Introduction
This section is broken into two examples:
Example 1 demonstrates how to generate a basic linear voltage sweep with the Model 2290-5 to
reverse bias a high voltage diode and make leakage current measurements at each point of the
sweep.
Example 2 demonstrates basic interaction of the Model 2290-5 high voltage power supply with a
Model 263xB System SourceMeter. The Model 2290-5 is used to generate a basic linear voltage
sweep across the diode and the Model 263xB is used to make a leakage current measurement on the
diode.

Linear voltage sweep and current measurements with Model 2990-5
Equipment needed:
• 1 high-voltage diode enclosed in a safe test fixture
• 1 Model 2290-5 high voltage power supply
• 1 GPIB cable to connect the Model 2290-5 to a computer with a GPIB interface
• Appropriate cabling to connect the Model 2290-5 to the test fixture
