Analysis and Processing of Result
Calculate the equivalent circuit parameter and simulate the frequency 
characteristics
When the equivalent circuit parameter has been calculated based on the result of sample 
measurement, we recommend that frequency characteristics be simulated based on the 
equivalent circuit parameter by following the procedures to “Simulate the frequency 
characteristics based on the equivalent circuit parameter” (below). The adequacy of the 
selected equivalent circuit and validity of the parameter calculation result can be verified 
by comparison between the frequency characteristics of the actual sample and the 
simulation result.
To calculate the equivalent circuit parameter for a resonator, another possible method, in 
addition to the method of equivalent circuit analysis used in the equivalent circuit E 
discussed above, is to use the specifically designed GP-IB command. For details, see 
Programming Manual.
Simulate the frequency characteristics based on the equivalent circuit 
parameter
Simulate the frequency characteristics according to the following steps:
NOTE Start from Step 12 when you want to simulate the frequency characteristics on the basis of 
the equivalent circuit parameter calculated according to the procedure of “Calculate the 
equivalent circuit parameter based on the measurement result” on page  249.
Step 1. Press the 
[Display] key to display the Display menu.
Step 2. Press the more 1/2 key to display the second page of the Display menu.
Step 3. Press the 
EQUIV CKT key to display the Equivalent Circuit Analysis menu.
Step 4. Press the 
CKT on OFF key to turn on the equivalent circuit diagram indication function. The 
equivalent circuit diagram, instead of the measurement trace, is shown on the screen. This will 
enable you to check the equivalent circuit to be selected in the next step. It should be noted that 
equivalent circuit analysis is enabled without having to turn on this display.
Step 5. Press the 
SELECT CIRCUIT key to display the Equivalent Circuit Select menu.
Step 6. Select the equivalent circuit according to Table 8-3 on page  250 (using keys 
A, B, C, D and E).
Step 7. Press the 
return key to go back to the Equivalent Circuit Analysis menu.
Step 8. Press the 
DEFINE PARAMETERS key to display the Equivalent Circuit Parameter 
Definition menu.
Step 9. Use the 
R1, C1, L1 and C0 keys to select the equivalent circuit parameter where the 
numerical value is to be entered. 
The current set value of the equivalent circuit parameter is displayed in the set parameter
