Introduction Front Panel

Front Panel

The Agilent B2200 series provides the front panel keys, the LCD, and the LED matrix display for the status monitor and connection setup.
Line switch
Used to turn the Agilent B2200 on or off.
•LCD
Used to monitor the status and set the connection. See Chapter 3 for the details.
Front panel keys
Used to set the Agilent B2200. See Chapter 3 for the details.
LED matrix display
Displays the status of the matrix switches. Also used to set the matrix connection with the light pen.
SMU Input
Inputs for the source monitor unit (SMU). Eight input ports. Up to four kelvin inputs are available. Triaxial BNC connector.
AUX Input
Multipurpose inputs. Six input ports. Coaxial BNC connector. CMH and CML terminals are the input ports for the capacitance measurement.
•Light Pen
Connector for the Agilent 16443A Light pen. Used to set the matrix connection with the LED matrix display.
CAUTION For the SMU Input terminals, the maximum measurement voltage/current/voltage
between terminals are ±200 V/1 A/300 V, respectively. And for the AUX Input terminals, they are ±100 V/0.5 A/100 V.
Do not apply an input signal over these limits to the input terminals. If you do, the Agilent B2200 will be damaged. If you use a bias source that has current limit capability, set the bias source current limit.

Introduction Switch Modules

Switch Modules

The Agilent B2200A and B2201A support the dedicated switch module, Agilent B2210A and B2211A, respectively.
By installing the modules, the module inputs will be connected internally to the front panel input connectors. And 12 output connectors will face the rear panel. The type of the output connectors is the triaxial BNC. Up to six kelvin outputs are available.
Image of the output terminals and the block diagram of the switch module are shown in Figure 1-3 and Figure 1-4.
Figure 1-3 Switch Module Output Terminals
WARNING Do not touch the force and guard terminals of the output connectors while the
Agilent B2200 is turned on. Dangerous voltages up to the maximum input voltage may be present at the output connectors.
NOTE Mixed configuration of the switch modules is not supported.
