KISweep TSP test script: PulseIMeasureV
TSP project name: KIPulse
TSP test script name: KIPulse
Function:
PulseIMeasureV
PulseIMeasureV(smu, bias, level, ton, toff, points)
Description Performs a specified number of pulse I, measure V cycles:
• Sets the smu to output bias amps and dwell for ton seconds.
• Sets the smu to output level amps and dwell for ton seconds.
• Performs voltage measurement with source at level amps.
• Sets the smu to output bias amps for toff seconds.
• Repeats the above sequence for points pulse-measure cycles.
Parameters
smu, bias, level, ton, toff, points
smu: SourceMeter instrument channel (A or B).
Defaults to SMU A if all parameters are omitted
when function is called.
bias: Bias level in amps.
level: Pulse level in amps.
ton: Pulse on time in seconds.
toff: Pulse off time in seconds.
points: Number of pulse-measure cycles.
Data
Pulsed voltage measurements, current levels, and timestamps are stored in
smuX.nvbuffer1.
Example
PulseIMeasureV(smua, 0.001, 1.0, 20E-3, 40E-3, 10)
SMU A will output 1mA and dwell for 20ms, output 1A and dwell for 20ms, and
then perform a voltage measurement. After the measurement, the output will
return to 1mA and dwell for 40ms. This pulse-measure process will repeat 9 more
times.
