Analog Bar Graph Expanded Scale VoltmeterAnalog Bar Graph Expanded Scale VoltmeterThe circuit acts like a magnifying glass on part of the scale of an ordinary meter, namely the part of the scale we are interested in. For example, an ESV for testing a single NiCd cell would range from 1.17V at one end of the scale to 1.28V at the other end of the scale. With the full scale covering this narrow range, it’s easy to see voltage changes within the range.The circuit described here uses a bar graph display consisting of eight LEDs.
