As an example, if you are measuring the current through a circuit that you suspect draws 50mA from a 3.3V source, you can guesstimate its load resistance to be 66Ω (as per V=IR). 10% of this is 6.6Ω. To drop 50mV, youll need to use at least a 1Ω resistor. So the reference resistor youll need for this circuit should be in the range of 1Ω-6.6Ω Ohms. A 2.8Ω or 3.3Ω resistor will be ideal in this case.
### To measure resistance/capacitance:
Connect your load between Oscilloscope CH1 DC (Duplicate) and Oscilloscope CH2 DC (Duplicate). Connect Oscilloscope CH2 DC to Signal Gen CH2. Connect your reference resistor between Oscilloscope CH1 DC and GND.

For resistance, youll want to aim for a reference resistor as close to the load resistance as possible. To be more accurate, you may want to take multiple measurements.
