Standby Function
Standby function sets any SMUs (except HRSMU with ASU) to specific output values and
compliances before starting or after stopping measurement. Standby function is useful for power
supplies of complicated device (eg. Smart TEG), defect analysis, and so on.
This slide shows the standby and measurement operation in the following setup. This example
assumes that the channel setup is defined in the Standby Channel Definition as follows in the order,
and the output value in the standby state is the same as the output value in the measurement state.
•SMU1: Voltage source, non-standby channel
•SMU2: Voltage Source, standby channel
•SMU3: Voltage Source, standby channel
