Model 2651A High Power System SourceMeter® Instrument Reference Manual
The magnitude of the first pulse will be start volts; the magnitude of the last pulse will be stop volts. The
magnitude of each pulse in between will be step volts larger than the previous pulse, where:
step = (stop - start) / (points - 1)
This function does not cause the specified smu to output a pulse train. It simply checks to see if all of the pulse
dimensions are achievable, and if they are, assigns the indicated tag or index to the pulse train. The
InitiatePulseTest(tag) function is used to initiate a pulse train assigned to a valid tag.
step = (stop - start)/(points -1)

Set up a pulsed sweep that will use System
SourceMeter instrument channel A. The pulsed
sweep will start at 1 V, end at 10 V, and return to a
0 V bias level between pulses. Each pulsed step will
be on for 10 ms, and then at the bias level for 20 ms.
The current limit will be 1 A during the entire pulsed
sweep. The pulse train will be comprised of 16 pulsed
steps, and the pulse train will be assigned a tag
index of 4.
