4210-SMU or 4211-SMU with 4200-PA:
In the following figure, the 1 A, 20 V and 100 mA, 200 V
magnitudes are nominal values. The actual maximum output magnitudes of the 4210-SMU or
4211-SMU and 4200-PA are 1.05 A, 21 V and 105 mA, 210 V. Note that the boundaries are not
drawn to scale.

Preamplifier terminals and connectors
The locations and configuration of the 4200-PA terminals are shown in the following figure. Basic
information about these terminals is summarized below. Refer to the
(on page 2-1) for additional information regarding making preamplifier signal
connections.
Exposure to electrical shock could result in personal injury or death. Precautions must be
taken to prevent a shock hazard by surrounding the test device and any unprotected leads
(wiring) with double insulation that is rated for 250 V, Category O. See IEC 61010-1 safety
standards for details. When connecting to the 4200A-SCS SMU outputs, make sure to use
devices and cables that have ratings for the sourced voltages. Cables with incorrect ratings
will not properly insulate the external connections to the instrument and may pose a shock
hazard. SMU and preamplifier terminals should be considered hazardous even if the outputs
are programmed to be low voltage.
