and insights into power consump-
tion by enabling engineers to see
the complete current waveform they
have never seen before, from nA to
A, in one pass and one picture.
Designed for both R&D and Automated
Test Environments (ATE)
The new SMUs are a part of the
N6700 modular power system,
which consists of the N6700 low-
profile mainframes for ATE and
the N6705 DC power analyzer
mainframe for R&D. The product
family has four mainframes and
more than 25 DC power modules to
choose from providing a complete
spectrum of solutions, from R&D
through design validation and
manufacturing.
Key features
Apply to all models unless other-
wise noted
• Seamless, dynamic measurements
down to nA and μV (N6781A and
N6782A only)
• Glitch-free operation – change
sourcing ranges or measurement
ranges without any glitches
• Four current programming
ranges – precisely source current
down to μA (N6784A only)
• Excellent transient response
for stable output voltage with
dynamic loads
• 2-quadrant operation – use as
an advanced power supply or
electronic load (N6781A and
N6782A only)
• 4-quadrant operation – use as
an advanced bipolar power supply
or bipolar electronic load
(N6784A only)
• Stable operation with capacitive
loads up to 150 μF

Load transient response time – voltage priority
In the 20 V output range: the time to recover to within the settling band for a load change from
0.1 A to 0.5 A.
In the 6 V output range: the time to recover to within the settling band for a load change from 0.1 A to 1.5 A.
