Introduction
The QuadTech 1715 LCR Digibridge is an economically priced, easily programmable, micro-processor based passive component tester for fast, precise
impedance measurements. It measures eleven different parameters with a
basic accuracy of 0.2%. The 1715 provides four different test frequencies and
two test voltages for testing flexibility. For remote operation and automated
system applications, the unit comes standard with an RS-232 interface, plus
IEEE-488 and Handler interfaces are available as options.
Description
11 Measurement Parameters:Measure and display two of 11 impedance
parameters simultaneously with a basic accuracy of 0.2%. Test results can also
be shown as Deviation or %Deviation from nominal value.
Test Signal:Four user selectable test frequencies: 100Hz, 120Hz, 1kHz, and
10kHz (9.6kHz), plus two test voltages: 0.25V and 1.0V.
Display:40 x 4 character LCD display for user friendly menu programming
and measured results. Simultaneously displays primary/secondary values and
binning or comparator results.
Setup Storage: Storage of 1 setup with parameter, binning and compare information saved. Auto recall of this setup upon power-up of instrument.
Auto Ranging:For maximum measurement integrity the 1715 automatically
selects the appropriate measurement range and instrument source impedance
(25
Ω, 100Ω, 1kΩ, 10kΩ or 100kΩ), dependent upon the impedance of the
device under test.
Pass/Fail Testing:The 1715 provides a programmable Hi/Lo comparator
function as well as eight sorting bins for categorization of components.
• Storage of 1 Setup
• Automatic Source Impedance Selection
• Keypad Lockout
• Easy Operation
• Programmable Delay Time
Open/Short Zeroing: Reduce the effects of error sources (stray
admittance/residual impedance) between the device under test and the calibrated connection to the measuring instrument.
Interfaces:For remote control, or adaption to a production environment, the
1715 instrument includes an RS-232 interface as standard equipment. Both an
IEEE-488 and a Handler interface are available as optional interfaces.
