| Gratuitous Continuity Speed Test and Comparisons |

| KungFuJosh:
We were (in classic EEVblog fashion) derailing another thread talking about continuity speed comparisons. I'd like to consider this further, and have a standardized method to see what parameters to use while testing continuity speed of DMMs with an AWG. Some AWG screenshots would certainly be helpful too. It was also stated that we should have a second audio-based method to determine the time between detection and an audible signal. This seems simple enough for those of us with DAW or sound editing software. Other ideas? Discuss. 😉 |
| Fungus:
Use a relay to make contact. Use a microphone to record the click of the relay and the beep. Measure the time between the two. |
| KungFuJosh:
I want to get deeper into the methods people are using with an AWG. Some of the claims I've seen are questionable. |
| BeBuLamar:
I rarely use the contnuity test as I generally need to know the resistance of the continuity but I would do the test. |

That setting seems to have an effect on the speed of the continuity response as well (at least it does when screwing around with the AWG), which is one of the reasons I'm interested in testing this method further. |
