The HP/Agilent 16089D is a four-terminal alligator clip lead set engineered for precision impedance and LCR measurements on odd-shaped or unconventional components that standard test fixtures cannot accommodate. The set comprises four color-coded alligator clips (Hpot, Hcur, Lpot, Lcur) with “V” markers for correct DUT connection, paired with 4-terminal-pair BNC connectors that interface directly with compatible impedance analyzers and LCR meters.
– Technical Specifications
• Frequency Range: 5 Hz to 100 kHz
• DC Bias Range: −35 V to +35 V
• Maximum Voltage: ±42 V peak (AC + DC combined)
• Cable Length: 0.94 m (connector to clip tip)
• Terminal Compatibility: 5 mm diameter or less
• Operating Temperature: 0 °C to 55 °C
• Connector Type: 4-terminal-pair BNC
– Key Features
• Four alligator clips with high and low potential and current terminal designations enable true four-terminal-pair measurements, minimizing lead impedance effects at measurement frequencies up to 100 kHz.
• Color coding and voltage markers streamline test setup and reduce connection errors during device characterization.
• Approximately 0.94 m lead length provides adequate reach for bench-top measurement configurations.
• Supports both DC bias and AC excitation within specified voltage limits.
– Typical Applications
Direct measurement of capacitors, inductors, resistors, and complex impedances without requiring component-specific fixtures. Ideal for prototype characterization, quality assurance testing, and field measurements where standard test fixtures are impractical.
– Compatibility & Integration
Works with Agilent 4192A, 4194A (Impedance Mode), 4263B, 4278A, 4284A, 4285A, 4288A, 4294A, Keysight E4980A, E4981A (limited frequency range), and Agilent 4268A. Open and short compensations are recommended prior to measurements for optimal accuracy.
