Compliance
Power Compliance
In addition to V compliance or I compliance, you can set power compliance for the
staircase sweep source. Power compliance is set by the WI, WV, WSI, WSV, or
WNX command.
If you specify power compliance, the source/monitor unit (SMU) changes the
current or voltage compliance value every sweep step. The value is the lower value
of either the specified compliance value or the compliance value given by the
following formula. See Figure 6-4.
Current compliance = Specified power compliance value / Step voltage
Voltage compliance = Specified power compliance value / Step current

Available values The following values are available for the power compliance:
MPSMU 1 mW to 4 W
HPSMU 1 mW to 20 W
Conditions after
compliance
When a channel reaches compliance, the staircase sweep source automatically stops
the sweep and forces the start value. For the measurement data after reaching the
compliance, the dummy data 199.999E+99 will be returned.
