The DT830B is a compact, light tool - a bargain if you need something cheap and reliable. The heart of the instrument is the IC coupled with a large 3 1/2 digit, 7 segment, 0.5" high LCD display with a maximum reading of 1999.
The DT-830B can measure DCV (0,1mV - 1000V), ACV (0,1V - 750V), DCA (0,1mA - 10A), Ohm (0,1Ω - 2MΩ) diode forward voltage drop and hFE for bipolar PNP and NPN transistors.
The 830 series pocket-size multi-meters come in many colors (black and yellow are the most common) and many variants: DT830B, M830B, DT830A (no transistor check, 50Hz signal generator), DT830C (temp. probe), DT830D (audible continuity), DT830B (backlight) etc
