Patent ID: 8738313

Claim:
A measurement apparatus comprising: a plurality of channels for inputting signals; a multiplexer that sequentially switches between a first signal and a second signal of said signals; sequence-operation means for controlling said switching performed by said multiplexer; an AD converter that performs AD conversion of said first signal or second signal which is selected by said multiplexer; and a digital processor that performs measurement of at least one of the channels based on an output from said AD converter, wherein said first signal is a signal of an input channel for which a high-speed update is necessary, wherein said second signal is a signal of an input channel, for which a high-speed update is unnecessary, or an internal calibration signal which is at least one of a zero adjustment signal, a span adjustment signal, and an internal terminal temperature signal, and wherein said digital processor performs measurement of the channels for at least two pairs of said first and second signals, one pair including said first signal and said second signal that is the signal of the input channel for which the high-speed update is unnecessary and another pair including said first signal and said second signal that is the internal calibration signal.
