MEASURING INSTRUMENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS:
1. LOGIC PROBE - is a very simple circuit that is designed to measure digital systems and it
is also used for analyzing and troubleshooting the logical states (Boolean 0 or 1) of a digital
circuit. Logic probes are often only equipped with three output LEDs that indicate the following
states:
1 – (Digital High)
0 – (Digital Low)
Z – (High impedance)
P – (Signal is pulsing / switching)

4. Multimeter (VOM) - A multimeter or a multitester, also known as a VOM, is an electronic
measuring instrument that combines several measurement functions in one unit. A typical
multimeter can measure voltage (Volt), current (Ampere), and resistance (Ohm). Analog
multimeter uses a micro ammeter with a moving pointer to display readings.
Voltmeter - an instrument for measuring electric potential in volts.
Ex. 220 volts
Ohmmeter - an instrument for measuring electrical resistance.
Ex.20 Ohms
Ammeter - an instrument for measuring electric current in amperes.
Ex. 15 amperes

What is It
Definition of Terms
Mensuration – the act of measuring something ( Merriam- Webster Dictionary)
Measurement – the process of associating numbers with physical quantities and
phenomena. (https://www.britannica.com/technology/measurement)
Calculation – the process of using information you already have and adding, taking away,
multiplying , or dividing numbers to judge the number or amount of something.
(https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/calculation)
Bit (b) – short for binary digit (Computer Hope, 2020), either 0 or 1.
Byte (B) – a unit of computer information consisting of eight (8) bits (Merriam-Webster, n.d.)
Binary – the primary language for computers that is made up of only two numbers: 0 and 1
(Computer Hope, 2019).
Binary Prefix – used to represent the quantity in terms of byte or bit in computing
(SearchStorage, n.d.)
Decimal – a base 10 number system (Yadav, 2018)
Giga Hertz (GHz) – also known as clock rate or clock speed of the processor (Computer
Hope, 2018).
What Is Binary and How Does It Work?
Binary is a system of representing numbers using a pattern of ones and zeroes. First invented
by Gottfried Leibniz in the 17th century, the binary number system became widely used once
computers required a way to represent numbers using mechanical switches. It is a base-2
number system, where the number two (2) is raised by an exponent (n-1). The exponent is
denoted by the digits’ place (n) and subtracted by 1, wherein it increases as you move through
each position starting from the right going to the left.
LESSON

CARRY OUT MEASUREMENTS
AND CALCULATIONS
14. 8
For example, number 2 on the first position, so that is 2 raised by n-1, wherein n=1.
2(n-1) = 2(1-1) = 20
What Is Binary Code?
Early computer systems had mechanical switches that turned on to represent 1, and turned
off to represent 0. By using switches in series, computers could represent numbers using
binary code. Modern computers still use binary code in the form of digital ones and zeroes
inside the CPU and RAM.
Considering the given table below, the first position is the rightmost cell and the leftmost
position is the last cell.
Position

25
24
23
22
21
20
Value 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
Note: The first place should be 1 but since it is (n-1) subtracted by 1, it becomes 0.
The first value is equivalent to 1 because 20
is equal to 1.
Note: Any value with an exponent of 0 is always equal to 1.
The second value is 21
is 2 because it is just 2 itself multiplied by 1.
The third value is 4 because 22
= 2 x 2 = 4, 23
= 8 because 23
= 2 x 2 x 2 = 8, and so on and
so forth.
In binary system, 1 is equal to ON/TRUE and 0 is OFF/FALSE.
To read a binary number, get the turn - ON value/s only and sum it up, no need to include the
turned-OFF value/s. For example:
Value 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
ON/OFF 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1
0000 0001 = 1
Get the sum: 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 1 = 1
15. 9
Or simply get the turn - ON value which is 1.
Multiple values example:
Value 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
ON/OFF 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1
0000 0101 = 5
The binary number 0000 0101 is equivalent to 5 because the turned-on values are: (ALWAYS
START FROM THE RIGHT)
1 and 4
Then get the sum: 1 + 4 = 5
Number 5 and the “Value” in the tables are examples of decimal numbers, the number system
that we have known since we learned how to count numbers.
For us humans,

+ 2
----------------------------

but for computers,
0000 0001
+ 0000 0010
------------------------------------------------
0000 0011
Note: Each group of eight bits is known as a byte.
8 bits = 1 byte
That is how the computer represented the letters and numbers, and all the data that
you can see in the computer like images and videos.
Decimal to Binary Conversion
Rule: If the fraction is = ½ or .5, it is equivalent to 1.
In converting a decimal number to binary, all you have to do is:
1. Divide the number by 2.
2. Write the quotient and multiply the remainder by 2.
16. 10
3. Divide the remainder by 2.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you get a quotient of 0.
5. Read the values of the remainder from the bottom to top. Write the values to get the
binary value of the decimal number.
Example:
Convert 19 to binary
Decimal number / 2 Quotient Remainder
19 / 2 9 1
9 / 2 4 1
4 / 2 2 0
2 / 2 1 0
1 / 2 0 1
19 = 10011
Note: A byte has 8 binary digits. Add 0s from the left to complete the 8 digits. The final
answer is 19 = 00010011.
For a more detailed discussion, watch this video through this link: ________
Checking:
There are two ways to check if the conversion is accurate.
Method 1: Binary Table
1. Create a binary table.
2. Input the binary value into the table properly. Each digit should be entered on the
correct column starting from right to the left.
Decimal 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
Binary
State
0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1
3. Then add the decimal values with 1.
16 + 2 + 1 = 19
17. 11
Method 2: Binary to Decimal Conversion
1. Multiply the bits with its corresponding value.
Note: Always start from the right.
2. Get the sum.
(1 x 1) + (1 x 2) + (0 x 4) + (0 x 8) + (1 x 16) + (0 x 32) + (0 x 64) + (0 x 128)
1 + 2 + 0 + 0 + 16 + 0 + 0 + 0
= 19
Therefore: 19 = 0001 0011
Binary Prefixes
Also called as prefix multipliers consisting of a one-letter abbreviation and the prefix it stands
for.
Unit Symbol Power of 2 (bytes) VALUE in Bytes
Kilobyte KB 210
1,204
Megabyte MB 220
1,048,576
Gigabyte GB 230
1,073,741,824
Terabyte TB 240
1,009,511,627,776
For example:
1 kilobyte = 210
bytes
210
bytes = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 bytes
210
bytes = 1,024 bytes
Therefore: 1 KB = 1,024 bytes
If you have noticed, a 1 KB is not an exact 1,000 bytes but actually its 1,024 bytes because
the computer uses binary code in translating capacity and speed. So, if you have a hard disk
18. 12
with a capacity of 500 GB, its actual size is 536,870,912,000 bytes, and not 500,000,000,000
bytes.
On the contrary, you cannot view a 1 KB file as an actual 1,024 bytes in your computer
because it’s just how Windows represented it. There are a lot of factors involved in it and it will
not be tackled in this lesson.
The presented capacity of a file or component when viewing in your computer is dependent
on the OS and the manufacturer. What you have learned here is the actual values in computing
and is how computers are being engineered in terms of capacity and speed.
Data Storage Capacity Calculation
In a storage device, you need to know its capacity as well as how much space is used and
free.
For example, you have an 8 GB flash drive. You want to copy a file with a size of 1 GB and
your flash drive’s free space is 2 GB. How much free space will be left after you copied that
file to your flash drive?
Computation:
Let FSAC = free space of flash drive after copying
FS = 1 GB (size of the file you want to copy)
FSBC = 2 GB (free space of flash drive before copying)
FSAC = FS – FSBC
FSAC = 2 GB – 1 GB
FSAC = 1 GB
Therefore, there will be only 1 GB of free space in your flash drive after copying the file.
Checking:
Use the equation FSAC = FS – FSBC:
FSAC = FS – FSBC
1 GB = 2 GB – 1 GB
19. 13
1 GB = 1 GB
Therefore, your computation is correct!
CALCULATING BINARY USING THE FOUR FUNDAMENTAL OPERATIONS
Binary Addition
Binary addition follows the same rules as addition in the decimal system except that
rather than carrying a 1 over when the values added equal 10, carry over occurs when
the result of addition equals 2. Refer to the example below for clarification.
Note that in the binary system:
0 + 0 = 0
0 + 1 = 1
1 + 0 = 1
1 + 1 = 0, carry over the 1, i.e. 10
EX:
1
0 1
1 1
1 1
0 1
+ 1 0 1 1 1
= 1 0 0 1 0 0
The only real difference between binary and decimal addition is that the value 2 in the binary
system is the equivalent of 10 in the decimal system. Note that the superscripted 1's represent
digits that are carried over. A common mistake to watch out for when conducting binary
addition is in the case where 1 + 1 = 0 also has a 1 carried over from the previous column to
its right. The value at the bottom should then be 1 from the carried over 1 rather than 0. This
can be observed in the third column from the right in the above example.
Binary Subtraction
Similarly, to binary addition, there is little difference between binary and decimal subtraction
except those that arise from using only the digits 0 and 1. Borrowing occurs in any instance
where the number that is subtracted is larger than the number it is being subtracted from. In
binary subtraction, the only case where borrowing is necessary is when 1 is subtracted from
0. When this occurs, the 0 in the borrowing column essentially becomes "2" (changing
the 0-1 into 2-1 = 1) while reducing the 1 in the column being borrowed from by 1. If the
following column is also 0, borrowing will have to occur from each subsequent column until a
column with a value of 1 can be reduced to 0. Refer to the example below for clarification.
Note that in the binary system:
0 - 0 = 0
0 - 1 = 1, borrow 1, resulting in -1 carried over
1 - 0 = 1
1 - 1 = 0
20. 14
EX1:
-1
1 2
0 1 1 1
– 0 1 1 0 1
= 0 1 0 1 0
EX2:
-1
1 2-1
0 0
– 0 1 1
= 0 0 1
Note that the superscripts displayed are the changes that occur to each bit when borrowing.
The borrowing column essentially obtains 2 from borrowing, and the column that is borrowed
from is reduced by 1.
Binary Multiplication
Binary multiplication is arguably simpler than its decimal counterpart. Since the only values
used are 0 and 1, the results that must be added are either the same as the first term, or 0.
Note that in each subsequent row, placeholder 0's need to be added, and the value shifted to
the left, just like in decimal multiplication. The complexity in binary multiplication arises from
tedious binary addition dependent on how many bits are in each term. Refer to the example
below for clarification.
Note that in the binary system:
0 × 0 = 0
0 × 1 = 0
1 × 0 = 0
1 × 1 = 1
EX:
1 0 1 1 1
× 1 1
1 0 1 1 1
+ 1 0 1 1 1 0
= 1 0 0 0 1 0 1
As can be seen in the example above, the process of binary multiplication is the same as it is
in decimal multiplication. Note that the 0 placeholder is written in the second line. Typically,
the 0 placeholder is not visually present in decimal multiplication. While the same can be done
in this example (with the 0 placeholder being assumed rather than explicit), it is included in
this example because the 0 is relevant for any binary addition / subtraction calculator, like the
one provided on this page. Without the 0 being shown, it would be possible to make the
mistake of excluding the 0 when adding the binary values displayed above. Note again that in
the binary system, any 0 to the right of a 1 is relevant, while any 0 to the left of the last 1 in the
value is not.
21. 15
EX:
1 0 1 0 1 1 0 0
= 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 0
≠ 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0
Binary Division
The process of binary division is similar to long division in the decimal system. The dividend
is still divided by the divisor in the same manner, with the only significant difference being the
use of binary rather than decimal subtraction. Note that a good understanding of binary
subtraction is important for conducting binary division. Refer to the example below, as well as
to the binary subtraction section for clarification.

HOW TO PROPERLY CARE FOR AND HANDLE PRECISION MEASURING
INSTRUMENTS
1. Store Instruments in an Appropriate Environment
Whenever you place an instrument in its storage location, be sure the location is well-protected
from destructive elements. Do not store precision instruments where they can jostle against
one another in a drawer; instead, separate instruments from one another using dividers or
place them in padded cases. Avoid stacking instruments on top of each other, unless they are
well-protected in cases.
2. Know How to Properly Handle Instruments During Use
Once you have a precise measuring instrument in your hand, it becomes that much more
important to protect that tool from harm or providing false readings. There are a few things you
should do that will help prevent damage or miscalibration during use, including avoiding
sudden shocks or rough treatment. Do not drop, throw, or bang measuring instruments against
hard surfaces. Regularly check parts and batteries.
3. Always keep your tools used for measuring at or around room temperature
Never lay them on a heat source or in direct sunlight as doing so could really mess them up
so that their accuracy is affected.
