Compliance limit
When sourcing voltage, the SourceMeter can be set to limit current. Conversely, when
sourcing current, the SourceMeter can be set to limit voltage. The SourceMeter output will
not exceed the compliance limit. Table 3-2 summarizes compliance limits according to
range. See Section 6 for more details on compliance limit.
