smuX.measure.filter.type
X = SMU channel (a or b)
Attribute
Type of filter for measurements.
Default
0 (2601A/2602A/2611A/2612A)
1 (2635A/2636A)
TSP-Link
accessibility
This attribute can be accessed from a remote TSP-Link node.
Usage
type = smuX.measure.filter.type
-- Reads filter type.
smuX.measure.filter.type = type
-- Writes filter type.
type
The filter type.
Set
type
to one of the following values:
0
or
smuX.FILTER_MOVING_AVG
Selects the moving average filter.
1
or
smuX.FILTER_REPEAT_AVG
Selects the repeat filter.
2
or
smuX.FILTER_MEDIAN
Selects the median filter.
Remarks
• There are two averaging filter types to choose from: repeating and moving. For the repeating
filter (which is the power-on default), the stack (filter count) is filled, and the conversions are
averaged to yield a reading. The stack is then cleared, and the process starts over.
• The median filter uses a first-in, first-out stack. When the stack (filter count) becomes full, the
“middle-most” reading is returned. For each subsequent conversion placed into the stack, the
oldest reading is discarded. The stack is then re-sorted, yielding a new reading. If the filter count
is an even number, the reading returned is the average of the two middle readings.
• The moving average filter uses a first-in, first-out stack. When the stack (filter count) becomes
full, the measurement conversions are averaged, yielding a reading. For each subsequent
conversion placed into the stack, the oldest conversion is discarded. The stack is re-averaged,
yielding a new reading.
• The
reset
function selects the repeat filter.

smuX.measure.highcrangedelayfactor
X = SMU channel (a or b)
Attribute
The multiplier for delays during range change when High-C mode is active.
Default
10
TSP-Link
accessibility
This attribute can be accessed from a remote TSP-Link node.
Usage
smuX.measure.highcrangedelayfactor = delayfactor
delayfactor = smuX.measure.highcrangedelayfactor
delayfactor
The
delay
factor.
Remarks
• The delay factor must be set to a value between 1 and 99.
Details

Example
Set the delay factor for SMU A to 5:
smua.measure.highcrangedelayfactor = 5
