Interstrip resistance measurement

In ATLAS SCT community two methods of interstrip resistance measurements are used: a) measuring the resistance between two strips and comparing it with a separately measured strip-to bias-rail resistance and b) applying DC voltage to one strip and measuring the current flowing to another strip. The method a) will further be referred to as Resistance Method and method b) as Induced Current Method. In the latter the current can be measured either directly or by a voltage drop on the bias resistor. All three techniques are analyzed in this Note and illustrated by measurements with the same sensor.
