The NJU9214 is a 4•3/4 digits single chip digital multimeter LSI with
42 segments bargraph display .
The NJU9214 realizes high precision of ±40,000 counts measurement by the NJRC original dual-slope A to D converter and realizes
also quick response bargragh display and auto-ranging by another high
speed dual-slope A to D converter.
The input attenuator part is simplified because the resistor for resistance measurement is applied for voltage bleeder resistor.
Furthermore, the NJU9214 realizes root-mean-square measurement
for AC voltage and current by connecting a External RMS-DC Converter, and Data output by the on chip RS-232C interface circuit.
The NJU9214 is suitable for high precision and high performance
multimeter.

( 1 - 1 ) Voltage (DCV, ACV) measurements
The divided voltages which are output from each resistance R1 to R5 shown in following table are supplied to A/
D converter.
In the AC measurement, after the dividing voltage, these output voltages are converted to DC Voltages with the
external RMS/DC converter. This DC voltage is supplied into A/D converter.
10MΩ resistor for input terminal may be easy to be affected by noises.
Therefore 10MΩ and peripheral circuits require some protection like shields and so on for stable display .
The resistors for attenuating should be selected with a flat temperature characteristic. Especially , the resistors
(10MΩ, 10kΩ, 1kΩ) for 400V , 4000V ranges should be selected carefully. For example, when 4,000V is input,
0.4mA (4,000V÷10MΩ) flow through 10MΩ, and the resistor consumes power of 1.6W (4,000V×0.4mA) and the
temperature of the reference resistor.
After measuring at 400V, 4,000V ranges, sometimes the uncorrect value is shown on the display at 4V , 40V
ranges because the value of resister as the attenuator is changed by the temperature.

( 1 - 2 ) Resistance measurement(Ω)
As shown below, six type resistors ( 10MΩ,1MΩ,100kΩ,10kΩ,1kΩ,100Ω ) connecting VR2 to VR7 are used for
reference resistors of each range.
The output voltage on the measurement terminal is almost same as the voltage inputted Vref3.
As shown in Application circuits (1) to (3), an input protective diode must be connected with the OVH terminal.
In resistance measurement, continuity test, diode check and capacitance mode, if the NJU9214 is supplied high
voltage on the OVH terminal from the external, the NJU9214 may be broken completely .
In the R1 (400Ω) range, sometimes the resistor value shows wrong display because of the influence by test
leads and wiring resistances of a circuit board. In this case, it needs to adjust on the relative function using the 0
Ω resistance.
In the R6 (40MΩ) range, it may take a time to get the correct measurement value by the influence of parasitic
capacitance and may not show the stable value by the noise effects.

( 1 - 3 ) Continuity test( )
The input attenuator is fixed to 400Ω range of the resistance measurement mode. When the value is less than
40Ω, the buzzer sounds. The output voltage on the measurement terminal is about 0.4V .
If the display doesn't show 0Ω by resistances of lead wire when the terminals are shorted,
this case requires adjustment at 0Ω using the relative function.
( 1 - 4 ) Diode check( )
The input attenuator is fixed to DC4V range. The output voltage on the OVH terminal is about 5V (VDDA), and it
is supplied to the measurement terminal through the SW1 (external switch or relay).
( 1 - 5 ) Current ( DCmA, ACmA ) measurement
Current measurement provides the Auto-Manual 2-range mode(RMS=H) and the Manual 4-range mode (RMS=L).
These are changed by status of the RMS terminal. Each mode needs its own application circuit.
In the Auto-manual 2-range mode, the sense terminal is IVSL terminal at the 40mA range and IVSH terminal at
the 400mA range.
In the Manual 4-range mode, the sense terminal is IVSL. In this mode, switching range is performed by changing
the reference resistors. The SW for the reference resistor change must be operated together with the SWs
connecting to ' RC1 to RC3 '. ( Refer to ( 2 - 1 - 3 ) )
( 1 - 6 ) Current ( DCA, ACA ) measurement
It is fixed to the 40A range. The sense terminal is the IVSH terminal.
NJU9214
( 1 - 7 ) Frequency ( f ) measurement
The input voltage is divided by the attenuator, and then the attenuator output is supplied to counter through the
buffer .
The divided voltage is converted to DC voltage by the external RMS/DC converter, and the dividing voltage ratio of
the input attenuator is changed by this DC voltage, Noises or distorted waveforms sometimes show different
display against actual frequency .
The frequency range is always fixed to the Auto-range mode. It is able to switch from 100Hz to 1,000kHz and
the measurement cycle is 1 time a second.
( 1 - 8 ) RPM measurement
It is possible to measure numbers of revolution like as the revolutions of engine. The measurement is same way
as the frequency measurement. The revolutions are calculated by the value of 60 times the frequency .
The revolution range is always selected one of 6,000 to 600krpm automatically .
The minimum input voltage ( wave amplitude ) is about 300mV and the measurement cycle is 1 time a second.
( 1 - 9 ) Capacitance ( C ) measurement
The constant-current charges the measured capacitor, and the charging time, while the voltage of capacitance
reaches to the reference voltage, is measured and converted to the capacitance value.
If the measured capacitor has any electric charges, accurate measurement is not available. Therefore the
measured capacitor must be discharged before measurement.
The sense terminal is the OVX terminal.
( 1 - 10 ) Adapter ( ADP ) measurement
The voltage between the ADP terminal and the SGND is supplied to the A/D converter directly . Both of ADP
terminal ( + ) and SGND terminal ( - ) are High-impedance in DC400mV range.
Therefore, it is also used as differential input.
( 2 ) Switch input Mode
The lock or push type input switch is applied for function selection. The switch type is selected in both of auto
and manual ranges by the RMS terminal setting.
When the push type switch is selected, auto ranging is always selected.
When the lock type switch is selected and the RMS terminal is GND ( L ) level, all ranges are selected by
switches. But if the RMS terminal is VDD level ( H ), auto range, manual range selection and the range set are
performed by a push type switch.
Both of lock and push type application have the chattering protective function which reject the chattering less
than 20ms.

( 2 - 1 - 2 ) Range setting ( Lock type & Auto-Ranging : KMS = RMS = " H " )
The range shown in below table is controlled by a switch of the RC0 terminal which must go to "L" level ( GND )
when it is pressed. When the switch is pressed once, the range is changed from Auto-range to manual-range,
and its range is held. Then, the range is changed in every time by the switch operation. The range always returns
to Auto-range from any kinds of range when the switch is pressed over than 1 second.
