitively reflect the changing trend of the measured value, while digital multimeters offer advantages such as convenient reading and high accuracy.
