Note
You
should perform
the isolation
measurement when
the highest
dynamic
range
is desired.
To perform the best isolation measurements
, you should reduce the system
bandwidth, and/or activate the averaging function.
A poorly measured isolation class can actually degrade the overall
measurement performance
. If you are in doubt
of the isolation measurement
quality, you should omit the isolation portion of
this procedure
.
Note
If loads can be connected to both port 1 and port 2 simultaneously, then the
following measurement can be performed using the
