Learn how to use an LCR meter, such as the Tenma 72-1046572-10465, to measure reactive components. An LCR meter uses an AC signal at different frequencies to characterize capacitors, inductors, and even resistors. They can also provide impedance measurements. These include phase angle, ESR, quality factor, and dissipation factor. You can even use the 72-1046572-10465 to sort components by their tolerance range..
