Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A digital voltmeter measures a voltage of 5V with a gain drift of 10ppm and an offset drift causing a 0.5V error. If the temperature changes by 40°C, what will be the apparent voltage reading?

💡 Hint: Analyze the gains and offsets separately to find the overall effect.

Challenge 2 Hard

Discuss how temperature compensation circuits can be designed to minimize gain and offset drift. What components might be used and how would they work?

💡 Hint: Think about common electronic components that change with temperature.
