Series 2600 System SourceMeter instruments reportedly combine the highest throughput source-measure unit (SMU) in the industry with a scalable instrument form factor to allow integration into systems from 1 to 16 SMU channels. The single-channel Model 2601 and the dual-channel Model 2602 are modular, scalable instruments for building ATE systems to perform precision DC, pulse, and low-frequency AC source-measure tests.
A new embedded Test Script Processor (TSP) lets users program a sequence of test commands and execute high-speed automated test sequences independently of a PC operating system. Features an intuitive intelligence that lets the instrument stand alone as a complete measurement automation solution for component testing. Can control sourcing, measuring, pass/fail decisions, test sequence flow control, component binning and data storage.
Equipped with Test Script Builder development software, a simple GUI lets users develop, modify and debug high-speed TSP programs. Each unit also features a built-in suite of pre-written TSP programs that can be modified for specific applications. LabTracer 2.0 software enables easy instrument control, data acquisition and curve tracing in lab or device characterization applications.
The high throughput, flexible and scalable instruments are suitable for a range of applications in functional test and R&D environments. Units can perform I-V functional test and I-V characterization of a range of integrated devices and components including discrete and passive devices, and SSI and LSI devices such as ASICs, SOCs, and RFICs. In R&D environments, units can perform device characterization to aid in materials research for device development.
