FAQ: How do you measure equivalent series resistance, ESR, in an ultra-capacitor using the 14585A software and the N6705 DC Power Analyzer?

The 14585A software provides control, measurement, and analysis for the N6705 DC Power Analyzer. Testing the equivalent series resistance, ESR, of a super capacitor or an ultra capacitor is made simple with these products. For an overview, watch the video on Measuring Equivalent Series Resistance, ESR & Capacitance of an Ultra-Capacitor.
