Keithley's SourceMeter family is designed specifically for test applications
that demand tightly coupled sourcing and measurement. All SourceMeter models
provide precision voltage and current sourcing as well as measurement
capabilities. Each SourceMeter instrument is both a highly stable DC power
source and a true instrument-grade 5 1/2-digit multimeter. The power source
characteristics include low noise, precision, and readback. The multimeter
capabilities include high repeatability and low noise. The result is a compact,
single-channel, DC parametric tester. In operation, these instruments can act
as a voltage source, a current source, a voltage meter, a current meter, and an
ohmmeter. Manufacturers of components and modules for the communications,
semiconductor, computer, automotive, and medical industries will find the
SourceMeter instruments invaluable for a wide range of characterisation and
production test applications.
The Model 2420 High Voltage SourceMeter® is a 60W instrument designed to
source and measure voltage from ±5µV (source) and ±1µV (measure) to ±60V and
current from ±100pA to ±3A. Production test applications for the Model 2420
include resistors and resistor network devices that must be tested at higher
current levels, thermistors, solar cells, batteries, and high current or medium
power diodes, including switching and Schottky diodes. The Model 2420 is also
suitable for IDDQ testing of CMOS integrated circuits and monitoring
the current consumption of battery-powered medical devices such as pacemakers.
