An old Electronics Designer’s Casebook described a circuit that provided capacitance measurements of 10 pF to 1 µF with 1% accuracy (Reference 1). A number of issues emerged with the circuit during ...

Single-phase motors, adjustable-speed drives (ASDs), and power factor (PF) correction applications often depend on capacitors to operate properly. This article explains how to test these critical ...

Keithley Instruments has announced a new CV (capacitance/voltage)-measurement-instrument module for its model 4200-SCS (semiconductor-characterization system). The ...

Megger’s new CDAX 605 test set measure capacitance and dissipation factor at high voltages. Faster and easier to use than self-balancing capacitance bridges, the CDAX 605 combines an exceptionally ...

BEAVERTON, OR. Tektronix Inc. has announced the availability of two new source-measure unit (SMU) modules for the Keithley 4200A-SCS parameter analyzer that can perform low-current measurements even ...

Have you ever found the need to measure the capacitance of a capacitor? No multimeter handy (for shame)? Well, as it turns out you can actually measure capacitance using your Arduino Uno, with no ...

Megger's CDAX605 is a capacitance and dissipation factor test set to be used with an external power source/generator. Dec. 4, 2012 Megger's CDAX605 is a capacitance and dissipation factor test set to ...
