Keithley Source Meter KEITHLEY2450 Product Manual

Keithley SourceMeter KEITHLEY2450 is Keithley's new generation of digital source meter (SMU) instrument, which truly brings Ohm's law (current, voltage and resistance) testing to your fingertips. Its innovative graphical user interface (GUI) and advanced capacitive touch screen technology enable intuitive use and simplified learning curve, supporting engineers and scientists to master faster, work more conveniently and invent more simply. 2450 is a source measurement unit (SMU) suitable for users from all walks of life: this multi-purpose instrument is particularly suitable for the characteristic analysis of modern semiconductors, nano devices and materials, organic semiconductors, printed electronics technology and other small size, low power devices. These features, coupled with the precision and accuracy of Keithley's source measurement unit (SMU), allow users to touch, test and invent. Whether now or in the future, it is an instrument that cannot be put down in the laboratory. So how much do you know about Keithley SourceMeter 2450? Today, Antai Test will introduce it to you:

Keithley SourceMeter KEITHLEY2450 is the fourth generation member of Keithley's award-winning digital source table source measurement unit (SMU) series instruments, based on the proven architecture of the 2400 digital source table source measurement unit (SMU) instrument. It provides highly flexible 4-quadrant voltage and current source/load, as well as precision voltage and current instruments. This integrated instrument can be used as:

• Precision power supply with voltage and current readback

• True current source

• Digital multimeter, measures DC voltage, current, resistance and power, with 6½ digit resolution

• Precision electronic load

• Trigger Controller
