where, VOLT[c][0] and CURR[c][0] are the data measured with a current output
level, and VOLT[c][1] and CURR[c][1] are the data measured with a different
current output level or zero output.
This function is effective for reducing measurement errors in low resistance
measurements.
VARALPHA
Calculates varistor alpha using the following formula.
VARALPHA = log(CURR[c][1] / CURR[c][0]) / log(VOLT[c][1] / VOLT[c][0])
where, CURR[c][0] and VOLT[c][0] are the measurement data at a point on a
varistor's non-linear I-V characteristics curve, and CURR[c][1] and VOLT[c][1] are
the data at the another point.
VOLTCOEF
Calculates voltage coefficient using the following formula.
VOLTCOEF = (RES[c][1]-RES[c][0]) / (RES[c][1] * (VOLT[c][1]-VOLT[c][0])) * 100 %
where, RES[c][0] and RES[c][1] are the resistance measurement data at the first
and second measurement points, respectively, and VOLT[c][0] and VOLT[c][1] are
the voltage measurement data at the first and second measurement points,
respectively.
The voltage coefficient is known as the ratio of the fractional change for a resistor
whose resistance varies with voltage.
