Electronic Measurements and Instrumentation (EC-315)

Error: The difference between the reported value and the (usually unknown) true value of a quantity. Validity: How well an instrument (or measurement technique) reflects what it is purported to measure. Depends on details of the instrument, and varies with the operating conditions. Robustness: When the input to an instrument varies slightly, does its output stably reflect the changes, or does it become unstable, or chaotic? Reliability: Given very different values, or measurements taken at very different times, are the measurements consistent? Repeatability: Do repeated measurements, on a constant true value, give the same answer? Accuracy: How close is the mean measurement of a series of trials to the true value? Precision: How much do the measurements vary from trial to trial? Resolution: How finely can we and/or the instrument separate one value from another that's close to it? Mistake: .Human error.!

Definitions
Measurement : generally involves using an instrument as a physical means of determining a quantity or variable Instrument : a device for determining the value or magnitude of a quantity or variable Accuracy : closeness with which an instrument reading approaches the true value of the variable being measured. Precision : a measure of the reproducibility of the measurements; i.e., given a fixed value of a variable, precision is a measure of the degree to which successive measurements differ from one another Sensitivity : the ratio of output signal or response of the instrument to a change of input or measured variable. Resolution : the smallest change in measured value to which th instrument will respond. Error : deviation from the true value of the measured variable.

Accuracy and Precision


Precision is composed of two characteristics : conformity and the number of significant figures to which a measurement may be made Conformity is a necesary, but not sufficient, condition for precision because of the lack of significant figures obtained Precision is a necesary, but not sufficient, condition for accuracy.

T Srinivasa Rao

Electronic Measurements and Instrumentation (EC-315)

14

Significant Figures
Significant figures convey actual information regarding the magnitude and the measurement precision of a quantity The more significant figures, the greater the precision of the measurement When a number of independent measurements are taken in an effort to obtain the best possible answer (closest the true value), the result is usually expressed as the arithmetic mean of all readings, with the range of possible error as the largest deviation from that mean When two or more measurements with different degrees of accuracy are added, the result is only as accurate as the least accurate measurement.

T Srinivasa Rao

Electronic Measurements and Instrumentation (EC-315)

15

Types of Error
Gross errors : largely human errors, among them misreading of instruments, incorrect adjustments, and computational mistakes. Systematic errors : shortcomings of the instruments, such as defective or worn parts, and effects of the environment on equipment or the user. Random errors : those due to causes that cannot be directly established because of random variations in the parameter or the system of measurement.

Limiting Errors
In most indicating instruments the accuracy is guaranteed to a certain percentage of full-scale reading. Circuit components (such as capacitors, resistors, etc.) are guaranteed within a certain percentage of their rated value. The limits of these deviations from the specified values are known as limiting errors or guarantee errors.

Temperature Compensation
Both the magnetic fieldstrength and spring-tension decrease with an increase in temperature The coil resistance increases with an increase in temperature The spring change, conversely, tends to cause the pointer to read high with an increase in temperature Compensation may be accomplished by using swamping resistors in series with the movable coil

Galvanometer Sensitivity
Current sensitivity may be defined as a ratio of the deflection of the galvanometer to the current producing this deflection Voltage sensitivity may be defined as the ratio of the galvanometer deflection to the voltage producing this deflection Megohm sensitivity may be defined as the number of megohms required in series with the (CDRX shunted) galvanometer to produce one scale division deflection when 1 V is applied to the circuit Ballistic sensitivity and is defined as the ratio of the maximum deflection, dm, of a galvanometer to the quantity Q of electric charge in a single pulse which produces this deflection.

Introduction to Alternating-current Indicating Instruments


The d'Arsonval movement responds to the average or dc value of the current through the moving coil If the movement carries an alternating current with positive and negative half cycles, the driving torque would be in one direction for the positive alternation and other direction for the negative alternation If the frequency of the ac is very low, the pointer would swing back and forth around zero point on the meter scale At higher frequencies, the inertia of the coil is so great that the pointer cannot follow the rapid reversals of the driving torque and hovers around the zero mark, vibrating slightly.
