Function Details
C-V Sweep Measurement
The MFCMU will internally perform the error correction for the CMU cables and
CMU accessories that keep the four-terminal pair configuration.
For the measurements for evaluating DUT against a working s
tandard, perform the
open/short/load correction.
However, you have to consider that some parasitic remain in measurement path
even after perfo
rming corrections. To minimize the influence of parasitic, make the
signal path from the shield ends to the DUT as short as possible.
To perform the phase compensation and error correction, see “CMU Calibration” on
page 4-37.
