Connection Guide for Wafer Prober and Your Own Test Fixture
To Connect HVSMU Current Expander
Table 5-26 To Connect N1266A Input
CAUTION The GNDU can sink current of up to 4.2 A. Use 16493L GNDU cable to connect the
GNDU to the N1267A.
Do not use normal triaxial cable (16494A) because the maximum current rating of the
cable is 1 A.
Table 5-27 To Connect N1266A Output
CAUTION Never connect the HVSMU Force and Guard terminals and the HVMCU High terminal to
any output, including circuit common, chassis ground, or any other measurement resource
such as SMU. Connecting other measurement resource may damage the connected one.
