Calibration
The Calibration window is opened by clicking the Calibration button, and is used to
perform the self-calibration, SMU current offset cancel, CMU data correction, and
so on.
• “Module Self Calibration”
• “SMU Zero Cancel”
• “CMU Calibration”
Module Self Calibration
The Module Self Calibration tab screen is used to perform the self-calibration of
modules. Check the left check box of Name to select the module for self-calibration.
Open the measurement terminals at the cable end before performing the
self-calibration.

Check
this box to enable the 1 pA range calibration of the HRSMU/ASU.
If you do not use the 1 pA range, uncheck this box. The B1500A does not perform
the 1 pA range offset data meas
