As electrolytic capacitors age, their internal resistance, also known as “equivalent series resistance” (ESR), gradually increases. This can eventually lead to equipment failure. Using this design, ...
Longtime contributor Bob Meister from Hamden, Conn., writes in response to Tom Osenkowsky’s recent contribution with respect to equivalent series resistance (ESR) and the Sencore LC-75 Z-Meter being ...
Optimized for high-speed testing and low ESR measurements on tantalum and other types of capacitors, the 1930 capacitance meter features a fast settle time and quick recovery from open or shorted ...
