M162 LCR meter is a great complimentary tool to most multi-meters. Regular multi-meters are good in many way. But they usually have rather limited or even no ability for capacitance, inductance, and sub-ohm resistance measurement. The addition of a M162 LCR meter will overcome this deficiency. The DIY kit version of M162 is very easy to build. No special calibration is required to achieve ~1% accuracy.
Highlights of M162 LCR Meter:
- Resistance range: 0.1ohm — 20M ohm
- Capacitance range: 1pF — 20mF
- Inductance range: 1uH — 20KH
- Fully automatic ranging
- Accuracy: about 1%
- Measurement frequency: 1KHz/100Hz selectable
- Measurement voltage: 0.5Vpp
- Built-in virtual USB comport for data output and firmware upgrade
- Serial data output via USB comport or direct LVTTL
- Display HOLD function
- USB/Battery powered
- Easy to build, easy to use
- Optional acrylic enclosure (sold separately)
- Accept customization for different measurement frequency (< 50KHz) and voltage (< 2Vpp)
