Test Frequency Functions

Test frequency can greatly affect the results of measurement readings, especially when measuring inductors and capacitors. This section provides some recommendations and suggestions to consider.

Capacitance

When measuring capacitance, selecting the right frequency is important in obtaining the most accurate results. Generally a 1kHz test frequency is used to measure capacitors that are 0.01μF or smaller. For capacitors that are 10μF or larger, a lower frequency of 120Hz is used. Following this trend, high-test frequencies are best for testing very low capacitance components.

For large capacitance components, low frequency would be optimal.

For example, if the capacitance of the component is in the mF range, then selecting 100Hz or 120Hz for the test frequency would give more accurate results. The results will also be obvious because if the same component was tested with 1kHz or 10kHz, the measured readings may look erroneous on the display. In all cases, it is best to check with the manufacturer's data sheet in order to determine the best test frequency to use for measurement.

Inductance

Typically a 1kHz or 10kHz test frequency is used to measure inductors that are used in audio and RF circuits because these components operate at higher frequencies. However, a 120Hz test signal is used to measure inductors that are used for applications such as filter chokes in power supplies, which are typically operated at 60Hz AC (in US) with 120Hz filter frequencies. In general, inductors below 2 mH should be measured at 1kHz frequency while inductors above 200H should be measured at

120Hz. In all cases, it is best to check with the manufacturer's data sheet in order to determine the best test frequency to use for measurement.

Selecting Test Frequency

The meter has five test frequencies: 100Hz/120Hz/1kHz/10kHz/100kHz. Press the FREQ button to scroll through the five frequencies sequentially.

Note: The test frequency can affect the accuracy of the results depending on what frequency is selected as well as what type and value of component is being measured or tested. continued...



Primary Impedance with Secondary Parameter Test

The default test mode for this meter is Auto-LCR Mode, which checks the type of impedance and automatically enters L/C/R Mode. The secondary parameter will follow the L/C/R measurement, meaning that (L+Q), (C+D) * ,

(R+ θ ) ** are combined in one group respectively.

1. Press the FUNC button to switch from Auto-LCR Mode to Auto-Lp

Mode, Auto-Cp Mode, Auto-Rp Mode, and DCR Mode.

Note: When Auto-Lp or Auto-Cp Mode is selected, the impedance measurement is auto ranging. The primary LCD display will show the inductance or capacitance of DUT (device under test); while the secondary

LCD display will show the quality or dissipation factor.

2. Press the button to display the D/Q/ θ /ESR value. When Auto-R

(ACR mode) or DCR mode is selected the secondary parameter is omitted.

Device Under Test Display

* When Auto-LCR mode is active, the secondary parameter will show the equivalent resistance in parallel mode (Rp) to replace the

D factor if the C measured value of the DUT is less than 5pF.

** Auto-LCR mode only. During

Auto-R Mode or DCR Mode, the secondary parameter is not available.

Series or Parallel Functions

Just as test frequency can greatly affect measurement results, selecting between series or parallel measurement mode can also affect the accuracy of the meter, especially for capacitive and inductive components. This section provides some recommendations and suggestions to consider.

continued...



Capacitance

Most capacitance measurements will obtain best results with parallel mode selected. The majority of capacitors have a very low dissipation factor

(high internal resistance) compared to the impedance of the capacitance. In these cases, the paralleled internal resistance has negligible impact on the measurement. There will be some cases where series mode would be used for a capacitance measurement, or the readings will appear inaccurate.

Series mode is useful when large capacitors have higher dissipation factor and lower internal resistance.

Inductance

Most inductance measurements will obtain best results with series mode selected. In series mode, accurate Q (quality factor) readings can be obtained from reading low Q inductors and ohmic losses are significant.

There will be some cases where parallel mode would be used for an inductance measurement, for example iron core inductors operating at higher frequencies where hysteresis and eddy currents become significant.

Series/Parallel Measurements

When any L/C/R function is selected, the default measurement will be automatically selected. If the impedance is greater than 10kΩ, parallel mode will be selected, and "Lp/Cp/Rp" will display on the LCD screen. If the impedance is less than 10kΩ, series mode will be selected, and

"Ls/Cs/Rs" will display on the LCD. When the Parallel/Series/Right Button is pressed, the impedance measurement will be set in series mode or in parallel mode sequentially.

Data Hold

1. While taking a measurement, press the HOLD button to freeze the current readings on the display.

2. While in this mode a "HOLD" symbol will appear.

3. Press the button again to resume normal operation.

Note: When the Data Hold feature is active all buttons except the power & backlight buttons are disabled.



Relative Mode

1. To reserve the current DUT readings (DCUR) on the primary display as a reference value (DREF), press the button.

2. The ∆ symbol will then appear on the LCD screen indicating this function is now active. The secondary display will show the percentage of the relative value (REL%).

3. Press the button again to show the reference value (DREF) on the primary display; the ∆ symbol will start to blink.

REL% = (DCUR – DREF) / DREF x 100%

Note: The percentage range is -99.9% to 99.9%. When the relative value is larger than double the reference value (DREF), the "OL%" symbol will appear on the secondary display.

4. Press and hold down the button for approximately 3 seconds to exit relative mode and resume normal operation.

Accuracy Discrepancies

In some special cases, inaccuracies may occur in the measurement of capacitive, inductive, and resistive components. This section provides some recommendations and suggestions to consider.

Capacitance

It is strongly recommended to have the dissipation factor low when measuring capacitors. Electrolytic capacitors inherently have a higher dissipation factor due to their normally high internal leakage characteristics. In some cases, if

D (dissipation factor) is excessive, measurement accuracy may degrade and even read out of specification.

Inductance

Some inductors are intended to operate at a certain DC bias to achieve a certain inductance value, however this meter cannot produce such a biasing scheme. External biasing should not be attempted because external power would be applied to the instrument and cause serious damage to the meter.

Therefore, in some cases, the inductance reading may not agree with manufacturer's specification. It is important to check if the specification pertains to DC biasing or not.

continued...



Resistance

When measuring resistance of devices, it is important to know that there are two types or ways of measurement. One type is DC resistance measurement.

Another type is AC resistance measurement. The LCR meter provides both types of measurement.

Before using the meter to measure resistance, please verify whether the DUT (device under test) requires DC or AC resistance measurement method. Depending on the method, results will vary greatly.

Guard Terminal

One of the input sockets and terminals is labeled as "GUARD". This terminal does not have to be used in all instances for the meter to provide measurements. But in some instances, it is very useful. Guard terminal generally serves two purposes.

If user is using test leads, the guard terminal can be used to connect to the shielding of the test leads. Doing so can be useful when making large resistive component measurements. For example, when measuring a 10

MΩ resistor with test leads, at the high range the reading may seem to be unstable as a few digits may continuously be changing. Having the shield of the test leads connected to the guard terminal will help stabilize the reading in some instances.

Guard terminal is also used to minimize noise and to help minimize parasitic effects coming from the component being measured, thus allowing high precision results.

Calibration Mode

It is recommended to regularly calibrate this meter to improve the accuracy of high/low impedance measurements.

Note: You will need a shorting bar or a short piece of conductive metal

(i.e. paper clip) to complete the calibration procedure.

1. Be sure nothing is connected to the meter, and turn it on.

2. Press and hold down the CAL button for 2 seconds to enter calibration mode.

3. The screen will display "OPEN", indicating the input terminals have nothing connected.
