Accuracy of LCR meter?
<< < (3/6) > >>
abdulbadii:
How SMD C can be known onboard when there often possibility of lowering ohm parallels
need to separate a pin and  so ordinary probe should be used finely anyway

Indeed. To get an accurate impedance measurement of a part it needs to be in a fixture or you're getting an impedance measurement of the network. That might be good enough but it's not good enough for most diagnostics hence why I don't own SMD tweezers. Lifting a leg or the whole SMD part is advisable and you can usually make do without the tweezers then.

If you must have tweezers, Peak sell 'em: https://www.peakelec.co.uk/acatalog/smd03m-lcr-and-esr-test-tweezers.html

you may try a benchtop lcr meter, MATRIX LCR METER MCR-5200 looks nice, it has good accuracy and quality, they sell on amazon, here is the buying link:

Accuracy for LCR meters that use Cyrustek ES51919 and ES51920 based chip sets are pretty good. Example : DE-5000, MS-5308 or UNI-UT612 and etc.

For calibration there was an info shared by other fellow here in this forum ->

For DE-5000, adjust DC 500mV between TP1 and TP2.

For others, adjust DC 500mV between pin 26 and pin 28 on ES52920.

Using my cheapo MS-5308 compared with probably 5 digits priced  Wayne-Kerr 6440B LCR meter  :scared: ...

According to the sheet you´ve linked, there is no remark that the 2mH range got 2%.
It´s only stated, the BEST accuracy will be 2%, not on which range.

I... I realize that this is what a literal interpretation of the column title might imply, but surely this is wrong and the column is just poorly labelled. There's no way that ±(2%+8) figure applies to only one range; and that the manufacturer is making absolutely no claim whatsoever about the performance in the other ranges?
