Keithley 2470 Graphical SourceMeter® Source Measure Unit (SMU) brings advanced touch, test, and Invent® technology for users. This SMU combines an innovative Graphical User Interface (GUI) with 5" capacitive touchscreen technology. This combination is used to make testing intuitive and minimize the learning to help engineers and scientists learn faster, work smarter, and invent easier. The 2470 SourceMeter is optimized to test high voltage, low leakage devices, materials, and modules. This 2470 SMU is the fourth generation of SourceMeter SMUs that use the proven capabilities of the original 2410 high voltage SourceMeter SMU instrument. Applications include SiC, GaN, power MOSFETs, power diodes, leakage current, isolation, Hi-Pot, and dielectric withstanding.
Learn Faster; Work Smarter; Invent Easier
The 2470 features a five-inch, full-color, high resolution touchscreen that supports intuitive operation, helps operators become familiar with the instrument quickly, and optimizes overall speed and productivity. A simple icon-based menu structure reduces the number of steps required to configure a test by as much as 50 percent and eliminates the cumbersome multi-layer menu structures typically used on soft-key instruments. Built-in, context-sensitive help supports intuitive operation and minimizes the need to review a separate manual. These capabilities, combined with the 2470's high versatility, simplify its operation in both basic and advanced measurement applications, regardless of the user's previous experience in working with SMU instruments.
All-in-One SMU Instrument
The 2470, Keithley's fourth generation of SourceMeter SMUs, leverages the proven capabilities of the original 2410 High Voltage SourceMeter SMU Instrument. SMU instruments offer a highly flexible, four-quadrant voltage and current source/load coupled with precision voltage and current measurements. This all-in-one instrument can be used as a:
• Precision power supply with V and I readback
• True current source
• Digital multimeter (DCV, DCI, ohms, and power with 6 1/2-digit resolution)
• Precision electronic load
• Pulse generator
• Trigger controller
Ease of Use Beyond the Touchscreen
In addition to its five-inch color touchscreen, the 2470 front panel offers a variety of features that enhance its speed, user-friendliness, and learnability, including a USB 2.0 memory I/O port, a HELP key, a rotary navigation/control knob, a front/rear input terminal selector button, and banana jacks for basic bench applications. The USB 2.0 memory port simplifies storing test results and instrument configurations, uploading test scripts into the instrument, and installing system upgrades. All front-panel buttons are backlit to enhance visibility in low-light environments.
Four Quick Setup modes simplify instrument setup. With one touch, the instrument can be quickly configured for various operating modes without the need to configure the instrument indirectly for this operation.
Comprehensive Built-in Connectivity
Rear panel access to rear-input connectors, remote control interfaces (GPIB, USB 2.0, and LXI/Ethernet), a D-sub 9-pin digital I/O port (for internal/external trigger signals and handler control), instrument interlock connector, and TSP-Link connectors make it simple to configure multiple instrument test solutions and eliminate the need to invest in additional adapter accessories.
Convert Raw Data to Information
A full graphical plotting window converts raw data and displays it immediately as useful information, such as semiconductor I-V curves and waveforms. Using the 2470's Sheet view, test data can also be displayed in tabular form. The instrument supports exporting data to a spreadsheet for further analysis, dramatically improving productivity for research, benchtop testing, device qualification, and debugging.
TriggerFlow Building Blocks for Instrument Control and Execution
The 2470 incorporates Keithley's TriggerFlow triggering system, which provides user control of instrument execution. TriggerFlow diagrams are created in much the same way that flow charts are developed, using four building blocks:
• Wait - Waits for an event to occur before the flow continues
• Branch - Branches when a condition has been satisfied
• Action - Initiates an action in the instrument, for example, measure, source, delay, set digital I/O, etc.
• Notify - Notifies other equipment that an event has occurred
A TriggerFlow model using a combination of these building blocks can be created from the front panel or by sending remote commands. With the TriggerFlow system, users can build triggering models from very simple to complex with up to 255 block levels. The 2470 also includes basic triggering functions, including immediate, timer, and manual triggering.
Unmatched System Integration and Programming Flexibility
When a 2470 is configured into a multi-channel I-V test system, its embedded Test Script Processor (TSP) allows it to run test scripts, so users can create powerful measurement applications with significantly-reduced development times. TSP technology also offers channel expansion without a mainframe. Keithley's TSP-Link channel expansion bus can connect multiple 2470s and other TSP instruments, including Keithley's other graphical SourceMeter instruments (2450, 2460, 2461), Keithley's DMM7510, DMM6500, and DAQ6510 graphical multimeters, Series 2600B System SourceMeter SMU instruments, and Series 3700A Switch/Multimeter systems, in a master-subordinate configuration that operates as one integrated system. The TSP-Link expansion bus supports up to 32 units per GPIB or IP address, making it easy to scale a system to fit an application's particular requirements.
Parallel Test Capability
The TSP technology in the 2470 supports testing multiple devices in parallel to meet the needs of device research, advanced semiconductor lab applications, and even high throughput production test. This parallel testing capability allows each instrument in the system to run its own complete test sequence, creating a fully multi-threaded test environment. The number of tests that can be run in parallel on a graphical SourceMeter can be as high as the number of instruments in the system.
Instrument Control Start-up Software
KickStart instrument control/start-up software enable users to start making measurements in minutes without programming. In most cases, users merely need to make some quick measurements, graph the data, and store the data to disk for later analysis in software environments such as Excel. KickStart offers:
• Instrument configuration control to perform I-V characterization
• Native X-Y graphing, panning, and zooming
• Spreadsheet/tabular viewing of data
• Saving and exporting of data for further analysis
• Saving of test setups
• Screenshot capturing of graphs
• Annotating of tests
• Command line dialog for sending and receiving data
• HTML help
• GPIB, USB 2.0, Ethernet compliance
Simplified Programming with Ready-to-Use Instrument Drivers
For those who prefer to create their own customized application software, native National Instruments LabVIEW drivers, and IVI-C and IVICOM drivers are available.
