1. Description
This Digital LC Meter gives a direct reading of inductance and capacitance on a 3 ½ digits LCD display. Six ranges
from 1pF to 200µ F and four ranges from 1µ H to 2H give precision readings, which includes virtually all inductance
and capacitance used in electronic engineering laboratory, production, service shops and schools. Its battery
operation, light weight, and small size make it a truly portable instrument.
