Keithley's SourceMeter family is designed specifically for test applications
that demand tightly coupled sourcing and measurement. All SourceMeter models
provide precision voltage and current sourcing as well as measurement
capabilities. Each SourceMeter instrument is both a highly stable DC power
source and a true instrument-grade 5 1/2-digit multimeter. The power source
characteristics include low noise, precision, and readback. The multimeter
capabilities include high repeatability and low noise. The result is a compact,
single-channel, DC parametric tester. In operation, these instruments can act
as a voltage source, a current source, a voltage meter, a current meter, and an
ohmmeter. Manufacturers of components and modules for the communications,
semiconductor, computer, automotive, and medical industries will find the
SourceMeter instruments invaluable for a wide range of characterization and
production test applications.
The Model 2430-C 1kW Pulse SourceMeter offers the same DC source and
measurement ranges as the Model 2425 100W SourceMeter, plus a unique 1kW pulse
mode that extends the upper current limit to 10A. This mode makes the Model
2430-C ideal for measuring the breakdown voltage of many types of high-power
devices, including multi-layer varistors (MLVs) and semiconductor components.
During production testing of these devices, breakdown voltage is often measured
under a high current pulse of up to 10A. The Model 2430-C combines programmable
bipolar voltage and current sourcing of up to 10A @ 100V (pulsed) with all the
high-speed testing capabilities common to the Series 2400 family. The Model
2430-C can be programmed to produce individual pulses or pulse trains up to 5ms
wide and with varying duty cycle on most source ranges. Pulses up to 2.5ms long
and an 8% duty cycle can be programmed on the instrument's 1kW range. When
combined with a PC controller and the appropriate switching hardware, the Model
2430-C provides an economical, high-throughput solution for high-power device testing,
all in one compact, half-rack box. Other solutions offering compatible
capabilities, such as discrete semiconductor component testers, typically cost
four times as much as the Model 2430-C and require significantly more rack
space. The Contact Check function makes it simple to maximize test integrity by
verifying test connections easily in just 350 Micros before an automated test
sequence begins. This eliminates measurement errors and false product failures
associated with contact fatigue, breakage, contamination, loose or broken
connection, relay failures, etc.
