Overview of running the test
The Model 707B or 708B closes the crosspoints necessary to connect the SourceMeter to each diode
under test one-at-a-time. The SourceMeter then performs an I-V sweep on each diode. This process
continues until all six diodes are tested.
Example code to run the test
To run the test, send the following commands to the corresponding instrument.
