## Detailed Components

### 🔧 Dual Reference Capacitors (100nF & 5µF)
- **100nF:** For higher inductance (mH range) with enhanced accuracy  
- **5µF:** Ideal for lower inductance (µH range) ensuring frequency stability

### 🟢 TLV3202 Comparator
- Ultra-high-speed and low-power
- Ensures precise detection of LC oscillations

### ⚡ IP2312 Battery Management IC
- Supports USB Type-C charging (5V, up to 3A)
- Provides overvoltage, undervoltage, and overcurrent protection
- Delivers a stable 3.3V output with buck-boost regulation

### 📟 2.4-inch OLED Display
- Connected via I²C for reduced wiring complexity
- Stacked on the PCB using screws for a compact design
- Displays real-time inductance, frequency, and battery status
