    Just got an Atlas Peak 70 and i have a few ??

    I just want to make sure i'm reading the meter correctly. Most of the caps that have in my box of used caps have an esr reading under 1 omh. But a few of the smaller ones (less than 100uf) have reading in the 2-3 range.

    Whats the "rule of thumb" for a low esr cap to be bad? The manual that comes with the meter has a "rough" chart but these readings seem WAY up there.

    Thanks

    ESR is often listed in datasheets. Low ESR caps should be lower than the chart. GP caps should be above it.
    sig files are for morons

      PS5 HDMI port diode reading?
      by SuperAman
      I did an hdmi port repair for a PS5 and I lost the small diode z71 SOD923 on the back of the port. I did a trace repair for pin 19 of the port as well. Without the diode I get no display at all. I tried replacing the diode twice but after I get flux on it the marking comes off so I can't tell if I have it on the right orientation. When I measure I get a reading of 1(open) and 923 in diode mode. Is 923 a normal reading for these and also which side should the reading be with regards to the arrow on the board?...

      0.00 ESR reading on a capacitor
      by Fuzzy Fix
      Howdy all I have a 90uF Capacitor 200/275 VRMS and measured the ESR . Reading says 00.3 Ohms and about 1/2 a second later 00,0 and says low ESR (Really No Kidding).
      I have checked it on the multimeter and reading is 94.7uF well within soec as ir has a 25% tolerance on it.
      Can anyone advise me is this capacitor likely to fail in the near future or still good to use.

      EDMI ATLAS MK10 Electronic Meter Discussion
      by Stephan Mathers
      Greetings, new guy here but always interested in the crazy universe of modding

      We just finished construction of around 25 vacation houses, all inside the same private area.
      Each house has 3phase power , and we bought an atlas MK10 meter for each house (25 meters total ! )

      The metering on a per-house basis is done privately. Its not done by a utility company. The utility company will only charge us for the total consumption of all 25 houses together.

      Id like to do a small modification on the firmware of our MK10 to make it easier identify each house's...
