SR715/720 LCR METER
v
GENERAL INFORMATION
The SR715/720 LCR Meters are multifrequency impedance measuring instruments, capable of measuring
resistance, capacitance or inductance over a range of more than 13 orders of magnitude. The SR720 has a
basic accuracy of 0.05% and has 5 test frequencies. The SR715 has a basic accuracy of 0.2% and 4 test
frequencies.
The LCR meters are controlled by a high speed microcontroller that operates the display, keypad, RS232 and
GPIB computer interfaces, and handler interface, as well as setting measurement conditions and performing
calculations. In addition, non-volatile storage is provided for 9 complete instrument settings.
