Peak Atlas ESR70 kept giving high ESR reading

(1/1)

Hi,
My Peak Atlas ESR70 consistently kept giving high ESR reading.
I tried to compensate probes but it just ALWAYS fails.
Readings for 1 and 10 Ohm resistors are every time wrong.
Lately, ESR readings are all higher than 40 Ohm.
Did someone encounter this problem?

Kean:
Never seen this with mine.  I suspect damage due to measuring a charged capacitor above the threshold (it can do a controlled discharge within limits).

You might want to try contacting Jez from Peak.  He will know the device best, and he has a forum account here @PeakAtlas https://www.eevblog.com/forum/profile/?u=84715
Also on Twitter https://twitter.com/peakatlas/ and of course usual business contact details on their website

Thank you.
I will try to contact Jez from Peak.
