@saturation mine is (4.3-3.96)/3.96 x 100% = 8.6% off!
Yes Aurora, you've dig well enough, this was a "crash recovered calibration data unit". Concerned, made some test after 30hours warm up, and twice the self calibration, probes compensated. The measurement to the Hantek circuit is still the same as (3) no change from last night, ie 27.4% off, but when testing other (AA and LA battery), i got satisfactory reading. so made me confused. how come the measurement is off at only certain value and correct at others? at a single frequency off 0Hz? does dso have calibration data at each volt level at each frequncy?
no. dmm my rigol
1) 1.366V 1.3-1.4V OK
2) 4.1V 4.1V OK
3) 3.96V 4.3-4.5V KO
4) 11.85V 11.8-12V OK
and to Simon, i checked the USB issue. when the Hantek is disconnected, i checked the USB post is 5.1V, which should be within spec. but when the Hantek is connected, the voltage drop to 3.96. So i believe the Hantek is hogging the voltage down, a bug? (i checked the trace i was checking is indeed come directly from USB power line).
