Using Agilent iPACE Verification Tool

Overview

The Agilent iPACE Verification Tool can perform the following test and measurements.

This tool will be helpful to specify the defective components of the Agilent 41000 or to

know the measurement ability of whole system including the extended measurement paths

and so on. It is also useful for the system administration.

• Self-test

Performs self-test of each instrument. You can see the test results on the Verification

Tool window or the log file.

• Connection check

Controls the specified instrument to force voltage. You can see the results on the

Verification Tool window or the log file.

This function will be helpful to specify the defective components by monitoring the

voltage at the end of the probe card interface, measurement cables, instrument

terminals, and so on.

• Noise offset measurement

Performs noise offset measurements. You can see the measurement results on the

Verification Tool window or the log file.

• Settling time/leakage current measurement

Performs settling time and leakage current measurements. You can see the

measurement results on the Verification Tool window or the log file.

• Automatic Execution

Performs any of the self-test, connection check, noise offset measurement,

settling

time/leakage current measurement automatically.

• Result Data Record

The result data will be logged into the log file. The default file is as follows.

folder: <installed folder>/bin

file name: iPACE Verification Tool (Report).txt

For example, <installed folder> will be as follows.

C:\Program Files\Agilent\iPACE Verification Tool A.01.00

NOTE To Change the Log File
