16441A R-BOX
The 16441A R-BOX adds a selectable
series resistor to the SMU output. You can
select the resistor from the setup page,
and the voltage drop due to the series
resistor is automatically compensated for
in the measurement result.
Measurement limitations with the 4155C
and 4156C and R-BOX:
If you measure device characteristics
including negative resistance over 1
MΩ with the 4155C/4156C and R-BOX,
there is a possibility that they cannot
be measured. There is a possibility that
the 4155C and 4156C cannot perform
measurements because of DUT oscil-
lations even with the R-BOX. Whether
oscillation occurs or not depends upon
the DUT and measurement conditions.
Number of SMU channels that can add a
resistor: 2
Resistor values:
1 MΩ, 100 kΩ, 10 kΩ, 0 Ω (each channel)
Resistance accuracy:
0.3% (at 23 °C ±5 °C, between input/
output terminal)
Maximum voltage: 200 V
Maximum current: 1 A (0 Ω selected)
Kelvin connection: Kelvin connection is
effective only when 0 Ω is selected.

Specifi cation Condition
The “supplemental information”
and “typical” entries in the following speci-
fi cations are not warranted, but provide
useful information about the functions and
performance of the instruments (23 °C ±5
°, 50% RH).
16440A SMU/Pulse Generator
Selector
The 16440A switches either an SMU or
PGU to the associated output port. You
can expand to 4 channels by adding an
additional 16440A. The channel 1 PGU port
provides a “PGU OPEN” function, which
can disconnect the PGU by opening a
semiconductor relay. The 16440A cannot
work without two pulse generator units of
the 41501A/B (SMU and Pulse Generator
Expander).
Channel confi gurations:
Two channels (CH1, CH2)
