impedance impossible

Post by John » Tue Oct 30, 2012 4:31 pm

Hi I need to read the voltage from a power supply, the datasheet for the power supply states that any digital measuring device needs an input impedance of at least 10M, unfortunately the Digital measuring device I have states that the maximum input impedance is 1M Ohm. What options do I have? Is there a circuit that can increase the input impedance of my measuring device?

Regards

John

Hi John,
What are you measuring? Can you add a link to the datasheet? I am very surprised that the input of your measuring device is only 1Mohm. What is ist you are measuring with?
