Hello all,
Newbie here. I am working on a project that requires an analog ammeter to monitor the current draw on a dc motor. The 100 mA DC meter is fine when the motor is running at any of its controlled speeds, typically reading about 10-12 mA, but chatters violently during the in rush at start up, and also when powering down.
Is this the nature of the beast when monitoring these levels, or is there something I can do to prevent this?
Thanks,
Crumpter
