LCR meter

Aplab offers the MT4080A/MT4080D models of LCR meters. These come with a wide range of test frequencies up to 10 MHz (MT4080D) or 100 kHz (MT4080A), and many measurement parameters including Z, L, C, DCR, ESR, D, and F as well. The MT4080A/MT4080D is designed for both component evaluations on the production line and fundamental impedance testing for bench-top applications. With a built-in direct test fixture one can test the lead components very easily. The 4-wire test clip can give a convenient connection to larger components and assemblies with the accuracy of 4-wire testing. The LCR meter offers fast, reliable and versatile testing at low cost. Furthermore, the optional RS232C interface (IRDA) is an attractive, cost-effective solution for quality assurance and incoming inspection operations, making the MT4080A/4080D the most advanced handheld LCR meter available on the market today. It is found very useful in quick checking of ESR (equivalent serial resistance) in a capacitor, the key element in determining efficiency and performance of the SMPS switched mode power supply design. With the optional TL08A SMD test probe, it tests SMD as well as conventional components if the wire leads are too short to insert in the test terminals. One can also measure DC-resistance of primary and secondary of the transformers with the standard DCR function. This handheld LCR meter weighs only 470 gm and has dimension of 174 (L) x 86 (W) x 48 (H) mm. It works on either 6 V power adapter or AA-size Ni-Mh rechargeable battery.
