The Tektronix MP5000 series offers a highly flexible platform for precise measurements and current/voltage sources. The modular design allows Source Measure Units (SMUs) and Power Supply Units (PSUs) to be combined in a compact 1U rack format. Users benefit from high channel density, flexible configuration and reduced costs per channel.
Applications
The MP5000 series can be used for a wide range of applications, including:
- Characterization and validation of semiconductors and components
- Accurate current and voltage sources in laboratory and production
- High-throughput automated test environments (ATE)
- Long-term and reliability tests with synchronized multi-mainframes
SMU module MSMU60-2
The MSMU60-2 is a powerful source measure unit module with two independent channels. It combines precise voltage and current sources with a high-resolution measurement function in a compact module. Thanks to 4-quadrant operation, both source and sink operations can be realized, making it the ideal tool for demanding I/V characterizations and precise component measurements.
Advantages and strengths
- Two full SMU channels per module - up to 6 channels per mainframe
- 4-quadrant operation: Source and sink in voltage and current
- Highest measurement resolution up to 100 fA for the most precise low-current applications
- Fast acquisition with integrated 1 MSa/s ADCs
- Flexible cable management due to up to 6 V between force and sense
- Integrated protection functions such as autoSense resistor against contact errors
- Asymmetrical compliance limits for maximum test flexibility
Other modules in the MP5000 series
- MP5103 (mainframe) - 1 U mainframe with 3 module slots, Ethernet/USB-C interfaces, touch display and TSP-Link synchronization.
- MPSU50-2ST (PSU module) - Power supply module with 2 channels up to 50 V/5 A, expandable to 100 V/10 A, incl. protection and remote sense functions.
