The model 880 40,000-count handheld LCR meters measures inductance, capacitance, and resistance quickly and precisely. Additionally, the 880 also measures impedance, Theta, and ESR, features typically only found in bench LCR meters. Additionally, the 880 offers capabilities typically only found in bench LCR meters such as a 4-terminal configuration, basic measurement accuracy up to 0.1%, test frequencies up to 100 kHz, and selectable test signal levels.

Fast auto ranging and quick measurement configuration such as measurement parameter and test frequency selection make the 880 very simple to operate. The meter also includes handy functions such as data hold, Min/Max/Average recording, tolerance sorting, and relative mode.

Measurement data can continuously transfer to a PC via the meter's mini USB interface, using either the provided data logging software or SCPI commands sent from a custom program.

ESR Measurements

Models 879B and 880 have the ability to measure the ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) of capacitors. ESR is the sum of in-phase AC resistance of a capacitor and used to rate a capacitor’s quality. An ideal capacitor would be lossless and have an ESR of zero. A capacitor could measure the correct capacitance value, yet still be defective, due to the component’s excessive in-phase AC resistance. The 879B and 880 would be able to detect this faulty component.
