Connecting Measurement Devices
This section describes how to connect device under test (DUT) to the 16442B test
fixture (B1500A-A5F), and how to connect cables to the connector plate.
If you use a wafer prober, see wafer prober manuals.
Note that you must set the module output off when connecting or disconnecting
DUTs. If not, the DUTs may be damaged.
To set the module output off, press the
Stop key.
This section has the following descriptions:
• “Using Test Fixture”
• “Using Connector Plate”
NOTE
Kelvin connection and non-Kelvin connection
To make the Kelvin connection (remote sensing), use both Force and Sense
terminals. Connecting the Force and Sense lines together at the terminal of the DUT
(device under test) minimizes the measurement error caused by the residual
resistance of the connection cables. The Kelvin connection is effective for the low
resistance measurement and the high current measurement.
If you want to simplify the cable connections, open the Sense terminals and use the
Force terminals only. This is the non-Kelvin connection. The Force terminals can be
used to force and measure dc voltage or current.
