Preliminary specification for the open DC multimeter

I think to make 2 version of the open DC multi-meter :
- first one (LA stands for low accuracy) with a basic DC accuracy ~ 100 ppm which will be the test bench for the project
- second one (HA stands for high accuracy) with a basic DC accuracy ~ 20 ppm
