Source-Measure Concepts 5-3
Maximum compliance values
The maximum compliance values for the measurement ranges are summarized in Table 5-1.
Compliance examples
When the SourceMeter goes into real compliance, the “Cmpl” label for the compliance dis-
play will flash. When the SourceMeter goes into range compliance, the units label (“mA”) will
instead flash. For the following examples, labels in boldface indicate that they are flashing.
Measurement Range: 100mA
Compliance Setting: Cmpl: 075.000 mA Flashing “Cmpl” indicates that
real compliance has occurred.
The output is clamped at 75mA.
Measurement Range: 10mA
Compliance Setting: Cmpl: 075.000 mA Flashing “mA” indicates that
range compliance has occurred.
The output is clamped at 10.5mA.
