🔍 Key Concepts

• Analog vs. digital meters – how the display type affects accuracy and reading error • Input impedance (circuit loading) – how much the meter itself affects the circuit being measured • Typical accuracy and resolution differences between a Simpson 250 analog multimeter and a modern digital voltmeter

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Does an analog meter usually disturb the circuit more or less than a modern digital meter, and why? • Think about which type of meter generally gives more precise and repeatable readings: classic analog or modern digital? • Consider what the word "load" means in an electrical circuit and how a meter with lower input resistance would affect that circuit.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which type of meter typically has higher input impedance (resistance) – this usually loads the circuit less. • Compare the specified accuracy (percent of full scale or reading) for a Simpson 250 analog meter versus a typical digital voltmeter. • Be sure you understand that "loading the circuit" means the meter is drawing current and thereby changing the voltage you are trying to measure.
