The Agilent 4395A/96B can perform
direct impedance measurements with
the addition of Option 439xx-010 and
the Agilent 43961A RF impedance
test kit. Covering from 100 kHz,
impedance parameters |Z|,

θ, C, L,

Q, D and more are measured and
displayed directly on the color TFT
LCD display. For the Agilent 4395A,
the Option 4395A-001 DC source is
available to apply to the device, up
to ±40 V maximum.

Direct display of impedance data

The impedance measurement
capability provides powerful display
choices, allowing direct parameter
versus frequency display. Measure
and display capacitance, inductance,
and impedance magnitude and phase,
and more, as functions of frequency.
In addition, a lumped equivalent
circuit function aids component
modeling and simulation.

Many applicable fixtures and
powerful error compensation

Many 7-mm connector type test
fixtures can be used for the
Agilent combination analyzer with
Option 439xx-010 and the 43961A
impedance test kit because the
43961A employs the 7-mm connector
as the measurement port. So, you can
select an appropriate fixture among
them. The combination analyzer with
Option 439xx-010 has the powerful
OPEN/SHORT/LOAD compensation,
and port extension compensation,
which eliminate any errors introduced
by the test fixture and allow accurate
direct impedance measurements.
