f
A Boolean flag; this flag is
true
when the pulse was successfully configured,
false
when
errors were encountered
msg
A string message; if the
f
flag is
false
,
msg
contains an error message; if it is
true
,
msg
contains a string indicating successful configuration
smu
System SourceMeter
®
instrument channel (set to
smua
)
bias
Bias level in volts
level
Pulse level in volts
limit
Current limit (for example, compliance) in amperes
ton
Pulse on time in seconds
toff
Pulse off time in seconds
points
Number of pulse-measure cycles
buffer
Reading buffer where pulsed measurements will be stored; if this is
nil
when the function is
called, no measurements will be made when the pulse train is initiated
tag
Numeric identifier to be assigned to the defined pulse train
sync_in
Defines a digital I/O trigger input line; if programmed, the pulse train waits for a trigger input
before executing each pulse
sync_out
Defines a digital I/O trigger output line; if programmed, the pulse train generates a trigger
output immediately before the start of
ton
sync_in_timeout
Specifies the length of time (in seconds) to wait for input trigger; default value is 10 s
sync_in_abort
Specifies whether or not to abort pulse if input trigger is not received; if pulse aborts because
of a missed trigger, a timer timeout message is returned;
true
or
false
Details
Data for pulsed current measurements are stored in the reading buffer specified by the
buffer
input parameter.
This function configures a voltage pulse train with a current measurement at each point. Measurements are
made at the end of the
ton
time.
This function does not cause the specified
smu
to output a pulse train. It does check to see if all the pulse
dimensions can be achieved, and if they can, assigns the indicated
tag
or index to the pulse train.
