M9602A/M9603A front panel
As shown in Figure 1, the M9602A/M9603A has High force, Low force, High sense,
Low sense and Guard. It supports both two-wire and four-wire measurement, and low
current measurement with a guard.
Step 2-1. Select cable and accessories for connection between M9602A/M9603A and your DUT
You will need to select an appropriate accessory according to the connection type.
There are basically three types of connection configurations. The essential cables and
accessories are as follows:
Two-wire or
Four-wire
Pulse width
Recommended cable
High force
High sense
Low sense
Four-wire

1. A low inductance cable does not have Guard, and is limited in low current measurement. Guard connection is
required for low current measurement (~ 10 nA or less measurement.)
2. A low inductance cable can be used, though it is limited in low current measu rement.
3. An SMB-BNC cable can be used, however, do not connect the outer shield, Low Force, to the chassis/frame ground
of the DUT when M9603A is grounded.
