The Agilent/Keysight 41941A is an impedance probe kit that extends the measurement capabilities of the 4194A Impedance/Gain-Phase Analyzer. It enables in-circuit impedance characterization of components, printed circuit patterns, and circuit input/output impedance across a broad frequency range. The kit supports DC biased measurements for evaluating DC parameters in inductors, capacitors, semiconductors, and materials, making it essential for component and circuit characterization in development and production environments.
