Example
reset()
smu.source.func = smu.FUNC_DC_VOLTAGE
smu.source.range = 20
smu.measure.func = smu.FUNC_DC_CURRENT
smu.measure.range = 100e-6
smu.measure.nplc = 0.01
smu.measure.autozero.enable = smu.OFF
smu.source.pulsesweeplinear("VoltLinSweep", 0, 0, 10, 20, 2e-3)
trigger.model.initiate()
Reset the instrument to its default settings.
Set the source function to voltage and the source range to 20 V.
Set up a linear pulse sweep that sweeps from 0 to 10 V in 20 steps with a pulse width of 2 ms and a sweep
count of 1. Name the configuration list that is created for this sweep VoltLinSweep.
Set the measure function to current and the current range to 100 µA.
Start the pulse sweep.
