Type TSP-Link accessible
Attribute (RW) Yes
Usage
settleOption = smuX.source.settling
smuX.source.settling = settleOption
settleOption

Details
Using smuX.SETTLE_FAST_RANGE may cause the SMU to exceed the range change overshoot
specification.
smuX.SETTLE_FAST_POLARITY does not go to zero when changing polarity and may create
inconsistencies at the zero crossing.
smuX.SETTLE_DIRECT_IRANGE switches the SMU directly to the target range instead of the default
"range-by-range" method. This option is mutually exclusive of any other smuX.SETTLE_FAST_*
commands.
Example
smua.source.settling = smua.SETTLE_FAST_POLARITY
Selects fast polarity changing for SMU channel A.

Recall setup
Set to the source settling mode. Set to one of the following values:
▪
0 or smuX.SETTLE_SMOOTH: Turns off additional settling operations (default)
▪
1 or smuX.SETTLE_FAST_RANGE: Instructs the source-measure unit (SMU)
to use a faster procedure when changing ranges
▪
2 or smuX.SETTLE_FAST_POLARITY: Instructs the SMU to change polarity
without going to zero
▪
3 or smuX.SETTLE_DIRECT_IRANGE: Instructs the SMU to change the
current range directly
▪
128 or smuX.SETTLE_FAST_ALL: Enables all smuX.SETTLE_FAST_*
operations
SMU channel (for example, smua.source.settling applies to SMU channel A)
