Question 3 (1 mark)
Determine the resistance RA in the circuit below to linearize the relation between the output voltage VOUT
and the temperature T in the range of -25°C ~ 65°C. The data of RT 102AT is shown in the below table.
Question 4 (2 marks)
Determine the necessary multiplier/shunt resistance values to make a 1.5mA (full scale) and 400Ω meter
become a Multimeter (VOM) to read exactly full-scale at an applied voltage of 500 volts, 50 volts, and
full-scale at an applied current of 50A, 10A.
This Multimeter also has an Ohmmeter function, and this Ohmmeter represents 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 of the full-
scale range value. Draw these 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 indication values of this Ohm measurement range.
