Dedicated reading buffer designations
Each source-measure unit (SMU) contains dedicated reading buffers:
•
smua.nvbuffer1 (buffer 1 for channel A)
•
smua.nvbuffer2 (buffer 2 for channel A)
•
smub.nvbuffer1 (buffer 1 for channel B)
•
smub.nvbuffer2 (buffer 2 for channel B)
To access a reading buffer, include the name of the SMU in the attribute. For example, the following
command stores readings from channel A into buffer 1:
smua.measure.overlappedi(smua.nvbuffer1)
Reading buffer commands
The following tables summarize commands associated with the reading buffers. See
reference (on page 15-1) for detailed reading buffer command information.
