3-30 Pulse Current Measurements
Pulse current measurements
The following command sequence will return the average of 10 peak pulse current
measurements:
Battery channel (#1)
DISP:CHAN 1 ‘ Sets active channel - battery.
SENS:CURR:RANG 5 ‘ Select 5A
range.
VOLT 15 ‘ Set output voltage to 15V.
CURR 0.75 ‘ Set current limit to 750mA.
OUTP ON ‘ Turn output on.
SENS:PCUR:SYNC ON ‘ Enable trigger synchronization.
SENS:PCUR:AVER 10 ‘ Set average count to 10.
SENS:PCUR:SYNC:TLEV:ONE 0.1 ‘
Set trigger level to 100mA for 1A trigger
level range.
SENS:PCUR:SYNC:TLEV:RANG 0.5 ‘ Select th
e 1A trigger level range.
SENS:PCUR:TIME:AUTO ‘ Set integration times automatically.
SENS:PCUR:MODE HIGH ‘ Configure to measure peak pulse.
SENS:FUNC “PCUR” ‘ Select pulse current function.
READ? ‘ Trigger 10 measurement conversions and
‘ return the average of those 10 conver-
‘ sions. The average of the 10 conversions
‘ is displayed on the front panel. Each of
‘ the ten conversion syncs to the rising
‘ edge.
Charger channel (#2)
DISP:CHAN 2 ‘ Sets active channel - charger.

SOUR2:VOLT 15 ‘ Set output voltage to 15V.
SOUR2:CURR 0.75 ‘ Set current limit to 750mA.
OUTP2 ON ‘ Turn output on.
SENS2:PCUR:SYNC ON ‘ Enable trigger synchronization.
SENS2:PCUR:AVER 10 ‘ Set average count to 10.
SENS2:PCUR:SYNC:TLEV 0.1 ‘ Set trigger level to 100mA.
SENS2:PCUR:TIME:HIGH 600e-3 ‘ Set integration high time to 600ms.
SENS2:PCUR:SYNC:DEL 50e-3 ‘ Set trigger delay to 50msec.
SENS2:PCUR:MODE HIGH ‘ Configure to measure peak pulse (trigger
‘ on rising edge).
SENS2:FUNC “PCUR” ‘ Select pulse current function.
READ2? ‘ Trigger 10 measurement conversions and
‘ return the average of those 10 conver-
‘ sions. The average of the 10 conversions
‘ is displayed on the front panel. Each of
‘ the ten conversion syncs to the rising
‘ edge.
