a) Select the measurement pair softkey in the upper left corner, to open the selec-
tion editor.
b) Select the parameters "Lp-Rp" (parallel inductance, parallel resistance).
c) Confirm your selection.
d) Repeat the steps to select the second parameters, e.g. select "Lp-Q" (parallel
inductance, quality factor).
4. To set the current bias value:
a) Press the [Bias Level] key.
b) Enter a current value using the keypad on the screen.
5. Confirm with
.
6. Set up the measurement of the inductance as described, e.g. in
7. To activate the current bias, press the [Bias Enable] key.
The lighting [Bias Enable] key indicates that bias is active.
Deactivating current bias
To turn off current bias:
1. Press the [Bias Enable] key.
The unlit [Bias Enable] key indicates that current bias is deactivated.
The R&S
LCX starts the discharging process.
2.
NOTICE!
To avoid electrical shock caused by residual current after measuring an
inductance with current bias, it is necessary to discharge the inductor.
Make sure that you have unloaded the component sample before removing it from
the test fixture.
Wait for the inductor or coil to discharge before disconnecting.
3. Remove the component sample.
