Hi guys,
I've been reading on this site for some time, this seems to be the place to hangout when it comes to electronics
Recently a friend lent me his Fluke 179. Using it with thermocouples I wondered why this and a lot of other cheaper devices are able to measure such small voltages.
0,1°C with a K-Type thermometer are some 4µV.
OK, not with super accuracy, but the smallest DCmV range has 100 µV resolution (600mV).
Just curious do these meters have a seperate circuit for thermocouples?
Why isn't there some 60mV range, if the hardware is obviously capable?
