Thermistor Production Test Using the Agilent B2900A Series of SMUs Technical Overview Agilent B2901/02/11/12A Precision Source/Measure Unit Agilent B2901A Precision SMU, 1ch, 100 fA resolution, 210 V, 3 A DC/10.5 A pulse Agilent B2902A Precision SMU, 2ch, 100 fA resolution, 210 V, 3 A DC/10.5 A pulse Agilent B2911A Precision SMU, 1ch, 10 fA resolution, 210 V, 3 A DC/10.5 A pulse Agilent B2912A Precision SMU. 2ch, 10 fA resolution, 210 V, 3 A DC/10.5 A pulse Introduction High force DUT interface Thermistors are devices that exhibit Test variations in resistance as a function leads Thermistor of temperature. Due to this property, thermistors are used for a variety of GPIB LAN Low force applications such as temperature USB GPIO Mechanical sensors, current limiting devices and connection liquid level sensors. To ensure compliance with manu- Component handler facturing specifications, single-point pass/fail DC testing must be performed on thermistor devices. Figure 1.
