Accurate automated testing by calibration with different reference values
It is very important to eliminate complicated error elements caused by the use of test fixtures and cables that extend the test head of the E4982A. This is especially true for measurements that use an automated component handler. Accurate measurements, which correlate well with results obtained from manual testing, can be achieved at the measurement plane of a test fixture by performing open/short/load calibration with a “working” load standard.
Since different calibration standard reference values can be independently set at each list measurement frequency, multifrequency measurements can be made accurately with this reliable calibration function.
