Multimeter for Sale � Digital or Analog?

Article Category: Computers and Technology

Author Name: Franklin Williams

There are so many different types of multimeter for sale, so many in fact, that it can be hard to choose which one to go with. The most common dilemma that first-time buyers have to contend with is whether to buy an analog or a digital multimeter. Both forms of multimeters have their own set of pros and cons, which we will be discussing more in depth.
Analog meters, are also known as VOMs (after their functions, which are voltmeter, ohmmeter, and milliammeter). Digital meters are known as DMM, or digital multimeter, which means it has several functions as well. Back in the day, you would need a separate meters for measuring different values. What would have filled an entire electrician�s bag back then can now fit in the palm of your hand.
The biggest advantage that a VOM has over a DMM is that the analog needle makes it easier to see fluctuations in a changing value. To give you an idea of what this means, imagine driving a car with a digital speedometer and imagine driving one with an analog speedometer; you can more easily observe how fast you are accelerating by watching the needle of the analog speedometer cross through the gauge, that is not the case with the digital speedo because you will only be seeing numbers flickering in the display.
In electronics it is much worse, because you do not have your physical senses to turn to help you interpret the digital signals. At least with a car, you will feel your body getting pushed into your seat when you accelerate. There are some DMMs that have a bar graph feature that somewhat represents the fluctuations graphically, but it is entirely different as when you are watching the needle swing wildly.
Now onto the problems of VOMs.
First of all, standard VOMs have far lower impedance than a half decent DMM. Impedance is the function of a selected voltage range, with the specification known as �sensitivity�. With a typical sensitivity of about 20 kilo ohms per volt, when you choose the 10 volt range, you are putting a resistance of 200 kilo ohms in the circuit you are testing for voltage. Now, in most circuits you will be testing this will not have any noticeable effects, but it is still something to watch out for.
On the other hand, most DMMs have a 1 Mega ohm or 10 Mega ohm fixed input impedance regardless of the range, making them practically invisible as far as most circuits are concerned.
Second, VOMs are only limited to measuring volts, resistance, and current (voltage, ohms, and milliamperes). Almost all moderns DMMs can measure those three and much more.
Lastly, good analog multimeters for sale, at least those that are almost as accurate as most DMMs, are very hard to find. And if you do find ones that are good, those VOMs are a whole lot more expensive than DMMs with similar accuracy.
It is highly suggested that when you buy multimeters for sale, you go with DMMs instead of the analog models as they are more accurate, more affordable, and they have a whole lot more uses than the standard VOMs.
