Performing LOAD
Correction
To perform LOAD correction data measurement, connect the LOAD
standard to the measurement contacts.
Preparing the Standard
It is necessary to prepare the working standard, such as a standard
resistor and standard capacitor. It is recommended that y
ou select
a standard whose imp edance is as close as possible to DUT's
imp edance. The following are recommendations for selecting
standards.
For capacitance measurements:
A standard capacitor whose capacitance is nearly equal to the
DUT capacitance is recommended.
For resistance measurements:
A standard resistor whose resistance is nearly equal to DUT's
resistance is recommended.
For inductance measurements:
A standard inductor whose inductance is nearly equal to DUT's
inductance is recommended.
Reference Values of the LOAD Standard
Enter sp ecied reference values of the standard as the
REF A
and
REF B
values using the appropreate function on the
CORRECTION
page. For example, When using a standard capacitor which has
a specied parallel capacitance and D v
alues, enter the specied
