“What is the output voltage of the power supply?” This is one of the most common measurements made with digital multimeters. Similar questions arise about the frequency of oscillators, the value of resistors, operating temperature, or the input to a voltage controlled oscillator. It’s easy to use a digital multimeter to take any of these readings. But taking a single reading gives you only part of the story. An equally important question is: “How stable is the output of the power supply?”

We can frame these questions more precisely in statistical terms: What is the average value of the output, and what is the standard deviation? The Fluke 884X Multimeter has integrated analysis functions that provide the answers to both questions.
