They enable chip type capacitors, inductors and other components to be measured with high precision and measurement repeatability. The 16196A/B/C/D also is compatible with measuring frequencies up to 3GHz.
  • Page 14 After passing through the DUT (Device Under Test), the current flows to the outer conductor via the cap electrode and returns to the outer conductor of the 7-mm connector.

Flow of Measurements Follow the steps below when performing measurements of DUTs with the 16196A/B/C/D.

  • Page 20: Selecting And Changing The Insulator Assembly

    To take accurate and repeatable measurements, it is necessary for the DUT to be placed in the DUT insertion hole and be stable. For that reason, the 16196A and 16196B each are provided with 3 types of insulator assembly which have DUT insertion holes with different diameters (the 16196C has only one type of insulator assembly, and the 16196D has two types of insulator assembly).

  • Page 25: Performing Fixture Compensation

    In order to perform more accurate measurements, before beginning the measurement procedure, it is necessary to compensate the fixture. For the 16196A/B/C/D, perform measurements of the data for open compensation and of the data for short compensation. The 16196A/B/C/D requires frequent wear checks to keep the best measurement accuracy.
