Our Most Advanced Tester

 
The Precision Premier II, Radiant’s most advanced tester, has the largest envelope in terms of frequency response, voltage range, and accuracy of any ferroelectric tester in the world.

The Precision Premier II tester is capable of executing a single-pass hysteresis loop in 50μs with no interlacing of the data acquisition without any configuration change as our competitor offers.

The Premier II can execute hysteresis loops lasting up to 30 seconds as well as PUND pulse measurements with pulse widths ranging from 1μs up to 1s on capacitors with areas ranging from 0.5μ2 up to multiple square centimeters.

 

Premier II Features Include

 
Output Range ±10V, ±100V, ±200V built-in optional 4kV and 10kV amplifiers
 
16-bit Arbitrary Waveform Generator output
100 points in 100μs direct capture
100 points in 10μs using interlace feature
1000 points in 30 seconds
Pulse Widths down to 1μs and up to 1s

Performance Summary

 

The Premier II uses a 40MHz clock through a down counter resulting in an effective maximum clock rate of 10MHz. The capture rate for the 18bit ADCs in the system is 2MHz.

The driver for the Premier II will be able to interlace multiple loops to generate an effective capture rate of 10MHz on hysteresis and a total loop period of 10μs. This hysteresis measurement is compatible with the loops measured by all of the Precision testers made by Radiant.

The minimum leakage resolution for the Premier II is 2pA. The Premier II has approximately 60fF of parasitic capacitance between the DRIVE and RETURN
