The Keysight 16197A test fixture is designed for impedance evaluations of bottom electrode SMDs. It achieves stable frequency characteristics up to 3 GHz and provides highly repeatable measurements. This test fixture supports various SMD sizes, as small as 1005 (mm)/0402 (inch) and as large as 3225 (mm)/1210 (inch). Accommodation of the 0603 (mm)/0201 (inch) size is available with option 001

The 16197A uses a device guide and an electrode plate for measuring to various sizes of bottom-electrode SMDs.
