A device used to measure the inductance, capacitance, and resistance of a component, sensor, or other device whose operation depends upon capacitance, inductance, or resistance is known as an LCR metre (Inductance (l), Capacitance (C), and Resistance (R)).
Impedance is a physical property that is measured using LCR metres, which are measuring equipment.The inductance, capacitance, and resistance of an electronic component are measured using an LCR metre, a type of electronic test equipment.
The impedance was measured internally in earlier iterations of this instrument and converted to the relevant capacitance or inductance value for display.
Benchtop LCR metres are measuring devices that assess impedance, a measurable physical characteristic. The quantifier Z is used to express impedance, which is resistance to the passage of an AC current. It can be determined using the voltage V between the measurement target’s terminals and the current I flowing to it.
An LCR metre is a measuring device that measures the inductance, capacitance, and resistance (L, C, & R) of a sensor, component, or other device.
Additionally, the quality factor, dissipation factor, voltage, current, conductance, phase angle, and susceptance are all measured by this instrument.
Benchtop LCR metres typically come with more capabilities than handheld versions, including customizable frequencies, greater measurement accuracy down to 0.01%, computer control, and data collection for automated applications. Advanced features including sweep capability, DC bias voltage, and DC bias current are typical.
Global LCR meter market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Three brand-new tabletop LCR metres have been introduced by Hioki. The IM3523, IM3533, and IM3533-01 are made for usage in production-line settings as well as in research and development for the electronic component sector.

The new LCR metre line of high performance general purpose impedance testers from Rohde & Schwarz is offered for a variety of applications.
With a supported frequency range of 4 Hz to 10 MHz, the R&S LCX is suitable for a wide range of devices, from low frequency seismic sensors to high power communication circuits operating at several Megahertz.
It is also suitable for the vast majority of devices operating at conventional 50 or 60 Hz domestic power frequencies or 400 Hz for aircraft.
The R&S LCX models offer high precision impedance values with industry-leading accuracy to engineers for use in selecting suitable capacitors, inductances, resistors, and analogue filters to match the device application.
Higher speed measurements with production-use precision for quality control and monitoring are also supported.
There includes a full selection of test fixtures for handling components, as well as remote control, result logging, rack mounting for the instrument, and all the critical hardware and software needed for production environments.
The R&S LCX’s auto-balancing bridge technology measures the AC voltage and current for the device being tested, including the phase shift, and enables standard impedance measurements. The complex impedance at any operating point is then determined using this.
The R&S LCX is a general-purpose LCR metre that may be used for a variety of tasks, including measuring electrolytic capacitors’ equivalent series resistance (ESR) and equivalent series inductance (ESL), as well as DC-link capacitors’ ESR and ESL.
In addition to the entire spectrum, users can also test transformers and measure DC resistance.Option R&S LCX-K106 enables dynamic impedance measurements with the frequency, voltage, or current as the swept parameter, allowing you to examine components whose impedance values vary at various frequencies and levels.
The R&S LCX line is initially comprised of two models: the R&S LCX200 has a basic frequency range of 4 Hz to 500 kHz and the R&S LCX100 has a frequency range of 4 Hz to 300 kHz with the option to cover all frequencies up to 10 MHz.
The virtual keyboard and big capacitive touchscreen on both versions enable tap-and-test for all key measures. As an alternative, values for voltage, current, and frequency can be set via the rotary knob.
Menu controls are utilised for less often used features. On-screen output or output for automated post-processing are both options for displaying settings, results, and data.
The MFIA impedance analyzer from Zurich Instruments AG, a Rohde & Schwarz subsidiary, is the ideal complement for analysing impedance in a wider range of materials.
Researchers can use the MFIA to characterise semiconductors or conduct material research on a variety of materials, such as dielectrics, piezoelectrics, ceramics, and composites. They can also study cell growth, tissue impedance, wearable sensors, microfluidics, and food research.
The new LCR-8200A High-Frequency LCR Metre was launched by GW Instek. Similar to the LCR-8200 series, this extended series includes a 7-inch colour display with good measurement precision (0.08%).
Depending on the measurement method chosen, the measurement data can be provided in numerical or graphical form, giving users the best opportunity to assess the DUT’s properties.
At the same time, a wide variety of conventional interfaces, including GPIB, RS-232C, Handler, and USB devices, let users manage the instrument using their most comfortable interface without worrying about additional hardware investment expenses.
When running in graphics mode, the series also offers USB storage functionality. The DUT’s measured characteristic curves and values are preserved for later study.
Users may readily respond to the test needs of passive components in R&D, engineering, and manufacturing thanks to the LCR-8200 A’s extensive range of functions.
The highest frequency of each of the five models in the LCR-8200 is 1MHz, followed by 5MHz, 10MHz, 20MHz, and 30MHz; the highest frequencies of the five models in the LCR-8200A are 5MHz, 10MHz, 20MHz, 30MHz, and 50MHz.
The LCR-8200A offers seven different similar circuit models that utilise circuit components to create a particular circuit network, characterise the operational properties of the circuit or analyse its performance, and identify any potential for future change.
