Proof of principle circuit. Principles of a circuit with which you can measure low inductance coils, going from 0,4 Micro Henry to 170 Micro Henry or more by measuring the frequency difference that they give opposite/in relation to a series coil. This combination (L-C) with a known and unknown inductance gives a certain frequency deviation. You need a frequency counter for this experiment. Succes on measurements for higher frequencies than approx 12 MHz/16 MHz depends on the oscillator that you use, the max. frequency generated by such an oscillator, and the properties from your oscilloscope. A better measuring frequency in this demo circuit COULD be 1 MHz or 2 MHz (not tested).My video shows only a (usable) demo circuit/concept that can be evaluated and developed more for lower inductance coils. By the way, perhaps higher frequencies etc. do not make much sense (I mean: get more critical, so no suggestion to do no experiments), because coils lower than 0,4 uH are often constructed specially and have to be calculated/made in exact dimensions and materials, thus with more sophistication. More electronic circuits are available in my books, on the Lulu website, author Ko Tilman. I use this circuit because the linearity from measuring the L-C combination/frequency/calculation/formula with a 1 transistor oscillator + frequency counter is not guaranteed, especially with L-C combis connected to the base of a bipolar transistor, but with this circuit above there is more guarantee that it works well.
