Power Supply Design Notes: How to Measure Ripple

Select the “AC voltage” mode by turning the tester knob. The meter will only measure the AC component of the signal, the ripple voltage, if present. The display shows the measured value of the ripple voltage amplitude. If it shows the value 0.00 mV it means that, most likely, the ripple is absent.Oct 10, 2020
