CHAPTER 3. OPERATION 27
Parameter On-screen Label Description/Options
Comparator Mode Mode
Compare The comparator function will test the measure-
ments against the upper and lower limits of the Loaded
BIN, which are configured in BIN Setup.
BIN The comparator function will test the measurements
against the upper and lower limits of all nine bins 1
through 9. The bin number that passes will be indicated.
If it passes multiple bin limits, only the first bin will be
indicated (based on bin numeric order). This option is
useful for component sorting.
Pass/Fail Beep Sound Sound
NG Enables the beep sound when test fails.
GD Enables the beep sound when test passes.
OFF Disables the beep sound regardless of test results.
Comparator Function State COMP
ON Enable the BIN comparator
OFF Disabled
Loaded Bin Loaded BIN
Comparison range (BIN)
Uses limits defined for the specified BIN.
Only available when in Comparison mode.
Table 3.10: BIN Comparator Display Parameters
1. Go to the BIN Display, and select BIN for the Mode parameter.
2. Configure all other parameters as necessary, see Table 3.10.
3. Connect the TLKB1 kelvin clips to the DUT.
Note: If both COMPA and COMPB are enabled, the test will apply to both primary and secondary
measurements. If either of the results fail, the instrument will indicate fail.
When measurements pass, the display will indicate the passing BIN number. If the measurements pass in multiple
bins, the first BIN (in numerical order) is displayed. For example, if the measurements pass in BIN3 and BIN6, the
display will indicate BIN 3. Figure 3.14 shows the display when the measurements pass in BIN 1.
When measurements fail, the display indicates OUT as shown in Figure 3.15.
3.9.3 Compare Pass/Fail Testing
The BIN comparator function can be used to compare the DUT (device under test) measurements against a
specified upper and lower limit for pass/fail (Go/No Go) style testing.
Go to BIN Setup, Section 3.9.5, and configure all the upper and lower limits for the bins to use in the test. Setup all
other parameters as necessary, as described in Table 3.10.
Note: If both COMPA and COMPB are enabled, the test will apply to both primary and secondary
measurements. If either of the results failed, the final result will indicate fail.
