Lower measurement variation for better repeatability

The advanced techniques in the E4982A analog-circuit also provides even lower measurement variation than 4287A. By taking the lower measurement variation into consideration along with the measurement speed, the practical measurement speed at the equivalent measurement variation versus 4287A can drastically improve the measurement speed. This means that even smaller inductance can be measured while maximizing the manufacturing throughput.

Excellent Accuracy & Impedance Range

More accurate measurements over wider impedance range

The E4982A employs the RF-IV measurement method that measures voltage and current at device under test (DUT). The

E4982A enables more accurate measurement over wide impedance range than that of network analyzer and also even

4287A, for a very small inductance on the order of a few nH, as an advantage.

Maximizing Throughput & Quality in Manufacturing

Accurate automated testing by calibaration with different reference values

It is very important to eliminate complicated error elements caused by the use of test fixtures and cables that extend the test head of the E4982A. This is especially true for measurements that use an automated component handler. Accurate measurements, which correlate well with results obtained from manual testing, can be achieved at the measurement plane of a test fixture by performing open/short/load calibration with a “working” load standard.

Since different calibration standard reference values can be independently set at each list measurement frequency, multi-frequency measurements can be made accurately with this reliable calibration function.

Calibration standard data setup display

Different calibration reference values can independently be set at each list measurement frequency

Contact check using the Rdc measurement function

Contact failure between a DUT and the measurement plane of an automatic component handler is a factor for bin sorting error in production line testing. Contact check using the built-in DC resistance measurement function improves the accuracy and efficiency of bin sorting.

Rdc measurement

07 | Keysight | E4982A LCR Meter 1 MHz to 300 MHz/500 MHz/1 GHz/3 GHz - Brochure

Interfacing with an automated component handler

The measurement plane can be extended from the front panel of the instrument to the measurement stage with the 1 m test cable and the small size test head. It is possible to extend the test cable an additional meter with a 1 m extension cable (option 020). Note that the measurement accuracy is specified at the test head.

In addition, connection to an external computer or an automated component handler can be accomplished via the GPIB/LAN/USB interface and the opto-isolated handler interface. The LAN interface enables network communication, and greatly empowers massive data transfer to a remote computer.

Multi-function comparator

The comparator setup display is formatted as a table. Each row represents a bin number, and each column represents the sorting conditions for each bin. When all sorting conditions set for a bin are satisfied, the judgment result is sorted to the bin. There are thirteen bins, with four limit values for each bin. Conditions such as frequency and measurement parameters can be set independently in each column, enabling the E4982A to meet various sorting needs, including different parameters at different measurement frequencies.

Statistical analysis functions

The E4982A is equipped with functions to statistically analyze data. These functions improve the efficiency of the data acquisition required in quality control.

The statistical analysis function calculates the following statistical parameters for as many as 1,000,000,000 measurement points. Original measurement results for the statistical analysis function can be obtained via GPIB/

LAN/USB interface.

Data storage and transfer

The E4982A built-in data storage includes a hard disk drive and USB ports. These powerful storage devices permit to save and recall your measurement setup parameters (instrument state) and measurement data.

In addition, measurement setup parameters and data can be transferred between the E4982A and an external computer via GPIB/LAN/USB interface.

For R&D & Quality Assurance

Accurate impedance measurement up to

3 GHz

Characterization of components at operating frequencies in excess of 2 GHz is becoming common due to the development and evaluation of RF SMD inductors used in wireless communication equipment. The E4982A employs the RF I-V measurement method. The E4982A enables accurate measurement over an impedance range much wider than network analyzers (reflection coefficient method) while the upper frequency is limited for the autobalancing bridge instruments.

Improved accuracy for high Q (low loss) measurements

For manual measurements, a low-loss capacitor as a phase calibration standard, in addition to open/short/load calibration, improves the accuracy of Q measurements as shown. In addition to calibration, electrical length compensation for a fixture with open/short compensation fully correct s the measurement error which is caused by the use of a test fixture. These functions realize high absolute measurement accuracy at the measurement plane, which in turn empowers accurate measurement of working standards.
