Capacitance Compensation When Using Switching Matrix
• For E5250A:
The lines DATA05 to DATA08 should be modified for each measurement
environment. See Table 3-9. Do not modify the other lines.

Modifications of data file
C2H
(DATA05)
C2L
(DATA06)
For the connector plate, change the R, L, C values in the lines.
The value must be changed to the R, L, C values of the
C2H (DATA05) path and the C2L (DATA06) path (triaxial
cable with connector plate) shown in Figure 3-22.
For Keysight B2220A probe card interface, do not modify the
lines.
C3H
(DATA07)
C3L
(DATA08)
Change the R, L, C values in the lines. The value must be
changed to the R, L, C values of the C3H (DATA07) path and
the C3L (DATA08) path shown in Figure 3-22.
For the connector plate, the coaxial cable with positioner will
be the appropriate path.
For Keysight B2220A probe card interface, the probe card will
be the appropriate path.
