You can use a multimeter with capacitance-measurement capability to measure the length of wire or cable to an open circuit. The capacitance of a pair of wires (or a wire to a shield) is directly ...

An old Electronics Designer’s Casebook described a circuit that provided capacitance measurements of 10 pF to 1 µF with 1% accuracy (Reference 1). A number of issues emerged with the circuit during ...

Have you ever found the need to measure the capacitance of a capacitor? No multimeter handy (for shame)? Well, as it turns out you can actually measure capacitance using your Arduino Uno, with no ...

This is a limited-time deal at Amazon that likely won’t stick around for long. So head over there and pick up the Fluke 107 ...

If you are just starting out in electronics, you need tools. But it is hard to build all your tools. Even though we see a lot of soldering station builds, you really ought to have a soldering iron to ...

ABB has announced the development of a portable capacitance meter, the CB-2000, that is simpler to use and easier to carry than any other measuring devices previously available. ABB has announced the ...

A capacitance sensor has been developed for measuring the protrusion of fastener heads. The capacitance sensor is easily integrated into an automated rivet installation system. The sensor is capable ...

THIS book is a theoretical and practical handbook for the use of advanced students. The best methods at present in use for measuring inductance, capacitance, and effective resistance both at low and ...
