Agilent 86100 Series 1.85 mm Connector Reference Manual Introduction The 1.85 mm connectors are used with many of the Agilent 86100 series plug- in modules and remote heads. This manual will show you how to properly con- nect, disconnect, and maintain 1.85 mm adapter/connectors. CAUTION Failure to follow the guidelines for proper connector handling and avoiding electrostatic discharge (ESD) can result in severe damage to the product that will not be covered under warranty. In some cases, the 1.85 mm connector is an integral part of the electrical sampler device. Therefore, by using improper cleaning and handling techniques, you risk expensive instrument repairs.

The best techniques for maintaining the integrity of your Agilent 1.85mm con- nector include routine visual inspection, cleaning, and proper connection techniques. If you fail to detect and remove dirt or metallic particles on a mat- ing plane surface, you run the risk of degrading repeatability and accuracy. You also risk damage to any connector mated to it. Improper connections, resulting from pin depth values being out of the typical limits (see "Pin Depth" on page 9) or from poor connection techniques, can also damage these devices. 3 Electrostatic Discharge Information CAUTION Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic components. All work on electronic assemblies should be performed at a static-safe workstation. The following suggestions may help reduce ESD (electrostatic discharge) damage that occurs during testing and servicing operations:
