Measurement Mode Details
Spot measurement mode
Outputs and measures voltage and
current.
Staircase sweep measurement mode
Outputs swept voltage or current,
and measures dc voltage or current.
One channel can sweep current or
voltage while up to eight channels
can measure current or voltage. A
second channel can be synchronized
with the primary sweep channel as an
additional voltage or current sweep
source. Linear or log sweeps can be
performed.
Number of steps: 1 – 1,001
Hold time: 0 – 655.35 s,
1 ms resolution
Delay time: 0 – 65.5350 s,
100 µs resolution
Multi-channel sweep measurement
mode
Outputs swept voltage or current, and
measures dc voltage or current. Up to
eight channels can sweep current or
voltage and up to eight channels can
measure current or voltage. Linear or
log sweeps can be performed.
Number of steps: 1– 1,001
Hold time: 0 – 655.35 s,
1 ms resolution
Delay time: 0 – 65.5350 s,
100 µs resolution
Pulsed spot measurement mode
Outputs a voltage or current pulse
and measures dc voltage or current.
Pulse width: 500 µs to 100 ms,
100 µs resolution
Pulse period: 5 ms to 1 s
(≥ pulse width + 4 ms),
100 µs resolution
Maximum pulse duty: 50 %
Pulsed sweep measurement mode
Outputs pulsed swept voltage or
current, and measures dc voltage or
current. A second channel can be pro-
grammed to output a staircase sweep
voltage or current synchronized with
the pulsed sweep output.
Staircase sweep with pulsed bias
measurement mode
Outputs swept voltage or current,
and measures dc voltage or current.
A second channel can be programmed
to output a pulsed bias voltage or
current. A third channel can be
synchronized with the primary sweep
channel as an additional voltage or
current sweep source.
Quasi-pulsed spot measurement mode
Outputs quasi-pulsed voltage and
measures dc voltage or current.
Linear search measurement mode
Outputs and measure voltage or
current by using linear search method.
Binary search measurement mode
Outputs and measure voltage or
current by using binary search method.
Time Stamp
The E5260A supports a time stamp
function utilizing an internal quartz
clock.
Resolution: 100 µs
Program Memory
The E5260A mainframe contains
(volatile) memory that can be used
to increase test measurement
throughput. Program memory allows
the storage of program code in the
E5260A, eliminating the need to
communicate over the GPIB interface.
In addition, input data can be passed
to code sequences stored in program
memory.
Maximum lines of storable code:
40,000
Maximum number of program
sequences: 2,000
Output Data Buffer
The number of data points that can
be stored in the data buffer varies
with the choice of the output data
format.
Minimum number of storable data
Points: 34,034
