ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is disclosed for determining the impedance and dissipation factor of a capacitive and/or inductive device and to reduce measurement error by digital calculation and manipulation. A synchronous rectifying means, a phase shifter and a detecting means are employed to detect the in-phase and orthogonal components of the current through a device and to compare it to a reference voltage impressed across the device. An arithmetical calculation using the values of these components determines the impedance and the dissipation factor of the device.
