V-Source operating boundaries
Model 2601/2602 V-Source operating boundaries
Figure 8-8 shows the operating boundaries for the V-Source. Only the first
quadrant of operation is covered. Operation in the other three quadrants is similar.
Figure 8-8A shows the output characteristics for the V-Source. As shown, the
Model 2601/2602 SourceMeter can output up to 6.06V at 3A, or 40.4V at 1A. Note
that when sourcing more than 6.06V, current is limited to 1A.
Figure 8-8B shows the limit lines for the V-Source. The voltage source limit line
represents the maximum source value possible for the presently selected voltage
source range. For example, if on the 6V source range, the voltage source limit line
is at 6.3V. The current compliance limit line represents the actual compliance in
effect. See “
Compliance limit” earlier in this section. These limit lines are bound-
aries that represent the operating limits of the SourceMeter for this quadrant of
operation. The operating point can be anywhere inside (or on) these limit lines.
The limit line boundaries for the other quadrants are similar.
