The B2900A Series of SMUs enables you to make a wide range of current versus voltage (IV) measurements more accurately and quickly than ever before. In addition, the B2900A Series of SMUs comes with an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) and free PC-based application software that make it easy for you to begin making productive measurements immediately. These features make the B2900A Series of SMUs the best solution for accurate characterization of diodes and other devices. B2901/02/11/12A Figure 1 illustrates the connections necessary for measuring a High force A diode using a member of the B2900A Series of SMUs. The B2900A - Series of SMUs allows you to accurately and easily measure the V basic IV parameters and characteristics of diodes, including tests - such as forward voltage, leakage current and breakdown voltage. Low force Figure 1. Using the B2900A Series of SMUs to characterize a diode What is the B2900A Series of SMUs? An SMU combines the capabilities of a current source, a voltage source, a current meter and a voltage meter along with the capability to switch easily between these various functions into a single instrument. This gives it the ability to evaluate the IV characteristics of devices across all four measurement quadrants without the need for any additional equipment. Besides being able to output and measure voltage or current very accurately, SMUs also possess a compliance feature that allows a limit to be placed on the voltage or current output to prevent device damage. The members of the B2900A Series of SMUs are single or dual channel SMU units that offer a wide range of IV measurement capability for a variety of two-terminal and three-terminal devic
