Re: Any experiences with this ESR meter circuit?



Hello! I just finished the construction of the device, (with some changes in programming and hardware, because I used an PIC 16F690 instead of 16F873), and my impressions are not so good, because:
1) it takes too much time to charge (and measure) a larger C;
2) still, if you have enough patience, the result is quite accurate for capacitance measuring,
BUT :
3) because measuring is made by charging a C from nearly zero to 2.5V, it's more likely to not be able to use this meter in circuits,...
