Here's something that folks might find interesting.

If you deal with SMDs, the modded TL-21 with BNC connectors and a SMD fixture like shown works really well.

Best,

For old-fashioned A-B carbon composition resistors, the talc grains mixed with the carbon particles "short out" the carbon capacitively at high frequency, so that the equivalent parallel resistance is surprisingly low.

Good point. I should have specified the type of resistors. I tested my ET432 with a precision metal film resistor, which measures perfect on a DE-5000 at 100KHz, but is 1.8% low at 100KHz on the ET432.

"X" shows as about 450k - maybe you need to add the two together? - wild guess - I have no understanding

Parallel mode shows about 900k Ohms with 100kHz

100Hz gives probably correct value of 980k Ohms in any mode

Hantek 1833C

What type of resistor did you test? As others have said, a carbon resistor dropping is expected, but a metal film should not have an appreciable drop at 100KHz.

My ET432 has all sorts of problems in the MOhm range as well. I suspect this is because the highest range resistor internally is only 100K, whereas a meter like the DE-5000 includes a 1MOhm range resistor.

Cheap nasty 0.25 Watt 5% resistor from a bundle offer many years ago

I have no idea what the construction would be

I have no other high value resistors to try

I have low expectations of the Hantek LCR meter and the resistor. Both are good enough for hobby use  :)

So probably a carbon resistor. Ok. A dropoff in resistance is probably normal for that resistor then.

Thanks for testing though!!!
