Description

A Capacimeter + Inductometer based on Arduino Nano.

README

LC Meter v2.0

A Capacimeter + Inductometer based on Arduino Nano.
Capacitor measurement with 3 working modes: accuracy (slow), balanced and speed.

Case 3D model included ;-)

This proyect was inspired on video Medidor de Bobinas/Inductores y Capacitores con Arduino y Display LCD (spanish) from Electgpl YouTube channel.
