S2017C

High Precision SMU

The S2017C by Semight is a compact, cost-effective, single-slot, single-channel Precision Source/Measure Unit (SMU). It can simultaneously output and measure voltage and current, providing up to ±200 V, ±1 A, and 20 W constant power output. Supporting traditional SMU SCPI commands, it makes test code migration quick and easy. It’s compatible with mainstream PXIe chassis and supports multi-card synchronization for integration into production test systems, enhancing test efficiency and reducing costs.

S2017c Four Quadrants

♦ The first and third quadrants are the source: the actual polarity of output V / I follows the source setting.
♦ The second and fourth quadrants are for load: CC and CV cooperate. When the load is used, the polarity of the load setting is opposite to the source polarity.

[2] This instrument has a potentially dangerous high voltage (±210 V) output to the HI / Sense HI / Guard terminals. To prevent electric shock, relevant safety precautions must be taken before powering on. Do not connect the Guard terminal to any output, including shorting it to the chassis ground or output LO, as this will damage the instrument.
