Use Kpulse To Create And Export Segment Arb Waveforms - Keithley 4200A-SCS User Manual

Model 4200A-SCS Pulse Card (PGU and PMU) User's Manual

Use KPulse to create and export Segment Arb waveforms

This example demonstrates how to create a program and erase waveform using the KPulse flash
example file.
You will export the waveforms, which you can import into the Clarius Configure pane for the subsite
when Segment Stress/Measure Mode is selected.
Each segment pulse waveform must have the same total time. The minimum programmed time for
any segment is 20 ns (20E-9 s), but actual output waveform performance is determined by the
channel output capability.
To use KPulse to create and export Segment Arb waveforms:
1. If they are open, close Clarius and KCon.
2. Open KPulse.
3. Select File > Load Setup.
4. Select Kpulse_Flash_Example_01.kps.
5. Select Open.
6. Select Edit Segarb. This opens the edit dialog box for both channels. You can use copy and
paste to copy information between the channels.
7. Note that the trigger is set to 1 in the first and fifth segments. These are the first segments in the
program and erase pulses in a typical two pulse program/erase waveform. It is recommended
that you set trigger to 1 for the first segment of each pulse in a waveform.
8. For each unique waveform, export each to a file as described below.
To export a Segment Arb waveform file:
1. Select Tools.
2. Select Export Segment Arb to open the Segment Arb Export dialog box.
3. Select the pulse card and channel for the waveform to be exported.
