| In the previous instalment [1] we saw how capacitors block DC but allow AC to pass through. But that most certainly isn't the end of it – vo...

| A capacity meter is more useful than you might expect.
| Now that I am at it, might as well add this function too. Sounds familiar? This is such a project. It measures frequency, period and duty cy...
| After the resistors that we discussed in the previous episode [1], it is now the capacitors' turn. Capacitors also can be considered resisto...
| Measure: Frequency + Period + Pulse + Pulse/period + Capacity + Event counting. Bonus: decode DCF77 pulses and show date and time. The DCF7...
| I was always envious of my friends analog ESR meter that allowed him to check and find bad capacitors while they were still in circuit. The...
| More than 7 years ago, Elektor published my 500 ppm LCR Meter AU2013. Since then I have developed a new LCR Meter, sacrificing a little on e...
| With the compliments of the Elektor Labs and Editorial teams, here comes another fresh-out-of-the-lab article that's free to download by all...
| The Capaci-Meter is a capacitance meter with a retro-style ‘Dekatron’-type arrangement of LEDs to represent two digits. It is not designed t...
| Scientists at KIT have developed a new control method for switching power supplies, which enables the replacement of reservoir electrolytic...
