smua.trigger.source.pulsewidth
This attribute sets the source pulse width when using a trigger model sweep when the pulser is enabled
Instrument reset
SMU reset
Recall setup
Usage
pulsewidth = smua.trigger.source.pulsewidth
smua.trigger.source.pulsewidth = pulsewidth
The source pulse width in seconds; set from 0.000001 to 0.065; set to 0 to disable
automatic pulsewidth control
Details
Use this attribute only when generating pulses using the trigger model when the pulser is enabled.
Set the pulsewidth parameter to a nonzero value to limit the action of the source to the specified
pulse width. This allows the 2601B-PULSE to generate pulses with less pulsewidth jitter than those
generated using the end-pulse trigger block in the trigger model.
The value set for this attribute affects the values you can use for the
smua.pulser.measure.aperture and smu.pulser.measure.delay attributes. The sum of
the measure delay and the aperture must be less than the specified pulse width.
You cannot use this attribute and smua.trigger.endpulse.action in the same trigger model.
Example
smua.trigger.source.pulsewidth = 50e-6
Set the source pulse width to 50 µs.

smua.trigger.source.set()
This function sets the source event detector to the detected state.
Usage
