Method of determining accuracy
• The measurement accuracy can be calculated from the impedance of the
sample, the measurement range, the measurement frequency, and the basic
accuracy A and coefficient B from the above tables.
• The expression for calculating accuracy is different in the ranges above 1 kΩ
and below 100
Ω.
• For C and L, find the basic accuracy A and coefficient B either by direct
measurement of the impedance or by approximate calculation as follows.
●Example
calculation
(The value A and B for the 3522-50)
Sample
impedance Zx:
500 Ω (measured)
Measurement conditions:
frequency 10 kHz, signal level 2 V, range 1 kΩ
From table above, basic Z accuracy A = 0.08, coefficient B = 0.001.
Inserting these in the calculation expression yields:
Z accuracy = 0.08 +
