Fixture overview
Up to 3 GHz (7 mm) SMD
Description: This test fixture is designed for impedance
evaluations of parallel electrode SMDs. It achieves stable
frequency characteristics up to 3 GHz and provides highly
repeatable measurements. The applicable SMD size code
is 0603 (inch)/1608 (mm).
Applicable Instrument: 4287A, 4294A + 42942A, 4395A
with Opt.4395A-010 + 43961A, 4396B with Opt.4396B-010 +
43961A, E4991A
When used with 16085B: 4263B, 4268A, 4279A*, 4284A*,
4285A, 4288A, E4980A, E4981A
* denotes the instrument is obsolete.
Frequency: DC to 3 GHz
Maximum Voltage: ±40 V peak max (AC +DC)
Operating Temperature: -55°C to +85°C
DUT size: The applicable SMD size is 0603 (inch)/1608
(mm). For details, see the figure below.
The 16196A is furnished with three different insulator
assemblies, since any gaps between the DUT and the
cylindrical insulator will result in improper positioning
and subsequent measurement errors. Select an insulator
assembly that reduces the gap the most. See the table
below for dimensions of the insulator assemblies.
