Impedance: L, C, R, |Z| and phase angle

LCR Meters, Impedance Analyzers, Capacitance Meters

Impedance measured at the frequency and signal level the component will actually see in the product, not at a convenient default.

What this group is for

Written as engineering fact. Nothing on this page states a specification the manufacturer has not supplied.

  • Test frequency and test signal level are set to the operating condition, because a component in tolerance at 1 kHz can be out of it where it will be used.

  • Four-terminal pair connection removes lead and contact impedance from the reading instead of averaging it in.

  • Measurement speed fast enough to sit in a production line at takt rather than beside it.

  • Sweeps that show the whole impedance curve, which is how a material or an electrode is characterized.

Highlighted models

Model data to be supplied

Specific LCR Meters, Impedance Analyzers, Capacitance Meters models are quoted against the application, because the right one depends on the range you need to resolve and the conditions on site.

Tell us what you are measuring and we will name the models that cover it, with the ranges and accuracy classes written out in full.

Where it is used

Four situations this group is bought for, and the points on a real installation where it is connected.

  • Incoming and outgoing inspection of capacitors, inductors and resistors.
  • In-line component sorting and binning.
  • Battery material and electrode characterization by impedance spectroscopy.
  • R&D on magnetic components and dielectrics.

Typical measurement locations

Component impedance at the working frequency

Production line

A part in tolerance at 1 kHz can be out of tolerance where it will actually be used.

What has to be true inside the company

Four criteria of innovation, and the reason a measurement can be trusted outside it.

Increasing customer value

Production system

A production system built so that a measurement need turns into a delivered, calibrated instrument without the customer absorbing the delay.

Delivering peace of mind to customers

After-sales service

An instrument is only as good as the number it still reports in year five. After-sales service exists to keep that number trustworthy.

Pursuing productivity and precision

Manufacturing capabilities

Precision is a manufacturing capability before it is a specification. It is held in the process, not promised in the catalog.

Creating new customer value

Collaborative development of new products

When a field has no instrument for the quantity it needs to see, the instrument gets developed with the customer who needs it.
