    Different readings when testing a diode on-board and off-board

    Hello, I have a two identical PCBs (one faulty and one non-faulty). The PCB has a buck converter (AOZ1212) to convert 24V to 4.5V. This converter uses a Schottky diode as flyback/freewheeling diode. When I was debugging the faulty board, this diode read 0.2V in forward bias, and 2.3V in reverse...

    Help reading multimeter

    Can someone help me figure out what the meter is reading in this photo? I've got the meter inline with the negative terminal on my car battery, trying to see what the car is drawing while turned off (having battery problems.) This meter is confusing to me for some reason... Thanks!!!

    Can a regular multimeter measure voltages in 400hz range?

    Hi, I’m building a test bench for some aircraft instruments and I was testing a Bendix 1964771-3 inverter(24 VDC) brought from eBay. The inverter should have outputs of 129VAC @ 370Hz @ 12VAC/18VAC @ 1110 Hz. The inverter was marked as untested but removed working from an aircraft I was told...

    Fluke 75 counts and counts and counts when measuring low ohms

    I was given a Fluke 75 Series II recently. It works fine when measuring voltage, and I haven't tried measuring current. When measuring resistances below about 100 ohms, I see it counting down slower and slower. For really low resistances (in the single digits) it can take a couple of minutes to...

    Multimeter Voltage measurement

    Hello there, I have purchased an auto ranging DMM, When i switch it to measure DC voltage and its measuring leads are not connected to any circuit (i.e. they are in open air) it starts to show voltages starting from 0 mV which increase up to 400 mV and again resets to 0 mV. Is it normal...

    cheap digital multimeter but it seems unreliable

    I bought a cheap digital multimeter but it seems unreliable. However, I do not have another one to compare with. To start with, I connect a fixed value resistor to it and the reading range is at 200k ohm. As the reading goes up and down, see if you can figure out what is the value of this...
