Difference between Least count and Micrometer

Least count vs. Micrometer

In metrology, the least count of a measuring instrument is the smallest change in the measured quantity that can be resolved on the instrument's scale. A micrometer, sometimes known as a micrometer screw gauge, is a device incorporating a calibrated screw widely used for precise measurement of components in mechanical engineering and machining as well as most mechanical trades, along with other metrological instruments such as dial, vernier, and digital calipers.
