Example Program for Excel 97
This section contains the example program written using Excel Macros (Visual
Basic ® for Applications) to control your Agilent E3633A or Agilent E3634A. With
Excel you can take the value of a cell in a spread sheet, send it to the power supply,
and then record the response on the worksheet. The example on the following pages
characterizes a component across the terminals of the power supply. This example
reads 11 voltages from a worksheet, programs the power supply to that voltage, and
then reads the current. The value of current is recorded next to the voltage on the
spread sheet.
Example The following table shows the result of the example program starting on page 139 for
program result characterizing a diode. (Agilent Part number: 1901-1214, Manufacturer Part number:
