Safety Summary
The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation,
service
,and repair of this instrument. F
ailure to comply with these precautions or with specic
W
ARNINGS
given elsewhere in this manual violates safety standards of design, manufacture,
and intended use of the instrument.
The A
gilent T
echnologies assumes no liability for the customer's failure to comply with these
requirements
.
DO NOT Operate In An Explosive Atmosphere
Do not operate the instrument in the presence of ammable gasses or fumes
.Operation of any
electrical instrument in such an environment constitutes asafety hazard.
K
eep A
way From Live Circuits
Operating personnel must not remove instrument covers
. Component replacement and internal
adjustments must be made by qualied maintenance personnel. Do not replace components
with the power cable connected. Under certain conditions
, dangerous voltages may exist even
with the power cable removed. T
oavoid injuries
,always disconnect power and discharge
circuits before touching them.
DO NOT Service Or A
djust Alone
Do not attempt internal service or adjustment unless another person, capable of rendering rst
aid and resuscitation, is present.
DO NOT Substitute P
arts Or Modify Instrument
Because of the danger of introducing additional hazards
,do not substitute parts or perform
unauthorized modications to the instrument. Return the instrument to aAgilent T
echnologies
Sales and Service Oce for service and repair to ensure the safety features are maintained.
Dangerous Procedure Warnings
Warning
s, such as the example below
,precede potentially dangerous procedures throughout
this manual. Instructions contained in the warnings must be followed.
Warning
Dangerous voltages
,capable of causing death, are present in this
instrument. Use extreme caution when handling, testing, and adjusting
this instrument.
The voltage levels found in this test xture when used with the intended instruments do not
warrant more than normal safety precautions for operator safety
.
iv

Operating Precaution
Do not exceed the operating input power, voltage, and current level and signal type
appropriate for the instrument being used, refer to your instrument's operation manual.
Caution
Electrostatic discharge (
esd
)candamage the highly sensitive microcircuits in
your instrument. ESD damage is most likely to occur as the test xtures are
being connected or disconnected. Protect them from ESD damage by wearing a
grounding strap that provides ahigh resistance path to ground. Alternatively
,
ground yourself to discharge any static charge built-up by touching the
outer shell of any grounded instrument chassis before touching the test port
connectors
.
Never touch the test clip contacts
.
Use awork station equipped with an anti-static work surface
.

Preparation for Use
Introduction
This chapter explains how to install the 16194A.The topics include the following:
Initial inspection.
Exchanging the device holder
Repackaging the test xture for shipment.
Initial Inspection
The 16194A has been carefully inspected before being shipped from the factory
.It should be in
perfect physical condition, no scratches
,dents or the like
.It should also be in perfect electrical
condition. V
erify this by carefully performing an incoming inspection to check the 16194A
set for signs of physical damage and missing contents
.If any discrepancy is found, notify the
carrier and Agilent T
echnologies.Y
our Agilent T
echnologies sales oce will arrange for repair
and replacement without waiting for the claim to be settled.
Inspect the shipping container for damage
.Keep the shipping materials until the inspection is
completed.
V
erify that the shipping container contains everything shown in Figure 2-1 and listed in
T
able 2-1.
Inspect the exterior of the 16194A for any signs of damage
.

2-2 Preparation for Use

Exchanging the device holder
The 16194A can hold both leaded devices and surface mount devices by exchanging the device
holder
.The exchanging procedure is as follows
.
1. Remove the ground plate.
2. When measuring asurface mount device, attach the knob on the device holder as shown in
Figure 2-2.
3. Select the device holder suitable for the device type
. Loosen its knob and insert it into the
arm.
4. Set the ground plate.
Figure 2-2. Exchanging the Device Holder
Preparation for Use 2-3

Repackaging the Test Fixture for Shipment
If shipment to an Agilent T
echnologies service center is required, each test xture should be
repackaged using the original factory packaging materials.
If this material is not available
, comparable packaging materials may be used. Wrap the 16194A
in heavy paper and pack in anti-static plastic packing material. Use sucient shock absorbing
material on all sides of the 16194A to provide a thick, rm cushion and to prevent movement.
Seal the shipping container securely and mark it
FRAGILE
.

Operation
Introduction
This chapter describes how to perform error compensation and how to measure the device with
the 16194A. The topics include the following.
Operating ow
Connecting the test xture for use
Placing shorting device
, load device
,or device under test
Setting the open condition
Operating Flow
The following shows typical operating procedure
.Before performing ameasurement, it is
necessary to compensate for the residual error of the xture
. The error compensation functions
are dierent for each instrument. F
or procedure on how to perform each error compensation,
see the Operation Manual supplied with your analyzer
.
1. P
erform calibration at the measurement terminal of your analyzer
,and connect the 16194A.
2. P
erform electrical length compensation(Fixture Select/Port Extension).
3. P
erform SHORT compensation.
F
or both surface mount device and leaded device measurements
,use the shorting device
.
4. P
erform LO
AD compensation, if necessary
.
For both surface mount device and leaded device measurements
,use the 50 chip resistor
as a LOAD device
.The reference value for LO
AD compensation is R=50 /L=0 H.
5. P
erform OPEN compensation.
6. Measure the device under test.
Note
In case of using the 4291B with option 013/014 High T
emperature Test Head,
the recommended error compensation is as follows
.
