Performance Verification 18-13
8. Repeat the procedure for negative source currents with the same magnitudes as those
listed in Table 18-3.
20pA-2µA range accuracy
1. Connect the voltage calibrator and Model 5156 Electrometer Calibration Standard to
Model 6514 INPUT jack, as shown in Figure 18-3. Initially make connections to the
100GΩ resistor in the calibration standard.
2. Select the DC amps function on Model 6514, and set the calibrator to output DC voltage.
3. Set Model 6514 to the 20pA range.
4. With zero check enabled, zero correct the instrument, then disable zero check.
5. Set the calibrator voltage to 0.0000V, and make sure the output is turned on.
6. Enable Model 6514 REL mode. Leave REL enabled for the remainder of the test.
