– Compatibility & Integration
The 16200B operates with Keysight LCR meters and impedance analyzers including the E4982A, E4990A (with Option E4990A-120), E4991B, and E5061B series. It accepts test fixtures including the 16192A, 16194A, 16196A/B/C/D, 16197A, 16092A, 16191A, 16193A, and 16093A/B. Open, short, and load calibrations at the 7 mm test port optimize measurement accuracy. Short bars and 51 Ω SMD resistors are available for calibration reference standards.
