Product Introduction

The Keysight E4981A is a capacitance meter for ceramic capacitor production
tests. The E4981A is used for evaluating ceramic capacitance at frequencies
120 Hz, 1 kHz to 1 MHz and test signal levels (0.1 mV to 1 V).
The E4981A offers C-D measurement with a basic accuracy of ±0.07% (C),
±0.0005 (D) at all frequencies with seven-digit resolution (the dissipation factor
resolution is 1×10
With its built-in comparator, the E4981A can output comparison/decision
results for sorting components into a maximum of ten bins. Furthermore, by
using the handler interface and scanner interface, the E4981A can be easily
combined with a component handler, a scanner, and a system controller to
fully automate component testing, sorting, and quality-control data
processing.
The GPIB/LAN/USB interfaces are standard on the E4981A and enable
automatic testing.
