SourceMeter

®

Instrument to banana test leads.

WARNING Maximum floating (common mode) voltage for a SMU is 250V. Exceed-

ing this level could damage the instrument and create a shock hazard.

Using an external source to float a SMU could create a shock hazard
in the test circuit. A shock hazard exists whenever >42V peak is
present in the test circuit.

NOTE

If applicable, remove terminal block(s) before using the Model 2600-BAN.
The Model 2602 can use two terminal blocks (one for each SMU channel),
and the Model 2601 has one terminal block for the single SMU.

A terminal block can be removed from the rear panel by loosening the two
captive retaining screws and pulling them off the rear panel.

When the Model 2600-BAN is connected to the SMU connection, input/output
LO can be connected to chassis ground by inserting the white banana jack to
the rear panel chassis ground banana jack ( Figure 2 ).
