G'day Topbanders, I am trying to measure the Q of large air would and toroidal inductors. I have built a jig that I use to series resonate the coil at the frequency of interest (1.8 and 3.5 MHz). The

George, I haven't personally tried this in my lab, but the method (resistive divider technique) appears sound and claims to be good for inductors up to 400: http://www.edn.com/article/CA196485.html G

Jim is on the right track here. I have a slightly different approach. What I like to do is make a parallel resonant tank with the inductor under test and a high Q capacitor. (Any NP0/C0G ceramic will

The method described by Rick above is what I use with an exception. Instead of the 1 pF coupling capacitors, I use a pair of single turn shielded links. The coil under test can then be physically pla
