Product Description

The 879B 40,000-count handheld LCR meter measures inductance, capacitance, resistance, impedance, Theta, DCR, and ESR quickly and precisely. Fast auto ranging and quick measurement configuration such as measurement parameter and test frequency selection make these meters 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.
