Connecting Sources to the 5790A
Caution
To avoid dielectric breakdown, use only cables and connectors
that have voltage ratings higher than the voltages you will be
applying.
Connect the source to be measured to the INPUT 1 50
Ω
Type "N" connector or the
INPUT 2 binding posts. INPUT 1 is recommended for input frequencies above 300 kHz.
Cable recommendations are different depending on the INPUT connector used and the
input amplitude and frequency. Table 4-3 gives test lead and INPUT connector
recommendations for different applications.
4-7.
Test Leads and Connectors
Make sure cables and connectors are rated for the voltage that will be used. Either coaxial
or twisted-pair shielded test leads with low-thermal emf connectors are the best choice.
Use short leads to minimize test lead loading. Verify that test lead loading will not effect
your measurement by checking the input impedance information in Table 4-4. Refer to
the heading "Loading" further on in this section for more information.
4-8.
Coaxial Inputs
Warning
The type "N" connector shells are connected to circuit low and
can float to hazardous voltages if the input is connected
incorrectly.
Use coaxial cable and 50
Ω
Type "N" connectors when attaching cables to INPUT 1 and
the WIDEBAND coaxial input connectors. Coaxial cable and connectors minimize the
possibility that radiated electromagnetic energy will disrupt sensitive measurements. Use
the shortest possible length of coaxial cable. Be aware that if you do add a length of
cable, you calibrate the source to the end of the cable.
4-9.
Dual Banana Inputs
You can connect test leads to the 5790A INPUT 2, GUARD, and GROUND binding
posts using banana plugs, spade lugs, or stripped insulated wire. Make all screw-on
connections tight. To avoid errors induced by thermal voltages (thermal emfs), use
connectors and conductors made of copper or materials that generate small thermal emfs
when joined to copper. Avoid using nickel-plated connectors. Optimum results can be
obtained by using Fluke Model 5440A-7002 Low Thermal EMF Test Leads, which are
constructed of well-insulated copper wire and tellurium copper connectors.
