Keysight Technologies U1730C Series Handheld LCR Meters Take your expectations higher with the latest LCR meters Data Sheet Introduction The Keysight Technologies, Inc. U1730C Series handheld LCR meters allow you to measure at frequencies as high as 100 kHz--a capability typically found only in benchtop meters. Get measurements done faster using the one-touch automatic identification function button which displays component type and more detailed component analysis such as Z, ESR, and DCR. Ideal for testing on the go, these LCR meters operate on a battery that lasts up to 16 hours. With the U1730C Series that is built for your convenience, you can perform quick and basic LCR measurements at an affordable price. 03 | Keysight | U1730C Series Handheld LCR Meters - Data Sheet Features Key features Frequency up to 100 kHz Detailed component analysis - 20,000 counts resolution The test frequency now extends as high as 100 kHz, providing more flexibility to test a wider range of components. A higher test frequency, for example 100 kHz, is useful for applications such as testing aluminum electrolytic capacitors used in switching power supply circuits. The handheld LCR meters allows you to test various component types, including secondary components of Dissipation Factor (D), Quality Factor (Q), and Angle Indication of Impedance (). This new handheld series also includes other functions that result in a more detailed component analysis. For example, the built-in Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) function helps you better understand the inherent resistance behavior typically found in capacitors across selected frequencies. DCR is a built-in DC resistance measurement that eliminates the use of a separate digital multimeter (DMM) for component test. - 0.2% basic accuracy - W ide LCR ranges with three to five selectable test frequencies (up to 100 kHz for U1733C) - A uto identification (Ai) automatically determines and displays component type and measurements - D etailed component analysis with DCR, ESR, Z, D, Q, and functions - Battery life of 16 hours/AC-powered - IR-to-USB connectivity for data logging to PC Automated identification With Ai the testing and measuring experience is easy; eliminating unnecessary trial and error time--with just a single push of a button. This unique feature automatically specifies L, C, or R with parallel and series mode, without the need to manually change buttons. Figure 1.
