Installation
Connecting a DUT
Connections 1. Attach the banana to triaxial adapter to the B2961A/B2962A source/measure
terminals. See Figure 3-7. If there is some space as “Bad connection”, the
contact is not enough.
2. Connect the triaxial cables between the adapter and the 16442B. Figure 3-9
shows a connection example.
3. Connect the DUT on the 16442B wiring panel by using the 16442B’s furnished
accessories, socket module, blank board, and wire suitable for the DUT.
Figure 3-10 shows the connection example for the connections of Figure 3-9.
For 2-wire connections, connect the SMU 1 Force terminal to a DUT terminal,
and connect the SMU 2 Force terminal to the other DUT terminal.
For 4-wire connections, connect the SMU 1 Force and Sense terminals to a DUT
terminal. And connect the SMU 3 Sense and Guard terminals to the other DUT
terminal if the adapter’s Low Force/Low Sense connector is connected to the
SMU 3 Sense connector. The Low Force signal appears on the Guard terminal.
