15.9 Diode BVAndCj-V SCUU: Diode junction capacitance and breakdown
voltage measurement using SCUU (A.01.20)
[Supported Analyzer]
B1500A
[Description]
Measures the reverse bias junction capacitance and breakdown voltage by using one MFCMU, two SMUs,
and a set of SCUU/GSWU.
For a more accurate measurement, perform correction data measurement at the measurement frequency before
starting the capacitance measurement.
If the measurement frequency is not included in the list of default frequencies below, click the Advanced
Options... button and set the measurement frequency on the Frequency area of the Advanced Options for CMU
Calibration window.
Default frequencies:
1 k, 2 k, 5 k, 10 k, 20 k, 50 k, 100 k, 200 k, 500 k, 1 M, 1.2 M, 1.5 M, 2 M, 2.5 M, 2.7 M, 3 M, 3.2 M, 3.5 M,
3.7 M, 4 M, 4.2 M, 4.5 M, 5 MHz

Diode
[Required Modules and Accessories]
One MFCMU module, two SMU modules, and a set of SCUU/GSWU are required.
SCUU connections: Output1: anode, Output2: cathode
Connection wire must be connected between the GSWU and the DUT interface High/Low guard lines for the
capacitance measurements.
