Case for LCR-T4 component tester

thingiverse

This is a case for the LCR-T4 variant of the widely acclaimed universal transistor and component tester designed by Markus Frejek and later refined by Karl-Heinz Kübbeler. A detailed description of the project can be found here: http://mikrocontroller.net/articles/AVR_Transistortester This case is specifically tailored to fit the version with a graphical display available on Ebay and elsewhere, also known as LCR-T4. The case features a compartment for the battery and grants access to the surface mount component test area. Additionally, the pinout for the 14-pin ZIF test socket is printed on the case for reference purposes. It's worth noting that there are several distinct variants of this tester available in the market. This case has been specifically designed to accommodate only the LCR-T4 variant. To assemble the top and bottom sections of the case, you will need four M3x15 countersunk screws. The PCB for this case is T4-specific. Although the T4 is somewhat similar to the T3 PCB, it's essential to recognize that they are not identical and don't share the same case design. Other variants are also available in the market. Before initiating your print job, carefully examine the images of the PCB to ensure you have the correct PCB variant. If you're looking for cases designed for other variants, there is one specifically for the T3 here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:694790 and two others can be found here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1580922 and here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1920077 For a variant with an alphanumeric display, a case is available here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:641003. Important note: A version known as glcd_tester_lcr_t4_extra has the ability to accommodate PCBs up to 2 mm larger on its righthand side. It appears some versions of the T4 may possess this feature, making it compatible with both the original and expanded PCB configurations.
