Application Note Search Engine is
ON! At last count QuadTech had 120 application notes in its
library. Now instead of searching a subject or numerical index of all 120
titles, you can enter keywords into the Application Note Search Engine and find
the notes that apply to your area of interest. Simple as that. Sign up for a
library card at: http://www.quadtech.com/resources/library/app_notes/
and browse to your hearts content.
Ensuring RH Sensor Repeatability with
Capacitance Testing
RH sensors provide yet another interesting
application for the 7000 Series Precision LCR Meter, thermodynamics. A change
in capacitance of an electronic hygrometer indicates a change in relative (or
absolute) humidity. A G-Cap sensor (a capacitor consisting of a film with a
metalized layer deposited on both sides) is installed directly into a
transmitter circuit to eliminate the need for post calibration of the RH
sensor.

insulation tests on the entire reel of cable itself. Immersion in water is used
to check for presence of leakage current indicating defective cable
insulation.
