The R&S®LCX200 offers an upper frequency limit of 500 kHz and can be extended to 1 MHz or 10 MHz using software options when needed. 

DC measurements are available on all instruments. Most applications can be covered with voltages as high as 10 V generated internally. It is also possible to apply bias voltages of up to 40 V externally. 

All measured values are recorded up to 10 times per second using the fast logging function.

The advanced analysis function allows you to perform dynamic impedance measurements. These sweep measurements determine the impedance values for a series of frequency values or other parameters. 

Digital I/O ports can be used to trigger and control measurements externally. Using the binning function, the measured components can be sorted by their values into eight categories. 

With the large capacitive touchscreen, you can operate the instruments in a modern and intuitive way and visualize the results of your measurements graphically. 

Remote controllability and rack installation make the R&S®LCX ideal for system applications.

A Kelvin connection is a means of making precision electrical potential contact with a current carrying component or reference point in such a way that eliminates, or greatly reduces, the effect of contact resistance. This is especially important when dealing with low millivolt reference voltages with relatively heavy loads where contact resistance can be significant and unknown variable.

A method of injecting a precise voltage across the reference which avoids errors caused by the wire resistance is called the Kelvin, or 4-wire method. Special connecting clips called Kelvin clips are made to enable this kind of connection across a subject resistance.

Whether the goal is product testing or scientific research, heat can be an important indicator of how a system is functioning. The FLIR ETS320 is a non-contact thermal measurement system that pairs a high-sensitivity infrared camera with an integrated stand, for hands-free measurement of printed circuit boards and other small electronics.

REDUCE TEST TIMES

The FLIR ETS320 takes the guesswork out of thermal testing for fast discovery of hot spots and potential points of failure. This sensitive camera detects minute temperature shifts (< 0.06°C) and quantifies heat generation up to 250°C.

IMPROVE PRODUCT DESIGN

The FLIR ETS320 offers 76,800 points of non-contact measurement, so researchers can locate hot spots without concerns about unseen heat sinks. Temperature measurement accuracy of ±3°C helps to ensure products attain quality assurance and factory acceptance.

DESIGNED FOR BENCHTOP WORK

The FLIR ETS320 is designed for hands-free use in a lab, with a microscope-style stand that’s quick to set up and simplified features that allow researchers to focus on their work instead of on camera controls.

• The Extech LCR200 measures inductance, capacitance, and resistance
• Tests secondary parameters of Q (Quality), D (Dissipation), R (Resistance), θ (Phase), and ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance)
• Higher accuracy than DMMs
• Built-in test fixture
• 5 preset test frequencies
• Dual display with bargraph

Key Functionality

With the Extech LCR200 you can see simultaneous 20,000/2,000 count displays of the primary parameter on the high contrast backlit display coupled with a segmented bargraph display. You can set Hi/Lo limits using absolute values or percentage limits and test with 5 preset frequencies. Open and Short Zero removes unwanted stray impedances from the measurement. Use the built-in test fixture or external test leads (included). You can expand the functionality of your LCR200 with several optional accessories (not included): SMD Component Tweezers (LCR203) and a plug-in SMD Chip Component Fixture (LCR205). A soft pouch storage case (CA900) is also available. The LCR200 has an Auto Power Off function that can also be disabled and a low battery indicator to alert you when to replace the batteries.

Open/Short Calibration

In order to improve the accuracy for high/low impedance measurements , it is recommended to do OPEN/SHORT calibration mode before the measurement. This removes stray impedances in test leads or fixtures.

1. Press the CAL button for greater than 2 seconds to start the open/short calibration procedure:
2. The “CAL” icon and “OPEN” appear in the display
3. With no component connected, press the CAL button. The display will count down from 30 and either “PASS” or “FAIL” will appear in the display.
4. Press the CAL button and “Srt” will appear.
5. Short the input and press the CAL button. The display will count down from 30 and either “PASS” or “FAIL” will appear in the display.
6. Press the CAL button to exit the cal mode.
7. If PASS appeared for both the OPEN and SHORT modes, the calibration data will be saved to external EEPROM.
8. If FAIL appeared for either calibration, the impedance was too large to zero out and the data is not stored.

Extech 380400 Resistance Decade Box offers 7 decades of resistance ranges from 1 to over 11MΩ (in 1Ω steps). Slide switches allow easy addition and subtraction of resistance values. Binding posts (3) offer simple and secure connections.

Testing This device can be used to verify the calibration integrity of MultiMeters, LCR meters, Calibrators, etc. Connect as described above in the Binding Post Connection section. Set the resistance switches to output the desired resistance. Ensure that the voltage supplied by the device under test does not overload the 0.3W internal resistor power rating. The device under test should read the value of resistance selected on the tester. If it does not, the device under test may need calibration, adjustment, or repair.

The 28 front panel switches are used to select the resistance that will be available on the RED and BLACK terminals. When a switch is set to the IN position, the value printed above the switch is added to the total resistance available at the posts. When the switch is set to OUT it is excluded from the total resistance. If all of the switches are set to OUT, the total output resistance is zero (+ 0.3Ω internal resistance – approx.). For example, if the desired output value is 10.5KΩ, set the following switches to the IN position: 10K, 400Ω, and 100Ω.

In heavy duty durable construction housing used for product design or calibration checks.
