I've watched 2 different youtube videos comparing the readings on the DER EE against high-end bench equipment - the DER EE is insanely accurate
Three of the meters need to go trough calibration mode beforehand for first use. I got two of them. One is the MK-328 which in fact is far the easiest meter to use. Don't turn it on before you have the test leads on the subject. Just push the button and it's ready. It's is for the price very precise compared to my HP pro meter.
I use the MESR 1OO and find it very good. No issues with it.
You might already know this by now but capacitance is measured at 120Hz and ESR is measured at 100KHz hence why you were getting strange readings from the DER EE. The MESR probably alternates between the two frequencies but the DER EE does a lot more than ESR tests therefore you have to select the right frequency for the test that you are doing.
That would be the most laid-back electronics video clip I've ever seen on RUclips. Good to see that my "Silicon Chip" meter stacks up OK against some of the opposition.
I have the DER EE DE-5000 and changed the clips to better ones as seen on TRX bench,, works well
Thanks for sharing this video but I don't understand why you turned off/on each time the instruments. It was frustrating.
What if you want to measure a capacitor that falls outside the given ESR table? For example, I have a 400volt 80 Farad capacitor in circuit. How would I test that one to make sure it is good using the MESR-100? Or, can it be done at all using this meter?
The DER EE DE 5000 is by far the best , read the reviews...
Thanks for the quick useful demonstration of ESR meters
The second tester from the left, I think you can just power it up by the TEST button, but you must have the leads connected first!
Good video. Would love to see more tests though. Testing a few good caps at different values would be interesting to show how accurate each meter is.
Why haven't you plugged the capasitor directly into DE-5000 slots? Or at least you should use TL/21 attachment with alligators instead of TL/22 tweezers.
yeah some prep is good, but over-preparation into the realm of lifeless/clinical is also pretty awful. thanks for the video .. helped me a lot.
I have the MK-328, and for the money that I paid ($28 US on Amazon) I have been happy with it. It can test capacitors, as well as transistors (NPN-PNP-FET), diodes, & thyristors. The case is not the best, but I keep it on the bench. I believe the test frequency is 8 Khz. Amazon also sells a model without a case (model M28), that you could put into your own case.
Apart from the MK-328 who's frequency no seller lists in the specifications they are or can be set to 100 Khz - which is what capacitor data sheets test them at - i.e. the ideal frequency for smallish capacitors
Those Chinese tester things do have a calibration routine, short all three test leads together and press test it'll ask you to run calibration. Also I found the grabber leads and not that great as they have a habit of oxidizing and the wire strands like to snap over time.
great comparison..how about their inductance measurement accuracy? do they all agree to some degree?
Which meter is the third one.
MK-328 is a sub-par clone version of the German OSHW AVR Transistor Tester project that can be found at mikrocontroller dot net /articles/AVR_Transistortester. English and alternate firmware support is available on the EEVBlog forum. The tester is not intended as a replacement for a LCR or ESR meter. It is just a ballpark figure. There is extensive documentation available through the official project forum thread, article, and SVN repo with a mirror of the SVN repo also available through github. The project was developed as an exercise in ultra simple hardware while pushing the limits of the internal hardware of the AVR MCU through a combination of C and Assembly. Basically this is the balls to the wall limits of an ATmega ADC. You can update the firmware or add project options for additional functionality ;)
