Tektronix Keithley 4200A-SCS - Equipment Required; Device Connections

Section 3: Configure and use a Series 700 Switching System Model 4200A-SCS Prober and External Instrument Control
3-2 4200A-913-01 Rev. A December 2020
Equipment required
• One 4200A-SCS with the following instruments:
▪ Three 4200-SMUs, 4201-SMUs, 4210-SMUs, or 4211-SMUs
▪ One 4210-CVU or 4215-CVU
• Eight 4200-MTRX-X triaxial cables or 4200-TRX-X cables if using preamplifiers
• Four CA-447A SMA cables (supplied with the CVU)
• Four CS-1247 SMA female to BNC male adapters (supplied with the CVU)
• Two CS-701A BNC Tee adapters (female, male, female)
• Two 7078-TRX-BNC BNC female to triaxial male adapters
• One Series 700 Switching System with a 7072 8x12 Matrix Card
• One shielded four-terminal test fixture with triaxial inputs
• One n-channel MOSFET transistor
Device connections
The next topics detail the connections from the 7072 to the n-channel MOSFET and the connections
from the SMUs or CVU, and GNDU to the 7072 Matrix Card in the Series 700 Switching System.
Hazardous voltages may be present on all output and guard terminals. To prevent electrical
shock that could cause injury or death, never connect or disconnect from the 4200A-SCS
while the output is on.
To prevent electric shock, test connections must be configured such that the user cannot
come in contact with test leads, conductors, or any device under test (DUT) that is in contact
with the conductors. It is good practice to disconnect DUTs from the instrument before
powering up the instrument. Safe installation requires proper shields, barriers, and grounding
to prevent contact with test lead and conductors.
