The Sencore LC77 AUTO-Z is an automatic microprocessor-controlled capacitor and inductor analyzer designed to test components without the need for manual calculations, interpretation, or error, using internal EIA and industry standards. It provides features such as measuring capacitor value, leakage, dielectric absorption, and ESR, as well as inductor value, and is intended to be operated by technically trained personnel.
Manual Overview
The Sencore LC77 AUTO-Z is a microprocessor-controlled capacitor and inductor analyzer designed to streamline troubleshooting by eliminating calculation errors and interpretation. It automatically tests components against internal EIA and industry standards, providing a clear good or bad result. The LC77 measures capacitor value, leakage, dielectric absorption, and equivalent series resistance (ESR), as well as inductor value using a patented ringing test. It applies DC voltage from 1 to 1000 volts in programmable steps for leakage and high-potential tests. The device is portable, battery-operated, and features automatic lead zeroing to remove stray inductance, capacitance, and resistance, ensuring accurate readings. The LC77’s introduction addresses the increasing complexity in electronics, where capacitors and inductors are used more frequently and with tighter tolerances. The analyzer is particularly beneficial for technicians dealing with the growing number of capacitors and inductors in modern electronics, providing a reliable tool for efficient and error-free component testing.
