Report Value (Report Voltage or Measure Voltage)
If Voltage is selected, Report Value determines which voltage values are recorded in the Analyze
spreadsheet. You can select:
•
Programmed:
Requested voltage values are recorded. For example, if you specified a voltage of
2.5 V, the reported value is 2.5 V, even if the measured value is 2.4997 V.
•
Measured:
Recorded voltage values are actual measured values. For example, if you specified a
voltage of 2.5 V, the actual measured value, such as 2.4997 V, is recorded. The measured mode
increases the measurement time because it requires an additional analog-to-digital (A/D)
conversion.
Report Value (Measure Current or Report Current)
The Report Value setting determines which current values are recorded in the Analyze spreadsheet.
You can select:
•
Programmed:
Requested current values are recorded. For example, if you specified a current of
10 mA, the reported value is 10 mA, even if the measured value is 9.9982 mA.
•
Measured:
Recorded voltage values are actual measured values. For example, if you specified a
current of 10 mA, the actual measured value, such as 9.9982 mA, is recorded. The Measured
mode increases the measurement time because it requires an additional analog-to-digital (A/D)
conversion.
Report Status (SMU)
When this option is selected, Clarius records measurement status information when the test
executes. A column of the Analyze spreadsheet displays this information. Hover over a cell to review
the information. An example of the status information is displayed in the following figure.
