- In this video, I'll present it to you a simple yet powerful LC meter using ATmega328 or Arduino Nano. With this DIY LC meter, you can measure inductance and capacitance values quickly and accurately, making it a valuable tool for electronics enthusiasts and hobbyists.
The LC meter uses ATmega328 microcontroller or you can use an Arduino board, along with some basic electronic components, to perform the measurements. It can measure a wide range of inductance values, from small inductors from 2uH to larger inductors in the millihenry range. Additionally, it can measure capacitance values from nanofarads to microfarads.
Key features of the DIY LC meter:
Measure inductance values from from 2uH to millihenries
Measure capacitance values from nanofarads to microfarads
It displays the frequency when it measures the inductors
It displays the battery level from 0 to 100 %
Easy-to-use interface with an OLED display for clear readings
Auto-ranging capability for seamless measurements
Whether you're a beginner in electronics or an experienced maker, this LC meter project is a fun and educational way to delve into the world of capacitance and inductance measurements.

Really nice design man. Great hardware design. I believe if you want to add to it in the future, you can use just two pins of atmega328 to measure very very low capacitance, down to pF. There are codes around. May be a feature for the future if you feel like it.
Looks good. Will examine your project files. Well done 😊
Thanks. All the files is there, it works great but of course there is still room for improvements.
I am looking forward to your next project. Thanks for all your great projects.
Thank you as well, next week hopefully I will post the video with the new project.
Your DIY Project are really cool, I like the way how you creat your Projects! at the end of the Video i saw that the battery monitoring does not work correctly, maybe you Publish a Enhanced Version of your LC Meter in Future. I saw that the maximum Range of Capacitance mesuring is 10nF to 10uF? What is the minimum and the maximum mesurment of the Inductance?
I Hope to see more DIY Projects like that, Thumbs UP for your Project!
Thank you. The battery level indicator is kinda do what I want it to do, let me explain. Battery level indicator is made by measuring the voltage of the battery, the 'rawV' value in the code represents the battery voltage, is multiplied by 10 and then mapped from 35 to 40 representing the voltage, the range of 3.5 and 4.0 volts will be divided into five equal parts each representing 20%, therefore the battery level is displayed in increments of 20% . For example: if the battery voltage is 4 volts the battery level will be 100% and if the battery voltage 3.9 volts the battery level will be 80%, the only problem is that if the battery voltage is in between 4.0 and 3.9 volts the battery percentage displayed will jump between 80% and 100%, one way to solve this problem will be to multiply by 100 which will change the battery level indicator in increments of 1%. Now for the capacitance measurement with the method I use it is impossible to measure volues from 1 pF to 1000 uF therefore can measure either small values or larger values, if we change the charging resistor R6 to 10 M we can measure capacitors ranging from 10 pF to 100 nF and if we decrease R6 value 100K or 10k we can measure capacitor values from 1uF to 100 uF or 1000 uF. And to answer the last question, I was able to measure inductors from 2.5 uH to 185 mH, the largest value that I had at hand. Of course there more room for improvements for this metter. Thanks again and stay tuned, hopefully next week I will post a video with the new diy project that I've made.
We nead next osilascop project from stM32 blupil board ..😁
hello, congratulations for this project, beautiful and very good! I will try to do it myself as soon as possible, I have been looking for something to measure inductors for a very long time ....! Thanks for sharing the files!
Very helpful project for homebrewers. Thanks 🎉
Отличный проект. Все работает . Спасибо!
You could also add a DW01 with the 4056, as it adds overcharge and overdischarge protection for the lipo cell.
Can you make a video about process of making the pcbs.
Probably I will do a video about it, but I can't say when.
Can it measure 1uH ??
And we need how to make micro scoop from leptop usb camera 😁 .. fro smd pcb soldering ..😊
Hello when will you upload how to make 858 hot air gun controller circuit 🙂😊😊😊
Hi. Is definitely on the next project list, I see that I have more and more requests for the hot air station, for now I have another project that will post a video soon.
😍😍😍😍😍👌👌👌🙏📯📯🎷🎸🎹
Ok sir 😁
Excellent
Bro that's amazing
next content: diy hot air station
That would be good!
Actually I have another project that I have to make a video about it, but the hot air station is on the list too.
@@HMProjects we await news 😊
@@robertbruce7686 Hopefully it will not take too long since I have a little bit more free time in the next couple months. 😉
@@HMProjects No problem
Wow
Can MH indicator chek
Yes, it can measure in the mH range, if this is what you referring to, I measure values from 2.5 uH to 185 mH.
Wow nice 😁😍
It doesn't work. Button doesn't work. Give libraries. Just don't talk about github
