pulsev(SMU2, 20.0, 5e-1) /* Apply a 20 V pulse to the */

/* point occurs. Return results */
/* to res2. */
This example measures the threshold voltage shift of an FET by calling two searchv commands:
1. The searchv command measures the gate voltage required to initiate a drain current of 10 μA.
2. The searchv command measures the gate voltage required to initiate a drain current of 10 μA
immediately after a 20 V pulse is applied to the gate.
Note that the second searchv command was called without reprogramming the trigil command. This
is possible because the clear trigger command (clrtrg) was not used.
