Charge Injection
Table 2-2
SCPI commands - ACAL, Front Autozero, Autozero, LSYNC, and Low Charge Injection
Commands Description Default
For ACAL:
:CALibration CALibration Subsystem:
:UNPRotected
:ACALibration ACAL:
:INITiate Prepare 2182 for ACAL.
:STEP1 Perform full ACAL (100V and 10mV).
:STEP2 Perform low level ACAL (10mV only).
:DONE Exit ACAL (see Note).
:TEMPerature? Read the internal temperature (in °C) at the time
of the last ACAL.
:SENSe SENSe Subsystem:
:TEMPerature
:RTEMperature? Measure the present internal temperature (in ˚C).
For Front Autozero:
:SYSTem SYSTem Subsystem:
:FAZero [state] <b> Enable or disable Front Autozero. ON
For Autozero:
:SYSTem SYSTem Subsystem:
:AZERo [state] <b> Enable or disable Autozero. ON
For LYSNC:
:SYSTem SYSTem Subsystem:
:LSYNc [state] <b> Enable or disable line cycle synchronization. OFF
For Low Charge Injection:
:SENSe:VOLTage SENSe Subsystem:
:CHANnel2
:LQMode <b> Enable or disable Low Charge Injection Mode for
Channel 2 (see “Pumpout current (low charge injection
mode)” for details).
OFF
Note: After sending :DONE, the 2182 goes into the idle state. An INITiate command is
needed to trigger readings (see Program Example 1).
