Yeah but you need a precision voltmeter to verify voltage and to verify resistance tolerance. Voltage and resistance have to be almost absolute for the current measurement to be as good.
@@wlgrd7052 I guess I'm saying it's good to know the error tolerance of the voltage and resistance so that the error of the current measurement can be known.
It's a very popular product. You can see the availability for the Power Profiler Kit II on our website: www.nordicsemi.com/About-us/BuyOnline?search_token=nRF-PPK2
With PPK2, when using as an ammeter mode, am I correct to assume it would act as a multimeter/current meter? Where I could measure the inline current of a wire at any point of the circuit as long as the wires will be connected in series in Vin / Vout of the PPK2? I plan to measure and test a few signal currents coming in / out of an IC.
Thanks for such a great and informative video about our Power Profiler Kit II.
To check the accuracy, simply add a resistor between VOUT and GND. Apply for example 3V over a 10k resistor, and see what you get ;)

@@benargee define accurate. It's all depending on the applications requirements, and this is a 100usd kit ;)

@@benargee of course, if that is what you need.
I have mine ordered, but i'm waiting for it to be in stock, these things seem to be sold out in all eshops in my country.
They do! I just checked digikey and it is sold out.

@@NordicSemi Yes, and at this time it is sold out except for 3 in Australia.
Does the PPK2 need to be calibrated? If so, how?

I have the same question, did you find an answer?
