Model 2611/2612 V-Source operating boundaries
Figure 8-9 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 8-9A shows the output characteristics for the V-Source. As shown, the
Model 2611/2612 SourceMeter can output up to 20.2V at 1.5A, or 202V at
100mA. Note that when sourcing more than 20.2V, current is limited to 100mA.
Figure 8-9B 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 20V source range, the voltage source limit
line is at 20.2V. The current compliance limit line represents the actual compli
-
ance in effect. See “Compliance limit” earlier in this section. These limit lines are
boundaries that represent the operating limits of the SourceMeter for this quad-
rant of operation. The operating point can be anywhere inside (or on) these limit
lines. The limit line boundaries for the other quadrants are similar.
