Source measurement unit (SMU)

Test & measurement Source Measurement Unit (SMU) integrated circuits and reference designs

Description

Our integrated circuits and reference designs help to create high precision source measurement units (SMU) for accurate testing and characterization of semiconductors or other devices.

New generation source measurement units require:

High voltage, current source and measurement capabilities.
High accuracy force and measurement capabilities with wide dynamic range.
Intuitive interface to adjust parameters and monitor agent usage.
Pulse mode support to eliminate device self-heating.
