Buy or make a cheap Chinese AVR tester if you need something to get you by. Then later a Bob Parker designed ESR meter with input protection mod for frequent in circuit testing. Then a DER EE DE5000 LCR meter for out of circuit testing at different frequencies. |

FWIW the link @bitseeker posted was what led me to order one. After a $20 DMM, I think it's the best investment you can make. |

And not to be forgotten, if you have an analog panel meter lying around, build the 5-transistor ESR meter: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/projects/5-transistor-esr-meter-design/ |

If you want to use a multimeter as the display use Jay_Diddy_Bs other design. https://www.eevblog.com/forum/projects/esr-meter-adapter-design-and-construction/ |
