How do you measure current on an oscilloscope Multisim?
How do you measure current on an oscilloscope Multisim?
Complete the following steps to measure the current:
- Double-click on the Oscilloscope icon to show its front panel.
- Simulate the circuit and observe the output on the Oscilloscope.
- Stop or pause the simulation when a trace displays on the Oscilloscope, as shown in the figure below.
Where is current clamp in Multisim?
Click the Current clamp button found in the Instruments toolbar. The Current Clamp is now attached to the cursor. Drag the image of the Current Clamp to the desired wire and click to place it. You cannot place the Current Clamp on a junction.
How does Multisim measure voltage and current?
To measure voltage in Multisim we use probes.
- Locate the voltage probe icon at the left hand side of the screen.
- Place this on a wire in your circuit.
- Locate a reference probe on the left hand side of the screen.
- Place this on the wire that you would like to measure with reference to.
- Select the voltage probe.
What does R mean in Multisim?
Ammeter resistance
Ammeter resistance (R)—The ammeter’s internal resistance.
What can I measure with oscilloscope?
The primary function of an oscilloscope is to measure voltage waves. Those waves are displayed on a graph that can tell you many things about a signal, such as: The time and voltage values of a signal. The frequency of an oscillating signal.
What does current clamp measure?
A current clamp measures electric current flowing through a wire, cable,busbar, or other conductor. The analog output of the clamp can be read by a voltmeter, oscilloscope, power analyzer or DAQ. It allows you to measure the current in a conductor without having to alter or disconnect the cable.
Where is ground in Multisim?
Keyboard users – type G to place a ground symbol on the cursor, and tap to place.
