Precision Impedance Analyzer1

A precision impedance analyzer is a sophisticated electronic instrument used to measure the electrical impedance of components and systems. Impedance is a complex quantity that represents the opposition to the flow of alternating current (AC) in a circuit. It includes both resistance (the real part) and reactance (the imaginary part).

Description

Key Components and Functions

  1. Signal Generator: Generates a stable AC signal with a precisely controlled frequency and amplitude.
  2. Measurement Circuit: Contains a network of resistors, capacitors, and inductors that can be configured to measure impedance in different modes (e.g., series, parallel).
  3. Detector: Measures the voltage and current signals across the measurement circuit.
  4. Calculator: Calculates the impedance based on the measured voltage and current values.
  5. Display: Presents the calculated impedance data, often in complex number format or as a Nyquist plot.
