Introduction

You can use the Model 2651A High Power System SourceMeter

Instrument to make basic

measurements from the front panel. In this example, measurements are made on a 10 kΩ resistor.

Similar measurements can be made on any two-terminal device under test (DUT) if appropriate

source values are used.

Equipment needed for this example

To run this example, you will need the following equipment:

• Model 2651A High Power System SourceMeter

Instrument

• Additional cable and connector assemblies as required to make connections to the DUT (for

example, Model 2651A-KIT). See Device connections

(on page 4-1) for a schematic of required

connections.

Device connections

Connections from the Model 2651A High Power System SourceMeter

Instrument to the DUT are

shown in the diagram below. Proper care should be taken to ensure good contact through all

connections.
