Entering MUT Dimensions

You must enter the MUT dimensions before you can perform measurement. Use a micrometer or calipers to measure the outer (shown as c in the below figure) and inner (shown as b in the below figure) diameters and height (shown as h in the below figure).

The 16454A test fixture imposes restrictions on the outer and inner diameters and height of the MUT, as shown in below table.

Frequency range

Maximum DC bias current

Dielectric material size

1 M to 1 GHz

± 100 mA

b ≥ ɸ 3.1 mm

c ≤ ɸ 20.0 mm

h ≤ 8.5 mm

  1. Press Meas > Material Dimension > Height > enter the height value, e.g. 8.5 > k/m.

  2. Press Meas > Material Dimension > Inner Diameter > enter the inner diameter value, e.g. 3.1 > k/m.

  3. Press Meas > Material Dimension > Outer Diameter > enter the height, e.g. 20 > k/m.
