Hioki IM3570 Impedance Analyzer

Overview

The Hioki IM3570 Impedance Analyzer is a multi-function measurement instrument that consolidates LCR, DCR (direct current resistance), and frequency sweep capabilities into a single unit. The analyzer is engineered for high-speed continuous testing, enabling inspection lines that previously required multiple instruments to operate with just one device.

With measurement frequencies from 4 Hz to 5 MHz, test signal levels from 5 mV to 5 V, and test speeds as fast as 0.5 milliseconds at 100 kHz, the IM3570 is ideal for characterizing resonance in piezoelectric elements, low-ESR capacitors, and inductor quality factors.

Key Features

• Measurement Modes: LCR, DCR, Sweep, and Continuous
• Frequency Range: 4 Hz to 5 MHz with variable test signal levels (5 mV to 5 V)
• Test Speed: 1.5 ms at 1 kHz, 0.5 ms at 100 kHz
• Basic Accuracy (Z parameter): ±0.08%
• Analyzer Mode: Frequency sweeps, level sweeps, and time interval measurements
• High-Speed Condition Switching: Rapidly change measurement parameters between tests
• Resonance Characteristic Analysis: Piezoelectric element evaluation
• Low-ESR Measurement: Functional polymer capacitor testing
• Inductor Testing: DCR and L-Q measurement of coils and transformers

Applications

• Resonance characteristic analysis of piezoelectric elements
• Low-ESR and C-D measurement of functional polymer capacitors
• Inductor DCR and L-Q measurement for coils and transformers
• High-speed automated component characterization in production
• Research and development of electronic components
