Abstract: A device with low dielectric absorption includes a printed circuit board (PCB), a component connection area including a first conductor layered on a top surface of the component connection area and a second conductor layered on a bottom surface of the component connection area, an aperture surrounding the component connection area, a low-leakage component connecting the component connection area to the PCB across the aperture, and a guard composed of a third conductor at least substantially surrounding the aperture on a top surface of the PCB and a fourth conductor at least substantially surrounding the aperture on a bottom surface of the PCB.

Abstract: An impedance sourcing circuit for a measurement device configured to measure a device under test (DUT) and method are disclosed. The impedance sourcing circuit includes a voltage/current source. An electrically controlled variable resistance having a control input is configured to adjust the variable resistance is coupled to the DUT. A loop gain controller is coupled to the control input of the electrically controlled variable resistance. The loop gain controller is configured to drive the control input of the electrically controlled variable resistance to adjust the variable resistance to generally match the impedance of the DUT. The impedance sourcing circuit may also include a voltage detector configured to detect a voltage across the DUT and a voltage reference. The loop gain controller may be configured to drive the control input of the electrically controlled variable resistance based on the voltage detected across the DUT and the voltage reference.

Abstract: An RF testing method and system by which a DC measurement pathway can also act like a properly terminated RF pathway. Achieving this requires that the output HI, LO, and Sense HI conductors are terminated in a frequency selective manner such that the terminations do not affect the SMU DC measurements. Once all SMU input/output impedances are controlled, as well as properly terminated to eliminate reflections, the high-speed devices will no longer oscillate during device testing, so long as the instruments maintain a high isolation from instrument-to-instrument (separate instruments are used on the gate and drain, or on the input and output of the device). The output of HI, LO and Sense HI conductors are coupled to various nodes of the DUT via three triaxial cables, the outer shieldings of which are coupled to each other and to an SMU ground.
