Arduino Uno

27 Jan 2015

Hi all, I would like to know if it is possible to embed a multimeter onto any arduino? Or simply is there a way to load functions of a multimeter to an arduino?

In the next few weeks I will be putting together a video detailing how to use an UNO and other devices to perform basic Voltage and current measurement as an intelligent display for my power supply project…

Thank you very much peter that will help me so much with my school project. The basic Voltage and current readings will be sufficient.

In the next few weeks I will be putting together a video detailing how to use an UNO and other devices to perform basic Voltage and current measurement as an intelligent display for my power supply project published right here on the E14 forums with videos hosted on YouTube

it will show using the internal ADC and external ones to deliver better resolution and accuracy and displaying on various displays (LCD, LED etc)

here is the E14 link The Modular Bench Power Supply ++
Here is the YouTube channel thebreadboardca

If you cant wait then we'll see what we can do to help,
to be sure, you can implement several features from a multimeter (Current, Voltage, Resistance, Capacitance, Inductance etc) on the UNO and other micro-controllers with relative ease but the catch is as always accuracy, stability and resolution, these all come at a cost that can outweigh simply buying one. As an educational venture though, the process and learning is worth its weight in gold.

What kind of measurements are you wanting to take?
