CAUTION
The maximum voltage which can be applied to the test terminals of the
3511-50 unit is 40 V DC. If a DC voltage greater than this is applied
continuously, the unit may be damaged.
5.2 Supplying DC Bias
Supplying DC bias means that a DC voltage is supplied as a bias to a
sample for test whose characteristics are voltage dependent, such as an
electrolytic capacitor or a ceramic capacitor.
Further, a DC current can be supplied as a bias to a sample for test whose
characteristics are current dependent, such as a choke coil.
Since the 3511-50 unit has no DC bias input terminals, a DC bias must be
supplied in the manner described in the following sections.
