Comparison of the output resolution (least-significant steps) for the DC205 Precision DC Voltage Source and the Yokogawa model 7651 Programmable DC Source. Both instruments are set to an output range of 10 V. Note the step-to-step variation in the Yokogawa output, as well as the 10-fold resolution advantage of the DC205. Least-significant output steps
