After owning an Atlas ESR70 for just under a week now, i'm very impressed at it's capability to measure both esr and capacitance out of circuit (although it wont measure caps in the pf range, still have to use my DMM for that)
Before I bought the ESR70 I read somewhere that in most cases it was usually possible to measure ESR in circuit without removing the capacitor.
I have tried on several boards to get a reading, and have not been successful in obtaining a reliable one.
Perhaps I misunderstood the document or thread, I cant remember where i read it now.
Cheers for now
Jim
