Source measure unit in grid background

50 mA to 10 A Source Measure Units

The 50 mA to 10 A Source Measure Unit range delivers precision current sourcing in that specified range with synchronized voltage measurement for accurate device characterization across low and high-power regimes. Designed for pulsed operation, it supports microsecond-level transient response and controlled duty cycling to reduce self-heating during high-current tests. Low-noise digitization enables measurement sensitivity down to millivolt-level voltage changes and microamp-level current variations, ensuring repeatable I-V characterization of semiconductor and power devices.
