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
.

Residual Inductance of the Shorting Bar
The usual method to compensate the test xture's residual inductance is to let SHORT =0H.
In this method, the measurement result is the relative value of the measured impedance to the
shorting bar's impedance
.The short bar's residual inductance as aresult of its size and shape is
not estimated.
On the other hand, there is adenition method to let SHORT =xH. In this method, the
measurement result is the absolute value of the device's impedance
.The short bar's residual
inductance as aresult of its size and shape is estimated under specic conditions and is used as
areference value
.This method, is useful for devices with values which are close to the short
conditions of the measurement system.
The reference inductance values presented T
able 1-2 and T
able 1-3 were simulated as the
relative dierence to adisk-type 0termination on either the 7 mm or the 3.5 mm connector
.
The measurement of these short bars under other conditions than shown below cannot
reproduce the reference inductance values

Preparation for Use
Introduction
This chapter explains how to install the 16192A. The topics include the following:
Initial inspection.
Connecting the test xture for use.
Repackaging the test xture for shipment.
Measurement error correcting function for each instrument.
Initial Inspection
The parallel electrode SMD test xture 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 parallel electrode SMD test xture 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 16192A for any signs of damage
.
