The Type 1606-A is null type instrument for measuring relatively low impedances. | The Type 1606-A is null-type instrument for measuring relatively low impedances. | ||
Its frequency range is 400 kHz to 60 MHz but that can be expanded with reduced accuracy. | |||
Any oscillator delivering 0.1 to 10 V at the frequency of interest can be used as a generator. | |||
The detector often used is a radio receiver of the proper frequency with adjustable gain and AVC. | |||
The recommended detectors are of the heterodyne or DNT type. Applications for the 1606-A include analysis of antennas, components and networks of relatively low impedance. | |||
