2600BS-901-01 Rev. C / August 2016
Performs a linear current sweep with voltage measured at every step (point):
1. Sets the
smu
to output
starti
amperes, allows the source to settle for
stime
seconds, and then
performs a voltage measurement.
2. Sets the
smu
to output the next amperes step, allows the source to settle for
stime
seconds, and then
performs a voltage measurement.
3. Repeats the above sequence until the voltage is measured on the
stopi
amperes step.
The linear step size is automatically calculated as follows:
step = (stopi – starti) / (points – 1)

Example
SweepILinMeasureV(smua, -1E-3, 1E-3, 0, 100)
This function performs a 100-point linear current
sweep starting at
−
1 mA and stopping at
+
1 mA.
Voltage is measured at every step (point) in the
sweep. Because
stime
is set for 0 s, voltage is
measured as quickly as possible after each
current step.

SweepIListMeasureV()
This KISweep factory script function performs a current list sweep with voltage measured at every step (point).
