content: What kind of question did you have that made you want to learn more? Is there something specific that came into your mind? I am wondering if it is more about multimeters specifically, or more about measurements in general, or electronics in general, or... something else?

content: Knowledge about this differs between user and designer.If you want to know HOW a multimeter works, I could recommend early Fluke (and HP) service manuals, like from the 8020A or 8060A. In those the manufacturers describe in quite a detailed way how their multimeters work internally and you also get the schematics of them.

content: Thanks brother. Your information will be so helpful. My interest is on Design section not user. I'm a user and know well how to use multimeter, now I want to know how it designed.

content: Quote from: sanour_islam on February 26, 2023, 04:57:50 amDownload this manual for the Fluke 8842A, one of the all-time classics. Many of the answers you are looking for are in the theory section, Chapter 5. It gives understandable descriptions of each section along with simplified circuits that demonstrate what it is doing. This is a very straightforward and fully documented design with very few mysterious tricks or undocumented hybrid ICs (although there are a few pretty clever design features) to make it work. Every design is a bit different, of course, so the next model you look at may not work exactly the same way. The ADC design, for example, is unique to Fluke and not used any more.https://xdevs.com/doc/Fluke/8842A/FLUKE_8842A_Instruction.pdf
