Pulse Measurement Error
You can use the DC measurement function to measure a pulse signal and
obtain its relevant average measurement quickly. The formula of the
equivalent DC average of a pulse signal is provided below.
where f(x) is the function representing the signal waveform over a period
of T.
Error may occur when the pulse signal is measured at low voltage range
due to saturation of the multimeter’s analog- to- digital (ADC) rail voltage.
