Introduction
The 4225-RPM Remote Amplifier/Switch Module is an accessory for the 4225-PMU UltraFast Pulse
Measure Unit that allows you:
• To extend the current measurement ranges of the PMU to the 100 nA range.
• To switch between the instruments without changing cables.
This section provides an example of how to use the 4225-RPM to switch the SMU, CVU, and
4225-PMU and make dc I-V, C-V, and pulsed I-V measurements to a single device without having to
reconnect the device between measurements.
For this example, you:
• Make connections from two SMUs, one CVU, and the two-channel PMU to the inputs of two
4225-RPMs.
• Make connections from the outputs of the two 4225-RPMs to a diode.
• Generate dc I-V, C-V, and pulsed I-V measurements.
Equipment required
• One 4200A-SCS with the following instruments:
▪ Two 4200-SMUs, 4201-SMUs, 4210-SMUs, or 4211-SMUs
▪ Two 4200-PAs
▪ One 4210-CVU or 4215-CVU
▪ One 4225-PMU
▪ Two 4225-RPMs
• Four 4200-TRX-2 or 4200-MTRX-2 triaxial cables (supplied with SMU)
• Four CA-447A SMA cables (supplied with CVU)
