Until May 31, 2022, receive a free Keysight U1733C handheld LCR meter with a qualifying purchase of a Keysight power supply.
A Companion Device for Troubleshooting
Powering an inductive or capacitive device can draw a large inrush current.
Having an LCR meter helps you measure the reactance of the load so you can select a power supply that protects your device against overcurrent. The following are key features you want from a power supply to protect a reactive load:
- delayed overcurrent protection
- variable slew rate
- current limit
U1733C Handheld LCR Meter Benefits
You can measure devices with frequencies up to 100 kHz, a capability that is typical in benchtop meters. Auto identification displays the component type and provides impedance measurements, equivalent series resistance, and
direct current resistance. A 16-hour battery offers a longer run time, so you can perform quick, inductive, capacitive, and resistance (LCR) measurements at your convenience.
