Using the Protection Functions
Protection Functions
Each output has independent protection functions. A front panel status indicator will turn on when a
protection function has been set. Protection functions are latching, which means that they must be
cleared once they have been set.
Additionally, as explained under
, you can configure the instrument so that when a
protection fault occurs on one output, ALL outputs will be turned off.
Of the following protection functions, only OV, OV-, OC, OSC, PROT, and INH are user- programmable.
OV - Over-voltage protection is a hardware OVP whose trip level is a programmable value. The OVP is
always enabled.
OV− - Negative voltage protection is a hardware OVP. Only applies to models N678xA SMU and
N6783A.
OC - Over-current protection is a programmable function that can be enabled or disabled. When
enabled, the output will be disabled when the output current teaches the current limit setting.
OT - Over-temperature protection monitors the temperature of each output and shuts down the
output if any temperature exceeds the maximum factory-defined limits (see
OUTPut:PROTection:TEMPerature:MARGin?
).
OSC - Oscillation protection shuts down the output if an oscillation is detected on the output. Only
applies to models N678xA SMU.
PF - PF indicates that a power fail condition on the AC mains has disabled the output.
CP+ - CP+ indicates that a positive power limit condition has disabled the output. This protection
function does not apply to all power modules. Refer to
for further information.
CP− - CP− indicates that a negative power limit condition has disabled the output. This protection
function does not apply to all power modules. Refer to
for further information.
PROT - Prot indicates that the output is disabled, either because of a coupled protection signal from
another output, or because the programmed watchdog time has expired.
INH - The Inhibit input (pin 3) on the rear panel digital connector can be programmed to act as an
external shutdown signal. Refer to
for further information.
