DC Measurement Accuracy (Single Cursor) Test
Specifications
Example: Single cursor measurement 70 mV input @ 20 mV/div, 0 V channel offset with no averaging:
expected measurement error < ±[(1%(160 mV)) + (1%(160 mV) + (0.4%(160 mV)/2)] = ±3.52 mV.
Equipment Required
Connections
DC Gain Accuracy
±1% of full scale at full resolution channel scale
Offset Accuracy
±(2% of channel 1% of full scale)
Vertical Resolution
8 bits,
≥
12 bits with averaging
DC Voltage Measurement Accuracy
Single Cursor
±[(DC gain accuracy) + (offset accuracy) + (resolution/2)]
Dual Cursor
±[(DC gain accuracy) + (resolution)]
Full scale is defined as 8 vertical divisions. Vertical divisions are defined by the major scale settings above non-major scale
settings. The major scale settings are 10 mV, 20 mV, 50 mV, 100 mV, 200 mV, 500 mV and 1 V.
Vertical resolution for 8 bits = 0.4% of full scale, for 12 bits = 0.024% of full scale
