Safety

Warning
To avoid safety hazards obey the following:
Do not leave devices with applied bias or current unattended as a power failure may result in
board damage or device damage and potentially hazardous situations.
The Ossila Multiplexer Measurement Unit was designed to be used with Drain (Channel B) and
Gate(Channel A) input currents below 100 mA. The Ossila SuperFact Control Software
automatically limits the input currents. Due to this reason there is no fuse in the signal paths to
conserve the accuracy of the measurement. If not using the Ossila SuperFact controlled Software,
ensure the Drain and Gate input signals are limited to 100 mA.
Caution
To avoid damaging devices or equipment obey the following:
Avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD) as this may damage the device. To avoid damage, use static
discharge and prevention equipment where necessary.
Only use the System for the purposes intended (described in this document)
Do not expose the System to any cleaning fluids or solvents.
Ensure that the SMU(s) are not exposed to heat source and are well ventilated to avoid overheating.
Follow good practice when setting up the test system. Avoid placing mobile phones/electrical
devices close to the system as this can cause interference.
