DUT connections
2-wire sense connections are shown in Figure 6, and 4-wire sense connections are shown
in Figure 7. Use 4-wire remote sensing for the following source-measure conditions:
•
The error caused by test lead resistance with 2-wire sensing is not acceptable.
•
Optimum ohms, V-source, and/or V-measure accuracy is required.
