Model 6517B Electrometer User’s Manual Section 5: Remote Operation
stores the readings in the buffer, and asserts SRQ when the buffer is full. The program waits for
the SRQ, then reads the readings from the buffer.

Test sequence: Staircase sweep
The following program performs a staircase sweep. Using the source voltage measure current
(FVMI) method, this test will measure the current through a DUT at eleven voltage steps (0V
through 10V) (see Figure 4-3). The eleven readings are stored in the buffer and displayed on the
computer CRT at the conclusion
of the test.
