Keysight Technologies B2900A Series User Manual

Measurement concept
– Sourcing voltage to turn the LED on.
– Limit value feature prevent the instrument from sourcing too much
even if Source value is increased.
– Stepping voltages from start voltage to stop voltage with making
current measurement at each voltage step.
– Voltage steps are sourced from an internal voltage source.
– Current measurements are made by an internal current meter.
– The complicated measurement as above can be configured and
made easily with Intuitive Graphical User Interface (GUI).
– Current-voltage curve can be seen easily by changing View mode.
Setup
1. Connect the yellow banana plug to Ch 1 Low Force Terminal.
2. Connect the red banana plug to Ch1 High Force Terminal.
3. Clip the LED cathode terminal with the black gold-plated tweezers.
4. Clip the LED anode terminal with the red gold-plated tweezers.
