A precision instrument for I-V characterization
The tightly-coupled nature of a SourceMeter instrument provides many advantages over separate instruments. The ability to fit a source and a meter in a single half-rack enclosure saves valuable rack space and simplifies the remote programming interface.
Highlights
- A precision instrument used for I-V characterization on a wide variety of devices and materials
- An SMU can source current or source voltage
- An SMU can measure both current and voltage
Greatly accelerate throughput with built-in voltage/current sweep capabilities
SourceMeter instruments provide sweep solutions that greatly accelerate testing with automation hooks for additional throughput improvement. This is true whether you are performing sweeps on transistors, simply verifying connector integrity, characterizing device performance, or virtually any DC volt-amp characteristic with high precision.
Highlights
- Linear staircase sweeps
- Logarithmic staircase sweeps
- Custom Sweeps
Integrate with switching systems for fast, multipoint testing
The instruments in the SourceMeter family offer wide versatility, so they make great solutions for a variety of applications in many industries. For seamless integration in fast multipoint testing applications, combine a SourceMeter instrument with a Keithley switch system.
