Memory List Delay Setup - Agilent Technologies U2722A User Manual

Memory list delay setup

Generally, the duration spent at each command in the memory list only
consists of the time it takes to execute the commands. But for source
commands, a source delay may be included. The source delay is used to
allow the source to settle before the measurement is made. The total time
period of the source delay can include an auto delay and/or a user
programmed delay.
Total delay time = auto delay time + user programmed delay time.
If auto delay is enabled, a certain duration of delay, which depends on the
source and measurement range, is performed. Auto delay is used to ensure
that there is enough rising time for the source to reach the specified level.

enabled. There are two type of user programmable source delay: the global
delay and single delay. When the global delay is added, all the subsequent
source action will perform the same time period of delay. When the single
delay is added, only the next subsequent source action will be affected
while the other commands are not. When the global and single delay are
used together, only the next subsequent source action for the single delay
is affected by the single delay, while the other source actions will take
effect from the global delay.

sweep.
