Notes:
1. The output is continuously variable from 190 pF to 110 mF.
2. Specifications apply to both dc charge/discharge capacitance meters and ac RCL meters. The
maximum allowable peak voltage is 3 V. The maximum allowable peak current is 150 mA, with an rms
limitation of 30 mA below 1.1 µF and 100 mA for 1.1 µF and above.
3. The maximum lead resistance for no additional error in 2-wire COMP mode is 10 Ω.
