Current sensor Sensors measuring current are referred to as “current sensor.”
S/s
The number of times per second the analog input signals are digitized by the
instrument is expressed in terms of “samples per second (S/s).”
Example: “20 MS/s” (20 megasamples per second) indicates that the signal is digitized
20×106times per second.
Accuracy
We dene measurement tolerances in terms of f.s. (full scale) and rdg. (reading) values, with the
following meanings:
f.s. (maximum display value or scale length)
The maximum displayable value or scale length.
rdg. (displayed value)
The value currently being measured and displayed on the measuring instrument.
