Usage
smua.pulser.measure.calibrateY(range, cp1Measured, cp1Reference, cp2Measured,
cp2Reference)
range
The pulse measurement range to adjust
Y
The measurement function (v = voltage, i = current)
cp1Measured
The value measured by this SMU for point 1
cp1Reference
The reference measurement for point 1 as measured externally
cp2Measured
The value measured by this SMU for point 2
cp2Reference
The reference measurement for point 2 as measured externally
Details
This function generates and activates new calibration constants for the given range.
The positive and negative polarities of the instrument must be adjusted separately. Use a positive
value for the range parameter to adjust the positive polarity and a negative value for the range
parameter to adjust the negative polarity.
The new calibration constants are activated immediately but they are not written to nonvolatile
memory. Use the smua.cal.save() function to save the new constants to nonvolatile memory. The
active calibration constants stay in effect until the instrument is power cycled or a calibration set is
loaded from nonvolatile memory with the smua.cal.restore() function.
This function is only available when calibration is unlocked using smua.cal.unlock().
Example
smua.pulser.measure.calibratei(1, 0.01, 0.011, 0.75, 0.76)
Adjusts the current measurement using the following values:
▪ 1 A measurement range
▪ 0.01 for the +zero measurement reading
▪ 0.011 for the +zero DMM measurement reading
▪ 0.75 for the + full-scale measurement reading
▪ 0.76 for the + full-scale DMM measurement reading
