Basic Source-Measure Operation
Operation overview
Source-measure capabilities
From the front panel, the SourceMeter can be configured to perform the following
operations:
•
Source voltage
— Display current and/or voltage measurement
•
Source current
— Display voltage and/or current measurement
•
Measure resistance
— Display voltage or current component of measurement
•
Measure only (V or I)
— Display voltage or current measurement
Voltage
— The V-Source can output voltage from ±5µV to ±210V and limit current from
1fA to 105mA. The V-Meter can measure voltage from ±1µV to ±211V. The V-Source and
V-Meter each have four ranges; 200mV, 2V, 20V, and 200V.
Current
— With the Remote PreAmp, the I-Source can output current from ±0.5fA to
±105mA and limit voltage from 200µV to 210V. The I-Meter can measure current from ±10aA
to ±105.5mA. The I-Source and I-Meter each have 12 ranges; 1pA, 10pA, 100pA, 1nA, 10nA,
100nA, 1µA, 10µA, 100µA, 1mA, 10mA, and 100mA.
Without the Remote PreAmp, the 1pA, 10pA, 100pA, 1nA, 10nA, and 100nA ranges are not
available. Therefore, without the Remote PreAmp, the I-Source can output current from ±50pA
to ±105mA and measure current from ±10pA to ±105.5mA.
Resistance
— With the Remote PreAmp, the SourceMeter can make resistance measure-
ments from <100µ
Ω
to >20T
Ω
. When using the auto ohms measurement method, the following
ohms ranges are available, 20

. When using the manual ohms measurement method, you can-
not select ohms ranges. The ohms reading is the mathematical result of V/I.
Without the Remote PreAmp, the 200M

ranges and, as previously pointed out, the six lowest current ranges are not available. Therefore,
without the Remote PreAmp, the SourceMeter can measure resistance from <100µ
Ω
to
>20M
Ω
.
Measure only (V or I)
— The SourceMeter can be used exclusively as a voltmeter
(V-Meter) or an ammeter (I-Meter). When used as a V-Meter only, the I-Source is set to output
0A. When used as an I-Meter only, the V-Source is set to output 0V.
Range of operation
— The maximum power output of the SourceMeter is 2.2W. At
maximum source levels, you can output 210V at 10.5mA or 21V at 105mA. The full range of
operation is explained in Section 5,
Operating boundaries
