Table 2-7 HCSMU Voltage Ranges and Resolutions (HCSMU / DHCSMU)
Table 2-8 HCSMU Current Ranges and Resolutions
NOTE 40 A range and 2 A range
The 40 A range and the 2 A range are available when two HCSMU modules are
installed in the B1505A and connected to the 16493S-020 Dual HCSMU Kelvin
combination adapter or the 16493S-021 Dual HCSMU combination adapter. Two
HCSMU modules can be the DHCSMU which supports ± 40 A (pulse), ± 2 A (DC).
Then the 20 A range is not supported.
When the compliance value is set to > 1 A or < -1 A, the current measurement
range is fixed to the compliance range.
