The DE-500 is a high-performance handheld LCR meter that is full-featured yet cost effective. It rivals the capabilities and options of many of its bench counterparts. It measures:
Ls/Lp -- Series and parallel inductance
Cs/Cp -- Series and parallel capacitance
Rs/Rp -- Series and parallel resistance (ac)
Rdc/Rp -- Series and parallel resistance (dc)
ESR/Rp -- Series and parallel equivalent resistance
D -- Dissipation factor
Q -- Quality factor
Θ -- Phase angle
This handheld LCR meter can transfer data to a PC via a standard, fully isolated, optical IR-USB interface. It also features a Sorting mode, allowing users to quickly sort components.
The DE-5000 handheld LCR Meter has automatic impedance selection. This allows the user to measure the L/C/R components in Auto LCR mode without having to select the type of measurement.
To accommodate various test requirements, the DE-5000 handheld LCR Meter offers selectable test frequencies: 100 Hz / 120 Hz / 1 kHz / 10 kHz / 100 kHz.
The LCR Meter is powered by a standard 9V battery. For additional convenience, it may also use an optional ac adapter (DE-5000-AC).
To transfer data to a PC, the LCR Meter comes with a built-in IR interface. IET offers an optional Data Transfer Kit (DE-5000-DTK). This kit includes: IR-USB interface adapter, a USB cable, and a CD with software for the PC.
