14. Remove the 270 pF verification capacitor, and plug the 1 nF
verification capacitor into the
HI
and
LO
banana plug connectors of the
NI 4072.
15. Call
niDMM_ConfigureMeasurement
with the following
parameters:
•
Function
=
NIDMM_VAL_CAPACITANCE
•
Range
=
1e-9
•
Resolution
=
100e-15
16. Set the number of averages of the NI 4072 to
20
by calling
niDMM_SetAttributeViInt32
with the following parameters:
•
Attribute_ID
=
NIDMM_ATTR_LC_NUMBER_MEAS_TO_AVERAGE
•
Attribute_Value
=
20
Note
If you use capacitance verification values that differ from the values listed in
Table 12, verify that each measurement falls between the tolerances listed in Table 24.
The tolerances shown in Table 24 correspond to the NI 4072 accuracy specifications.
17. Call
niDMM_Read
. Verify that this measurement falls between the
tolerances listed in Table 24.
18. Call
niDMM_ConfigureMeasurement
with the following
parameters:
•
Function
=
NIDMM_VAL_CAPACITANCE
•
Range
=
10e-9
•
Resolution
=
1e-12
19. Set the number of averages of the NI 4072 to
20
by calling
niDMM_SetAttributeViInt32
with the following parameters:
•
Attribute_ID
=
NIDMM_ATTR_LC_NUMBER_MEAS_TO_AVERAGE
•
Attribute_Value
=
20
Note
If you use capacitance verification values that differ from the values listed in
Table 12, verify that each measurement falls between the tolerances listed in Table 24.
The tolerances shown in Table 24 correspond to the NI 4072 accuracy specifications.
20. Call
niDMM_Read
. Verify that this measurement falls between the
tolerances listed in Table 24.
21. Remove the verification capacitor, and plug into the
HI
and
LO
banana
plug connectors of the NI 4072 the next capacitor to be verified,
according to Table 12.
