Keysight E4980AL Precision LCR Meter 0.05% Accuracy 20 Hz-300 kHz 4-Terminal Pair USB LAN
Keysight E4980AL Precision LCR Meter (20 Hz to 300 kHz / 500 kHz / 1 MHz)
The Keysight E4980AL precision LCR meter delivers the measurement performance, speed, and versatility required for component and material evaluation in R&D and production lines. With a basic accuracy of 0.05%, a wide 20 Hz to 1 MHz frequency range, and fast 5.6 ms measurement speed, the E4980AL is the go-to bench instrument for reliable impedance testing of capacitors, inductors, resistors, transformers, and semiconductor components.
Key Features
- 0.05% Basic Accuracy — reliable and repeatable impedance measurements across a wide impedance range.
- 20 Hz to 300 kHz Standard, up to 1 MHz (Option) — covers low-frequency power components through high-frequency ceramic capacitors and inductors.
- Fast 5.6 ms Measurement Speed — boosts throughput on high-volume production test lines.
- 4-Terminal Pair (Kelvin) Configuration — minimizes lead effects for accurate low-impedance measurement.
- 201-Point List Sweep — single-point, auto, and list sweep modes for flexible characterization.
- Built-in DC Bias (0 to +/-2 V standard, up to +/-40 V with Option 001) — evaluate components under realistic DC bias conditions.
- Comprehensive Parameter Set — |Z|, |Y|, C, L, D, Q, R, X, G, B, theta, Rp, Rs and ESR with one instrument.
- Intuitive 320 x 240 LCD Interface — straightforward front-panel operation and clear readouts.
- Flexible Connectivity — USB host/device and LAN standard, GPIB and Handler interface optional.
Typical Applications
- R&D and incoming inspection of capacitors, inductors, and resistors
- Production line testing of passive components and materials
- Semiconductor and dielectric material characterization
- Transformer, coil, and filter impedance evaluation
