Up to 3 GHz (7 mm) SMD
Options:
16196B-710: Add the magnifying lens and tweezers
To maintain adequate measurement performance, keep
the electrodes and the short plate in good condition.
Contaminants and abrasion on these parts considerably
affect measurement results, especially for low value mea-
surements. Periodic fixture cleaning and part replace-
ment is recommended to avoid deterioration of measure-
ment performance. The 16196x fixtures are designed with
simplicity in mind, so that an operator can easily replace
parts. Spare parts, which are likely to be abraded, are
supplied with the 16196U Maintenance Kit.
16196U Maintenance Kit
Opt. 16196U-010: Upper electrode, 5 piece set (common
to all 16196x models)
Opt. 16196U-200: Short plate for 0402 (inch)/1005 (mm)
size, 5 piece set (for 16196B)
Opt. 16196U-210: Lower electrode, 5 piece set (for
16196B)
Compensation and Measurement: First of all, install
the appropriate insulator assembly into the fixture. Then,
perform compensation. Open and short compensations are
recommended in combination with the electrical length
compensation before measurement. The fixture’s electri-
cal length must be entered into the electrical length com-
pensation function of the measurement instrument first.
Next, open compensation is performed by placing the fur-
nished open plate on top of the insulator assembly. Short
compensation is performed by placing the furnished short-
ing plate on top of the insulator assembly. After perform-
ing open and short compensations in combination with
the electrical length compensation, the DUT is inserted
into the test fixture. Once the measurement of the DUT is
complete, remove the DUT from the fixture, by using the
furnished push ring. Refer to the 16196A figures to see
how compensation and measurement is performed.
