SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
FRONT PANEL INTERFACE: 2-line vacuum fluorescent display (VFD) with keypad and rotary knob.
Display:
• Show error messages and user defined messages
• Display source and limit settings
• Show current and voltage measurements
• View measurements stored in non-volatile reading buffers
Keypad Operations:
• Change host interface settings
• Save and restore instrument setups
• Load and run factory and user defined test scripts (i.e. sequences) that prompt for input and
send results to the display
• Store measurements into non-volatile reading buffers
PROGRAMMING: Embedded Test Script Processor (TSP) accessible from any host interface. Responds
to individual instrument control commands. Responds to high-speed test scripts comprised of
instrument control commands and Test Script Language (TSL) statements (e.g. branching, looping,
math, etc.). Able to execute high-speed test scripts stored in memory without host intervention.
Minimum Memory Available: 3 Mbytes (approximately 50,000 lines of TSL code).
Test Script Builder: Integrated Development Environment for building, running, and managing
TSP scripts. Includes an Instrument Console for communicating with any TSP enabled instru-
ment in an interactive manner. Requires:
• VISA (NI-VISA included on CD)
• Microsoft .NET Framework (included on CD)
• Keithley I/O Layer (included on CD)
• Pentium III 800MHz or faster personal computer
• Microsoft Windows 98, NT, 2000, or XP
Drivers: IVI/VISA drivers for VB, VC/C++, LabVIEW, TestPoint, and LabWindows/CVI
READING BUFFERS: Non-volatile storage area(s) reserved for measurement data. Reading buffers are
arrays of measurement elements. Each element can hold the following items:
• Measurement
• Measurement status
• Timestamp
• Source setting (at the time the measurement was taken)
• Range information
Two reading buffers are reserved for each SourceMeter channel. Reading buffers can be filled using
the front panel STORE key and retrieved using the RECALL key or host interface.
Buffer Size, with timestamp and source setting: >50,000 samples.
Buffer Size, without timestamp and source setting: >100,000 samples.
Battery Backup: Lithium-ion battery backup. 30 days of non-volatile storage @ 23°C, and
>4 hours of charge time. 3 year battery life @ 23°C. 1.5 year battery life @ 50°C.
FACTORY TSP SCRIPTS: See
www.keithley.com for Keithley-supported application-specific scripts.
SYSTEM EXPANSION: The TSP-Link expansion interface allows TSP enabled instruments to trigger
and communicate with each other. See figure below:
Each SourceMeter has two TSP-Link connectors to facilitate chaining instruments together.
• Once SourceMeter instruments are interconnected via TSP-Link, a computer can access all of the
resources of each SourceMeter via the host interface of any SourceMeter.
• A maximum of 64 TSP-Link nodes can be interconnected. Each SourceMeter consumes one
TSP-Link node.
TIMER: Free running 47 bit counter with 1MHz clock input. Reset each time instrument powers up.
Rolls over every 4 years.
Timestamp: TIMER value automatically saved when each measurement is triggered.
Resolution: 1µs.
Accuracy: 50ppm.
