An LCR meter is a piece of electronic test equipment used to measure the inductance (L), capacitance (C), and resistance (R) of a component. In the simpler versions of this instrument the true values of these quantities are not measured; rather the impedance is measured internally and converted for display to the corresponding capacitance or inductance value. Readings will be reasonably accurate if the capacitor or inductor device under test does not have a significant resistive component of impedance. More advanced designs measure true inductance or capacitance, and also the equivalent series resistance of capacitors and the Q factor of inductive components.

B&K Precision


Component testers can measure values of capacitors, resistors, inductors, diodes or transistors. The measured values of these components can be used for component sorting or trouble shooting.
