B. Working Principle

The Metrix Plus DM 620 Digital Multimeter works by converting the electrical quantity being measured into a proportional electrical signal that can be processed electronically.

An internal Analog to Digital Converter, commonly called an ADC, converts this signal into a digital value that is displayed on the meter.

Different internal circuits are used depending on the measurement selected.

Voltage Measurement

For voltage measurement, the multimeter uses internal voltage divider circuitry to reduce the input voltage to a level that can be accurately processed by the measuring electronics.

Current Measurement

When measuring current, the meter measures the voltage developed across a calibrated internal shunt resistance and calculates the corresponding current.

Resistance Measurement

For resistance testing, the multimeter applies a small internal test signal through the component and determines its resistance from the resulting electrical response.

Capacitance Measurement

The meter evaluates the charging and electrical characteristics of a capacitor to calculate its capacitance value.

Frequency Measurement

The multimeter detects repetitive electrical signals and calculates how many cycles occur per second.

Temperature Measurement

When used with a suitable temperature sensor, the meter converts the sensor signal into a temperature reading.

True RMS Measurement

The True RMS function allows the DM 620 to calculate the effective value of an AC waveform. This is particularly useful when working with electrical signals that may not have a perfect sine wave shape.
