Setting this attribute to
smu
X
.OUTPUT_HIGH_Z
causes the output to turn off and go to the High Z
mode. If the
smu
X
.source.output
is read after setting this attribute to
smu
X
.OUTPUT_HIGH_Z
, it
returns
0
.
Example
smua.source.output = smua.OUTPUT_ON
Turns on SMU channel A source output.

outputAction
The output enable action of the source; set to one of the following values:
0
or
smu
X
.OE_NONE
: No action
1
or
smu
X
.OE_OUTPUT_OFF
: Turns the source output off
X
Source-measure unit (SMU) channel (for example,
smua.source.outputenableaction
applies to SMU channel A)
Details
This attribute controls the SMU action taken when the output enable line is deasserted.
When set to
smu
X
.OE_NONE
, the SMU takes no action when the output enable line goes low
(deasserted).
When set to
smu
X
.OE_OUTPUT_OFF
and the output enable line is de-asserted, the SMU turns its
output off as if the
smu
X
.source.output = smu
X
.OUTPUT_OFF
command had been received.
The SMU does not automatically turn its output on when the output enable line returns to the high
state.
If the output enable line is not asserted when this attribute is set to
smu
X
.OE_OUTPUT_OFF
and the
output is on, the output turns off immediately.
Detection of the output enable line going low does not abort any running scripts. This may cause
execution errors.
Example
smua.source.outputenableaction = smua.OE_OUTPUT_OFF
Sets SMU channel A to turn off the output if the output enable line goes low (deasserted).
