The source function:
• Voltage pulse sweep: VOLTage
• Current pulse sweep:
Output level the instrument sources before the first pulse and returns to between
pulses (delay and off time):
• Current: -7.35 A to 7.35 A
•
The voltage or current source level at which the pulse sweep starts:
• Current: -10.5 A to 10.5 A
•
The voltage or current source level at which the pulse sweep stops:
• Current: -10.5 A to 10.5 A
•
The step size at which the source level will change; step size must be greater than
0; to calculate the number of source-measure points in a sweep, use the following
formula:
Points = [(Stop - Start) / Step] + 1
