Upgrading from existing B1505A
Upgrading from existing B1505A
B1505A owners can upgrade their own B1505A to expand voltage and current range or
add capacitance measurement capability.
Please refer to the following step by step instructions on how to upgrade your existing
B1505A.
•
Step 1: Create a full configuration based on your measurement requirement
•
Step 2: Check if existing modules are re-usable in the new configuration
•
B1510A HPSMU
•
B1510A HPSMU used for module selector input can be re-used for the same
purpose.
•
B1510A HPSMU used for a Gate SMU should be replaced with a B1514A
MCSMU
•
B1512A HCSMU
•
B1512A HCSMU can be re-used as a controller SMU for a N1265A Ultra High
Current Expander/Fixture, N1266A HVSMU Current Expander and N1268A
Ultra High Voltage Expander (V control SMU only). In this case, one
N1254A-103 Triaxial (m) to BNC (f) adapter and N1254A-517 Triaxial (f) to
Triaxial (m)adpter are required.
•
B1513A/B HVSMU
•
B1513A HVSMU cannot be used with N1267A HVSMU/HCSMU Fast Switch
unit. It must be replaced to the B1513Bor later
•
B1513A HVSMU cannot be used for gate charge measurement.
(N1259A/N1265A-014, N1274A orN1275A). It must be replaced to the
B1513B or later.
•
B1513A HVSMU needs to be replaced with a B1513B/C HVSMU when you
make GaN current collapse measurement using a N1267A HVSMU/HCSMU
Fast Switch
•
B1513A/B HVSMU needs to be replaced with a B1513C HVSMU when you
install more than one HVSMU. (Only B1513C supports multiple HVSMU
configuration)
•
Step 3: Check total number of consumed slots. If the total number of consumed slots
exceeds 10, replace dual-slot modules with single-slot modules.
•
B1510A HPSMU
•
B1510A HPSMU may be replaced with a B1511B MPSMU
•
B1512A HCSMU
•
B1512A HCSMU may be replaced with a B1514A MCSMU
•
Step 4: Check if existing cables are re-usable or not and add cables if necessary
