Output-Off Status
Output-Off Status
The output-off status is the condition which is set on the source/measure unit (SMU)
automatically, immediately after its output is turned off. The status must be specified
before enabling the source output. The available conditions are shown in
Table 6-1
To set the output-off status, see “Output Connection dialog box” on page 4-25.
Table 6-1 Output-Off State
NOTE This setting is not applied to the output-off process triggered by the emergency
condition such as the over voltage/current protection, interlock open, and over
temperature protection. Then the output voltage is immediately set to 0 V and the
output switch is set to off.
