Performance Verification
Current measurement accuracy
Follow the steps below to verify that Model 2425 current measurement accuracy is within
specified limits. The procedure involves applying accurate currents from the Model 2425
current source and then verifying that Model 2425 current measurements are within
required limits.
10
μ
A to 1A range accuracy
1. With the power off, connect the digital multimeter to the Model 2425 INPUT/
OUTPUT jacks, as shown in Figure 1-2.
2. Select the multimeter DC current function.
3. Set the Model 2425 to both source and measure current by pressing the SOURCE I
and MEAS I keys, and make sure the source output is turned on.
4. Verify measure current accuracy for the 10
μ
A-1A range currents listed in Table
1-6. For each measurement:
•
Select the correct source range.
•
Set the Model 2425 source output to the correct value as measured by the digital mul-
timeter.
•
Verify that the Model 2425 current reading is within the limits given in the table.
NOTE
It may not be possible to set the current source to the specified value. Use the
closest possible setting, and modify reading limits accordingly.
5. Repeat the procedure for negative calibrator currents with the same magnitudes as
those listed in Table 1-6.
6. Repeat the entire procedure using the rear panel INPUT/OUTPUT jacks. Be sure to
select the rear panel jacks with the front panel TERMINALS key.
3A range accuracy
NOTE
The 1
Ω
resistor should be characterized to within ±300ppm before verifying the
3A current measurement range. Use the 4-wire ohms function of the DMM to
measure the resistance value, and then use that measured value to calculate the
current during the measurement procedure.
1. With the power off, connect the 1
Ω
resistor and digital multimeter to the Model
2425 INPUT/OUTPUT jacks, as shown in Figure 1-3.
2. Select the multimeter DC volts function.
3. Set the Model 2425 to both source and measure current by pressing the SOURCE I
and MEAS I keys, and make sure the source output is turned on.
