Quick Reference

Preparing the Instrument for Use

To position the instrument:

1. Grab the handle by the sides and pull outward.

2. Rotate the handle.

3. Position the instrument.

To turn the instrument ON:

1. Connect the power cord from AC input connector to an AC power outlet at your site.

2. Press the line switch.

To set the power line cycle:

1. Press the More > System > PLC function keys.

2. Press the 50 Hz or 60 Hz key to specify the power line cycle at the site.

To connect the device under test (DUT), optional:

1. B2900 terminals use banana

jacks. Prepare test leads

that use banana plugs.

2. Connect the test leads as

shown in the figures.

For using 4-wire connection, set the Sensing Type to 4-WIRE on the Output Connection dialog box. With the

default setting, it is set to 2-WIRE.

The dialog box is opened by pressing the Config > Source > Connection function keys.

Performing Low Current Measurements

For performing low current measurements accurately, use the triaxial cable. It can reduce the affect of leakage

current, external noise, and such caused by the extended measurement path. For using the triaxial cables, the

Keysight N1297A/N1297B banana to triaxial adapter is required. This adapter can convert the B2900 source/

What is the B2900 SMU?

An SMU combines the capabilities of a current source,

a voltage source, a current meter, and a voltage meter

along with the capability to switch easily between these

various functions into a single instrument. This gives it

the ability to evaluate the IV characteristics of devices

across all four measurement quadrants without the need

for any additional equipment.

In addition to its DC operation mode, B2901B/B2902B/

B2911B/B2912B also have the ability to perform pulsed

measurements in order to prevent device self-heating

from distorting the measurement results.

2-Wire and 4-Wire Connections To simplify the connections, use 2-wire connection by

connecting the Force terminals only and opening the

Sense terminals.

For low resistance measurements and high current

measurements, use 4-wire connection. Connecting

the Force and Sense lines together at the terminal of the

DUT minimizes the measurement error caused by the

residual resistance of the test leads or cables.

Grounded and Floating Measurements

With the default setting, Low Force

terminal is connected to the chassis

ground. However, it can be

disconnected from the ground for

floating measurements. This setup is

effective for differential voltage

measurements which usually require

two channels as shown in the

Grounded 2 connection.

For the floating measurements, set the Low Terminal State to FLOATING on the Output Connection dialog box.

With the default setting, it is set to GROUNDED. The dialog box is opened by pressing the Config > Source >

Connection function keys. With the FLOATING setting, the Low Force and Low Sense terminals can be

connected to the maximum of ±250 V.

WARNING: Potentially hazardous voltages of up to ±250 V may be present at the Low Force and Low Sense

terminals. To prevent electrical shock, use accessories that comply with IEC 61010-031. The terminals and

the extended conductors must be isolated by using insulation caps, sleeves, etc.
