5 Using Load Cards and Loads

Connecting Loads

Loads are mounted externally and connected to the load card

via wires or cables. The loads are wired to connectors P1 and P2

which mate to the Agilent E6176A’s J1 and J2 connectors,

respectively. Figure 5-13 shows these connectors.

Load Wiring

Figure 5-23 is a simplified schematic and connector pinouts

showing how loads are connected to P1/P2. Loads 1 through 8

connect to P1 and loads 9 through 16 connect to P2.

CAUTION

To prevent premature pin failure from excessive current flow,

when connecting high-current (>3 amp) loads to P1, wire

across all three pins in each row (see Figure 5-24 on page

34).
