Consider a regulated voltage output that needs to be checked. Three colored DC digital bench voltmeters (DVM) are available: red (DVM-1), green (DVM-2), and blue (DVM-3). Determine which one provides the best measurement uncertainty, i.e., in the reading result , and provide the value of the uncertainty found for that DVM. Assume that all of them provide the same reading .
The accuracy performance for each DVM is summarized below.
| DVM-1 | DVM-2 | DVM-3 | |||
| display: 3 | display: 3 | display: 3 | |||
| range | accuracy | range | accuracy | range | accuracy |
| 400 mV | 0.5 % + 5 LSD | 500 mV | 0.6 % + 5 LSD | 600 mV | 0.1 % + 9 LSD |
| 4 V | 0.6 % + 4 LSD | 5 V | 0.7 % + 3 LSD | 6 V | 0.3 % + 8 LSD |
| 40 V | 0.7 % + 3 LSD | 50 V | 0.7 % + 2 LSD | 60 V | 0.3 % + 6 LSD |
