GW Instek LCR-8101G - Impedance (Z) and Admittance (y = 1;Z)

BASIC MEASUREMENT
45
Impedance (Z) and Admittance (Y = 1/Z)
Background
Impedance measures the total amount of
opposition between two terminals in an AC circuit.
Admittance is the reciprocal of Impedance and
measures how easily the electricity flows in an AC
circuit.
