Section 9: Keithley External Control Interface (KXCI)
VC and IC
This command configures the SMU to output a fixed (constant) voltage or current level.
Usage
AAB, ±CCC.CCCC, ±DDD.DDDD
AA
B
CCC.CCCC
DDD.DDDD
Details
For any channel configured as a SMU, this command configures the SMU to output a fixed (constant)
voltage or current level.
With the voltage source mode (VC) specified in the command string, you set the current compliance.
For the current source mode (IC), you set the voltage compliance.
