Great workWhen the (TH) through hole version is finished would it be possible for you to include a 1:1 scale PDF of the bottom and top layers for toner transfer/ home etching and a full schematic ?
Thanks
Rupert
Of course!

Version 06o OnLine.
SelfTest Function (short all probes and push button). Show debug info of ArduTester
SelfAdjust (installed but not yet implemented)
Minor bug fixes
Great work
I notice that on breadboard the capacitance tests are not that great, and even with no cap in place you still get significant reading.I realize this probably to do with the capacitance of leads/connections.
A relative function would be great to "REL" the leads rather than trimming in the code.
I was also thinking that a ESR reading of the cap may also be a useful measurement to display.
Cheers

You can increase de value of #define CAP_PROBELEADS & #define CAP_WIRES

Hi Rupert,
the code is in constant development and in a few days will be released an improved version.
I'm working on inductance meter and ESR meter; all in ArduTester!
with 07 version will be introduced a new function: PC link.
I'm writing a cross-platform software that once you connected to Ardutest provide additional information about tested components.
a cross-platform software
which language?

Realbasic
I'm continuing the development of software that will interface with Ardutester.
I will not reveal all of the features it will have, will be a surprise.
A nice thing, which I think no one has ever implemented, it's the acquisition of data and access to a database of components.
I decided to extract a part (The transistor finder) and publish it:
This is an alpha version, only makes the transistor search. The final version will provide a lots of information of the transistor.
A small summary:

Could you please tell me how you made the picture of the PCB prototype?
you are creating an amazing tool, keep it up!

I'm using Sprint Layout 6.

Thanks!
I released a new version of the transistor finder software (same download).
This is the latest version of Transistor Finder.
Will be the last in every sense because the next will be integrated into the ArduTester software.

Bye,
PighiXXX
Any updates on new firmware?
Thanks for your hard work
Rupert
Thanks Rupert.
In next days i release a new version with esr meter and inductance meter and link with Ardutester software.
Stay tuned
Pighixxx
Any updates ? i keep checking twice a day
Thanks

Hi
I'm finishing interfacing Ardutester with the program; I'm almost done!
Meanwhile there is a new version (Version P) which also accepts non-i2c lcd and were made minor bug fixes. (Attached)
This is a preview of Ardutester software
ardutester.ino (129 KB)
Very elegant interface too! I'd love to either buy one of your shields, or else would at least like to make one for myself.
Any chance that you will release the Eagle/KiCad files as well? I see you've already sourced the Gerbers.
I hope you are taking time for yourself & not putting all your time & resources into this.
It's an amazing project & you have excelled in so many ways, i am hoping you do not exhaust your creativity or health.
We salute you
Hi,
I did not forget the project, only in this period are taken from work commitments.
Besides, I'm opening the Fablab of my city.
This weekend there's the Italian Arduino community meeting and there will be a chance to complete the last things of Ardutester.
Thanks Again,
Alberto
Hi!
I'm optimizing both the circuit and the software. I'm testing Ardutester on Arduino 2009, R2 and R3 and there are inconsistencies. I have already found the problem so within a couple of days I will post the new version. (PCB, firmware and client software).
Thanks,
PighiXXX
