LCRZ Meters, Chart ?
Randy222:
Is there on EEVb a chart that lists out the relatively good LCR meters using community feedback, in a chart or the like?
I just trying to get a sense of what meters are better than others, and for what reasons, like "best value", "most accurate", "better precision", "better resolution", etc.
KungFuJosh:
I haven't seen one.
The short list is:
DE-5000 - accurate / best value / handheld meter
TH2830 or 2832 / ST2830 or 2832 - Best lowish cost lab grade bench meters (Tonghui TH is terrible support, SourceTronic ST has excellent support).
Hioki IM3536 - excellent lab grade bench meter.
Instek LCR-8200 series - very expensive lab grade / high frequency meters.
There's also some less reliable, but usable bench meters from East Tester.

the DE-5000 is built around 2 ic's, Mastech lcr as them, Uni-t old series, and other clones
now maybe in the middle range
Many of the ET-430 and up models, new Uni-T
Hantek 1832 1833
100khz is a basic requirement nowadays
and i hope you discern precision vs resolution ...

100%. I am well versed with accuracy vs precision vs resolution. They are 3 terms often not understood.
Now I go lool at the various listed models.
coromonadalix:
really depend of your need
serial parallel ecr dcr etc .... resolution 20000 40000 counts
interfacing
lots of portables one if not all, dont do supplemental DC biais voltages, just the bench ones
or need special cases like sencore lc102 lc103 who will really do 1kv tests ??? they are the only ones at an astonishing price
even thoses little component tester can do wonders ... 20$ is not excessive, Fw Hw support
and only some of the high ends will discharge the caps before measurements, all the portables low medium costs will bust, even some middle high end ones etc ...
