Output Sequence
Output Sequence
When you perform measurements or force stress, or when you use the standby
function, you can specify an output sequence for the source channels.
The 4155B/4156B has two output sequence modes:
• sequential mode
The source channels output in the order that you specify in the OUTPUT
SEQUENCE table on the MEASURE: OUTPUT SEQUENCE screen. The
source outputs are stopped in the opposite order.
You can set the output sequence to prevent damage to DUTs.
• simultaneous mode (for sampling measurements only)
All the source channels output simultaneously. The source outputs are stopped in
the opposite order that you specify in the OUTPUT SEQUENCE table on the
MEASURE: OUTPUT SEQUENCE screen.
For a stress sequence example, see Figure 3-1.
For a standby sequence example, see Figure 3-2.
