Staircase Sweep with Pulsed Bias
Measurement Mode
Other Measurement Characteristics
Measurement Control:
Graph Plot
Display Mode
Single, Repeat, Append, and Stop
SMU Setting Capabilities:
This mode forces swept voltage or current,
and measures DC voltage or current. A
second channel can be programmed to
output a pulsed bias voltage or current. A
third channel can be synchronized with the
primary sweep channel as an additional
voltage or current sweep source.
The data display window can be printed.
Only the X-Y graph can be printed.
Graph Plot File
Limited auto ranging, voltage/current
compliance, power compliance,
automatic sweep abort functions
Arithmetic and Analysis Functions
User Functions
The graph plot can be stored as image data
to clip board or mass storage device.
File type: bmp, gif, png, emf
Up to 20 user-defined functions can be
defined using arithmetic expressions.
Measured data and pre-defined variables
can be used in the computation, and the
results can be displayed on the LCD.

Display Modes
Sampling (Time Domain)
Measurement Mode
X-Y graph, list display, and parameter display
X-Y Graph Display
This mode displays the time sampled
voltage/current data (by SMU) versus
time.
X-axis and up to eight Y-axes
Linear and log scale
Sampling channels: up to 6
For sampling intervals < 2 ms, the number
of sampling channels is 1
Sampling points: 1 to 10,001/
(number of channels)
Overlay Graph Comparison
A graphics plot can be stored and overlaid.
Scale
Real time graph plotting
List Display
Measurement data and calculated user
function data are listed in conjunction
with VAR1 step number or time domain
sampling step number. Up to 20 data sets
can be displayed.
Auto scale and zoom
Marker
Sampling mode: linear
Marker to min/max, interpolation, direct
marker, and marker skip
Sampling interval range:
60 μs to 2 ms, 10 μs resolution
2 ms to 65.535 s, 1 ms resolution
Hold time: -30 ms to -100 μs, 100 μs
resolution
Cursor
Direct cursor
Other Functions
Line
Import/Export files
File type:
Two lines, normal mode, grad mode,
tangent mode, and regression mode
Automatic Analysis Function
On a graphics plot, the markers and lines
can be automatically located using the
auto analysis setup. Parameters can be
automatically determined using automatic
analysis, user function, and read out
functions.
Bias hold time: 0 s
Agilent EasyEXPERT format,
XML-SS format, CSV format
Bias Hold Function
This function is used to keep source output
after measurement. Source modules apply
the specified bias between measurements
in a quick test or application test that
defines some classic test setups, or a
repeat measurement. Also, the source
modules change the output value and the
unused modules are disconnected when
the next measurement is started.
Data Variable Display
Up to 20 user-defined parameters
can be displayed on the graphics
screen.
Current Offset Cancel
Analysis Functions
This function subtracts the offset current
from the current measurement
Up to 20 user-defined analysis func-
tions can be defined using arithmetic
expressions.

measurement data. It is used to compen-
sate the error factor (offset current) caused
by the measurement

path such as the measurement cables,
manipulators, or probe card.
Read Out Functions
These built-in functions are for reading
various values related to the marker,
cursor, or line.
