5.2 Correct connection of DUT
There are 4 pairs of test terminal: Hcur, Hpot, Lpot and corresponding shielding
terminal of each terminal.
Each terminal contains shielding layer whose function is to reduce the influence of
the ground stray capacitance and the interference of the electromagnetic field. In
the process of testing, Hcur, Hpot and Lpot, Lcur should be connected with DUT
lead to form a complete 4-terminal measurement, thus reducing the effect of the
lead and the connection points on the test results (especially the dissipation
measurement). When testing low-ohm components, Hpot, Lpot should be
connected to the lead terminal so as to avoid the impedance being added to the
lead impedance and the connection principle is that the Hpot and Lpot test should
be the actual existed voltage on DUT.
In other words, before connecting to DUT, it is not recommended to connect Hcur,
Hpot with Lpot, Lcur, for doing this will increase test error.
If the connection point and the lead resistance R lead are far weaker than the
tested impedance (for example: R
lead
<Z
x
/1000, the accuracy error is required to
be less than 0.1%), before connecting to DUT, it is recommended to connect Hcur,
Hpot and Lpot, Lcur (Two terminal test).
In the test with high accuracy requirement, using Kelvin test fixture (standard
accessory) will gain better results than using test leads. When Kelvin test lead is
