Step 3: Current source calibration
Follow these steps to calibrate the current source.
summarizes current source
calibration resistances and commands.
1. Send the following command to select the pulse mode:
:SOUR1:FUNC:SHAP PULS
2. Send the following commands to set source and measure polarities:
:SENS1:VOLT:POL POS
:SOUR1:CURR:POL POS
3. Connect the 10 to 15
Ω
resistor to the Model 2520 testhead VOLTAGE SENSE and
CURRENT OUTPUT jacks, as shown in
4. Set the pulse transition to fast:
:SOUR1:PULS:TRAN:STAT OFF
5. Set ranges with these commands:
:SENS1:VOLT:RANG 10
:SOUR1:CURR:RANG 0.5
6. Send this command to turn on the source output:
:OUTP1 ON
7. Set the compliance DAC to full scale so that it does not affect the measurement:
:DIAG:KEIT:BITS:VDAC1 4095
8. Source 10% of full scale:
:SOUR1:CURR 0.05
9. Trigger a pulse:
:INIT
10. Send the following query to request the Model 2520 voltage measurement:
:SENS1:DATA?
11. Note the voltage reading returned by the Model 2520 in step 10, then calculate the
actual sourced current as follows: I = V/R. Here, I is the actual sourced current, V
is the returned Model 2520 voltage reading, and R is the actual resistance value.
12. Send the following calibration command using the current calculated in step 11:
:CAL:PROT:SOUR1 <Calculated_Current>
For example, if the resistance value is 14.02
Ω
, and the returned voltage reading
from step 10 is 0.6732V, the actual current is: I = 0.6732V/14.02
Ω
= 0.048017A.
In this example, the calibration command is:
:CAL:PROT:SOUR1 0.048017
13. Send this command to source 90% of full scale current:
:SOUR1:CURR 0.45
14. Repeat steps 9 through 12.
15. Send this command to select the slow transition pulse:
:SOUR1:PULS:TRAN:STAT ON
