Model 2606B System SourceMeter® Instrument Reference Manual
PulseVMeasureI()
This KIPulse factory script function performs a specified number of pulse V, measure I cycles.
Type
TSP-Link accessible
Function
No
Usage
PulseVMeasureI(smu, bias, level, ton, toff, points)
smu
bias
level
ton
toff
points
Details
If any parameters are omitted or nil, the operator is prompted to enter them using the front panel.
Data for pulsed current measurements, voltage levels, and timestamps are stored in
smuX.nvbuffer1.
To perform the specified number of pulse V, measure I cycles, this function:
Sets the smu to output bias volts and dwell for toff seconds
1.
Sets the smu to output level volts and dwell for ton seconds
2.
Performs voltage measurement with source at level volts
3.
Sets the smu to output bias volts for toff seconds
4.
Repeats steps 2 through 4 for the remaining points pulse-measure cycles
5.
Example
smua.measure.nplc = 0.001
PulseVMeasureI(smua, -1, 1, 1E-3, 2E-3, 20)

Default value
SMU A outputs −1 V and dwells for 2 ms,
outputs 1 V and dwells for 1 ms. The current
measurements occur during each 1 ms
dwell period. After the measurement, the
output returns to −1 V and dwells for 2 ms.
This pulse-measure process repeats 19
more times.
