Figure 3-23 Transient Response
I-V Characteristics of N1267A
The N1267A has the I-V characteristics due to the internal semiconductor switches
shown in Figure 3-21. When the device ON state characteristics is monitored, the
voltage actually applied to the DUT will be the HCSMU setting voltage minus the
voltage drop shown below. The voltage drop value varies by the current.
