Installation

Model 100/200: To Connect 16495

The available connector plates are listed in Table 2-1. For connector plate installation

information, refer to Agilent 16495 Installation Guide.

For the connections between the instruments and the connector plate, use the measurement

cables listed in

Table 2-2 and Table 2-3, and connect them to the appropriate connectors.

For the connections over the connector plate, see the following tables.

• Table 2-4 shows the GNDU output connections over the connector plate.

• Table 2-5 shows the SMU output connections over the connector plate.

• Table 2-6 shows the AUX output connections over the connector plate.

Also make the interlock circuit and connect it to the instrument’s Interlock terminal. For

details, see

“To Make an Interlock Circuit” on page 2-11. The Agilent E5270B/4155C/

4156C provides the interlock function. If the interlock terminal is open, the instrument

cannot force high voltage more than ±42 V.

NOTE Making non-Kelvin connection

The Force terminals can be used to force and measure DC voltage or current. If you want to

simplify the cable connections, open the Sense terminals and connect the Force terminals

only to the connector plate by using the triaxial cables.

If you make the kelvin connection, use both Force and Sense terminals. Connecting the

Force and Sense lines together at the terminal of the device under test minimizes the

measurement error caused by the residual resistance of the connection cables. The kelvin

connection is effective for the low resistance measurement and the high current

measurement.

Option Item

1. Option 001 provides the through connectors except for the Interlock connector that provides the solder-

ing patterns at the back side. For the option 002, the back of each connector is designed for soldering.
