To maintain adequate measurement performance, keep the elec-
trodes and the short plate in good condition. Contaminants and 
abrasion on these parts considerably affect measurement results, 
especially for low value measurements. Periodic fixture cleaning and 
part replacement is recommended to avoid deterioration of measure-
ment performance. The 16196x fixtures are designed with simplicity 
in mind, so that an operator can easily replace parts. Spare parts, 
which are likely to be abraded, are supplied with the 16196U 
Maintenance Kit.
16196U Maintenance Kit
 Opt. 16196U-010: Upper electrode, 5 piece set (common to 
16196A/B/C models)
 Opt. 16196U-200: Short plate for 0402 (inch)/1005 (mm) size, 5 
piece set (for 16196B)
 Opt. 16196U-210: Lower electrode, 5 piece set (for 16196B)
Compensation and Measurement: First of all, install the appropriate 
insulator assembly into the fixture. Then, perform compensation. 
Open and short compensations are recommended in combination 
with the electrical length compensation before measurement. The 
fixture’s electrical length must be entered into the electrical length 
compensation function of the measurement instrument first. Next, 
open compensation is performed by placing the furnished open plate 
on top of the insulator assembly. Short compensation is performed 
by placing the furnished shorting plate on top of the insulator 
assembly. After performing open and short compensations in combi-
nation with the electrical length compensation, the DUT is inserted 
into the test fixture. Once the measurement of the DUT is complete, 
remove the DUT from the fixture, by using the furnished push ring. 
Refer to the 16196A figures to see how compensation and measure-
ment is performed.
