However, when the frequency is higher than 10kHz, it cannot meet the measurement demand. In high frequency, the change of the clearance between test leads will directly change stray capacitance and inductance on test terminals and this problem is unavoidable, because the test leads cannot be fixed in a position.

  • Page 222 TH2829X Series Operation Manual Chapter 10 HANDLER Handler output interface with common cathode PLC schematic Note: 1. Since the default pull-up resistor R of the instrument is 100k, it may not be able to drive the optocoupler inside the PLC input terminal. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the value of the internal pull-up resistor R, to calculate with a drive current of 3 mA, R can be taken as EXTV/3.
