Heathkit IM-2262 Digital Multimeter (DMM): History, Restoration, Demonstration, Theory

Описание: In this video documentary, I cover the Heathkit IM-2262 digital multimeter (DMM), a piece of vintage electronic test equipment. This is a companion piece to my similar documentaries on the IM-2260 and IM-2264, and is part of my overall series covering ALL of Heathkit's DMM's.

I talk about the history of this model in the context of Heathkit's other related offerings, I give an overview of the meter's features and operation, I talk briefly about my restoration of the metered pictured in the video, I go through the Heathkit manual, I demonstrate the meter in operation, and finally I give a detailed exploration of the schematic circuit diagram and talk about the theory of operation as I have learned through my reverse engineering process.
