Component Testers
IC, ESR & Logic Probe Testers
Features & Benefits
■ Auto identification mode
■ Conditional/unconditional loop testing 
mode
■ Functional test unit emulates passive 
circuitry to implement a comprehensive 
test in a variety of configurations and 
gain settings
■ Displays diagnostic information down 
to individual component pins
The 570A interfaces with analog ICs and the
575A with digital ICs. Both versions emulate
passive circuitry around the IC under test to
ensure that a comprehensive test takes place.
High integrity verification offers guaranteed
levels of reliability in the results. Conditional
and unconditional loop testing modes ensure
that intermittent and/or temperature related
faults are detected. The units automatically
sense the functionality of the device to 
be tested and display a list of possible 
equivalents for replacement. Unmarked 
and house-coded ICs can be identified and
tested.

In-Circuit ESR & DCR Capacitor Tester
The 881 is a portable In-Circuit ESR Meter
that measures the equivalent series 
resistance of electrolytic capacitors in or out
of circuit and can also be used to measure
low value non-inductive resistors. In-circuit
measurements are dependent on the circuit
design of the capacitor being measured.
Features & Benefits
■ Measures ESR with a range of 0.1 to 
30 Ω
■ Tricolored chart shows ESR readings of 
Good, Fair, and Bad
■ Measures DCR with a range of 0.1 to
30 Ω
■ 15 mVp-p output test voltage (will not 
turn on any solid-state devices)
■ Includes a one-handed tweezer test 
probe
The 815 is a handy meter measuring 
capacitance up to 20 mF and resistance up 
to 20M Ω and can also test transistors,
diodes, SCRs, LEDs, and batteries. 
Features & Benefits
■ Transistor leakage test 
■ Diode and SCR test 
■ LED test 
■ Battery test 
For use with TTL and CMOS circuits and ICs
