Pulsing: Source and measure hardware

Keithley Instruments has additional instrumentation designed for pulsing, including the 4205-PG2

pulse generator and the 4200-SCP2 or 4200-SCP2HR digital storage oscilloscope (DSO). Up to

four pulse generator cards and one scope card can be used in a 4200-SCS test system.

Pulse generator cards and a scope card are preinstalled at the factory when you order them with

your initial 4200-SCS. The pulse generator card and scope card can also be ordered separately or

as part of a pulse package (for instance, the 4200-PIV-HR Pulse I-V solution bundle). Pulse

packages include the hardware and any special components required for its intended applications.

Pulse generators can be used along with DSO for AC (pulse) applications or integrated into a

system with Keithley Instruments SMUs to include DC source and measure capability.

Keithley pulse card: The dual-channel pulse generator provides voltage pulses as short as 20ns

in high speed mode or up to ±20 V (into 50 Ω) in high voltage mode. In addition to standard pulse

output, it also provides arb generator functions: full-arb or Segment ARB

4200-SCP2 or 4200-SCP2HR: The dual-channel DSO performs measurements in both the time

(frequency, rise/fall time) and voltage domains (amplitude, peak-peak, and so on). The two scopes

are similar, except the 4200-SCP2HR has a higher resolution. Also included is KScope, which is a

graphical user interface (GUI) to configure and control the scope card.
