Comparator Function
ON/OFF
Description
The HP 4284A's built-in comparator can sort devices into a
maximum of ten bins (BIN 1 to BIN 9 and the OUT OF BINS bin)
using a maximum of nine pairs of primary limits and one pair of
secondary parameter limits. Also, a device whose primary parameter
is within limits, but whose secondary parameter measurement result
is not within limits can b e sorted into an AUXiliary BIN. The
comparator function is esp ecially useful when using the HP 4284A
with a comp onent handler (handler interface option is installed).
These limit settings for bin sorting are only set on the
LIMIT
