E Technical Information
This chapter provides technical information on the operating principles of the
E4981A and the basic principles of capacitance measurement.
Measurement Principle
This section explains the underlying principle of how the E4981A is used to
measure the impedance of a DUT.
Figure E-1 Circuit model of impedance measurement
Figure E-1 illustrates the circuit model of impedance measurement using the
E4981A. Vs is the measurement power supply voltage, and Rs is the output
resistance of the E4981A. When voltage applied to a DUT is V and current
flowing through the DUT is I, impedance Z is expressed by the equation Z = V/I.
Z consists of a real part and an imaginary part. Figure E-2 shows the vector
diagram of impedance.
