RESISTANCE HiTESTER RM3542 featuring ultra-high speed and precision, characteristics that make it ideal for use with automatic testing systems. Used in combination with such systems, the instrument can perform automatic, high-speed shipping inspections for mass-produced resistors and other components to the industry s highest standards.

FEATURES

• Industry-leading ultra-high-speed and ultra-high-precision resistance measurement
  • The RM3542 employs the DC four-terminal method to measure resistors, chip inductors, EMC components, and other parts at high speed and precision. The instrument can test 1% tolerance (F-type) resistors in as little as 0.9 ms (according to HIOKI findings).
  • Under standard settings, accuracy of +/-0.011% is guaranteed for 1 kΩ measurement in fast mode (at a measurement speed of 0.9 ms).
• High-resolution, 7-digit display
  • Thanks to its high-resolution, 7-digit display and broad measurement range of 0 Ω (0.0000 mΩ) to 120.0000 MΩ, the RESISTANCE HiTESTER RM3542 can also test 0.1% tolerance (B-type) resistors.
• Contact check to ensure measurement reliability
  • A continuous contact check function monitors whether the resistor or other component under measurement is being properly measured at all times. A voltage monitor function can detect failed measurements, and the instrument can repeat measurements in a reliable manner. This functionality combines to increase measurement reliability.

• Low-power resistance measurement
  • The RM3542 supports low-power resistance measurement with limited measurement currents in the 1,000 mΩ to 1,000 Ω range, enabling testing of parts such as chip inductors and EMC components that must be measured using low currents.
• Saving and outputting measured values
  • The RM3542 can store up to 30,000 measurement data points in its memory. The ability to transfer measurement data for an entire reel of chip resistors to a computer or other device after testing of the reel is complete makes a significant contribution to quality control.
