Note:
To obtain the most achievable linear ramp,
users have to set
Vstep
and
Tpu
parame-
ters to 1 mV.

Voltage Protocols
Voltage Ramp protocol
Recovery from inactivation
protocol:
It consist of a series of identical rectangular voltage pulses
Tpu
ms long with
an amplitude of
Vfp
mV. The time interval between two consecutive pulses
(interpulse interval) changes of the value of the
Tstep
parameter. It can be
positive or negative to obtain increasing or decreasing interpulse intervals.
Variable duration pulses
protocol:
It consist of a series of rectangular voltage pulses (
Vfp
mV of fixed amplitude)
of a duration that changes of the value of the
Tstep
parameter.
Voltage Ramp
protocol:
It is the most common protocol to generate the I-V curve for the current-
voltage characterization.
The setting parameters are similar to the previously described rectangular
voltage pulses protocol, with the difference that, instead of the number of
pulses, users can select the final voltage
Vmax
in the range between -315 mV
and +315 mV, with 5mV steps.
