Component, semiconductor and equipment manufacturers are driven today by the mobile, PC, consumer electronics and automotive component markets. To accurately evaluate high-quality capacitors, inductors, transformers, semiconductors, and electromechanical devices for those markets, manufacturers require an LCR metre that offers both fast and highly accurate measurements. The E4980A offers high accuracy (0.05 % basic accuracy) and high speed (5.6 ms at 1 MHz), improves test throughput and increases production yields, allowing manufacturers to make lower-cost devices. And the metre’s support for LAN, USB, and GPIB, as well as powerful test signal support, makes it easier to manage multiple instrument setups and improves data collection time.
Additional features built into the E4980A include support for 40 A DC bias current source for conducting highly accurate and efficient DC current-biased inductance measurements.
Additionally, a DC resistance/voltage/current measurement readout performs simultaneous evaluations of DC characteristics, and a 10 V DC source output port for evaluating three-terminal devices.
