Detailed Product Overview

Reliable evaluation of passive components such as capacitors, resistors, inductors, and wound components typically requires an LCR meter covering frequencies up to 200 kHz. The HIOKI IM3533 is designed for this purpose and supports measurements from DC and 1 mHz to 200 kHz. With a guaranteed measurement range from 10 mΩ to 200 MΩ, a basic accuracy of ±0.05%, and a typical measurement speed of 2 ms, it is suitable for both development tasks and production testing.

Test signal voltage and current can be adjusted from 5 mV to 5 V and from 10 μA to 50 mA. In the low impedance high accuracy mode, test currents up to 100 mA are available. This allows measurement conditions to be adapted to different component types, from small passive parts to large power inductors.

Low-Impedance and Winding Measurements

In addition to standard LCR measurements, the IM3533 provides a low impedance high accuracy mode in which the output resistance is reduced to 25 Ω. This improves measurement stability for low-impedance components such as low-inductance coils and aluminum electrolytic capacitors.

A dedicated transformer measurement mode supports the evaluation of wound components by directly measuring parameters such as turns ratio, mutual inductance, and inductance difference, eliminating the need for manual calculation from individual LCR results.

DC Resistance, Selection, and Bias Functions

The IM3533 enables DC resistance measurement of coils and windings within its guaranteed measurement range of 10 mΩ to 200 MΩ. Optional temperature compensation using the 9478 Sheath Type Temperature Probe allows resistance values to be referenced to a defined temperature, reducing temperature-related variation in production and incoming inspection. Comparator and BIN functions are available for limit checking and component selection, supporting automated pass or fail decisions in production test sequences.

An internal DC bias source of ±5 V is provided for voltage-dependent measurements of components such as polarized capacitors. For higher bias requirements, external DC bias sources can be connected via optional bias units. The 9268-10 DC Bias Voltage Unit allows external DC voltage sources up to ±40 V to be coupled to the measurement path, while the 9269-10 DC Bias Current Unit supports the connection of external DC current sources up to 2 A.

Ease of Use and Connectivity

A 5.7 inch color TFT touch display provides direct access to measurement parameters and results. Measurement data can be stored on a USB memory device for documentation and offline analysis. USB and handler I O are provided as standard interfaces. Optional LAN, RS-232C, and GP-IB interfaces support integration into automated test systems and existing production setups. Designed and manufactured in Japan, the IM3533 reflects HIOKI’s focus on long-term measurement stability for daily engineering and production use.
