Description
The PXIe-4135 Low Current Source Measure Unit is a versatile instrument designed for precision measurements and comes with a variety of part numbers including 783762-01, 783762-02, and 157420F-03L. This device falls under the category of PXI Source Measure Units, offering advanced measurement capabilities for engineering and research applications.
One of the standout features of the PXIe-4135 is its four-quadrant operation, allowing it to function in all four quadrants of the I-V curve. This feature is particularly beneficial for testing components and materials that require sourcing and sinking of current. The unit’s maximum output power is 20 W (standard), but for those needing more power, the 783762-02 version provides up to 40W.
When it comes to resolution, the PXIe-4135 excels with a current estimation resolution of 10 fA, making it ideal for low-current measurements where precision is critical. Additionally, this SMU supports acquisition speeds of up to 1.8 MS/s, enabling fast data collection for dynamic tests.
A unique feature of the PXIe-4135 is its hardware-timed sequencing engine, which allows for precise timing control of measurement sequences. This is complemented by the device’s direct DMA transmission interface between the host PC and the SMU, ensuring efficient data transfer without burdening the host computer’s CPU.
For larger setups, the PXIe-4135 can support up to 68 SMU channels in a single PXIe chassis, providing scalability for complex testing configurations. The device also offers a versatile programming interface that supports various development environments, making it adaptable to different software ecosystems.
Additional features of the PXIe-4135 include interactive soft front panels, ready-to-run example projects, and comprehensive help files and documentation. These resources are designed to help users quickly get up to speed with the device, simplifying the process of integrating it into existing workflows.
