Ultra-Fast I-V Module
The Model 4225-PMU Ultra Fast I-V Module is the latest addition to the growing range of instrumentation options for the Model 4200-SCS Semiconductor Characterization System. It integrates ultra-fast voltage waveform generation and signal observation capabilities into the Model 4200-SCS's already powerful test environment to deliver unprecedented I-V testing performance, expanding the system's materials, device, and process characterization potential dramatically. Just as important, it makes ultra-fast I-V sourcing and measurement as easy as making DC measurements with a traditional high resolution Source-Measure Unit (SMU).
Each plug-in Model 4225-PMU module provides two channels of integrated sourcing and measurement but occupies only a single slot in the Model 4200-SCS's nine-slot chassis. Unlike competitive solutions, each channel of the Model 4225-PMU combines high speed voltage outputs (with pulse widths ranging from 60 nanoseconds to DC) with simultaneous current and voltage measurements. With this combination of ultra high-speed voltage source and voltage and current measurement capabilities, existing Model 4200-SCS systems can be easily upgraded into a flexible measurement tool for a wide range of ultra-fast I-V test applications. Each chassis can accommodate up to four Model 4225-PMU modules, for a maximum of eight ultra-fast source and measure channels, leaving five other chassis slots free for installing other types of instrumentation. These hardware and software capabilities are also available for new Model 4200-SCS systems as factory-installed options.
Features
- Provides voltage outputs with programmable timing from 60ns to DC in 10ns steps
- Measure I and V simultaneously, at acquisition rates of up to 200 megasamples/second (MS/s)
- Choose from two voltage source ranges (±10V or ± 40V) and four current measurement ranges (800mA, 200mA, 10mA, 100µA)
- Each module provides two channels of integrated simultaneous I-V sourcing and measurement; plug in up to four modules in a single chassis for eight synchronized channels
- Model 4220-PGU Pulse Generator Unit offers a voltage-sourcing-only alternative to the Model 4225-PMU
- Optional Model 4225-RPM Remote Amplifier/Switch expands current ranges (10mA, 1mA, 100µA, 10µA, 1µA, 100nA), switches sourcing/measurement between the Model 4225-PMU, Model 4210-CVU, Model 4200-SMU, and 4210-SMU

| Model 4225-RPM |
Remote Amplifier/Switch
The optional Model 4225-RPM Remote Amplifier/Switch expands on the Model 4225-PMU's capabilities by providing four additional low current ranges, offering current sensitivity down to tens of picoamps. The Model 4225-RPM also reduces cable capacitance effects and supports switching automatically between the Model 4225-PMU, the Model 4210-CVU, and other SMU modules installed in the chassis, allowing the operator to choose the most appropriate instrument for a particular measurement task without re-cabling.
Features
- Expands current ranges (10mA, 1mA, 100µA, 10µA, 1µA, 100nA), switches sourcing/measurement between the Model 4225-PMU, Model 4210-CVU, Model 4200-SMU, and 4210-SMU

| Model 4200-PA |
Remote PreAmp Option for 4200-SMU and 4210-SMU
The low current measurement capabilities of any SMU can be extended by adding an optional Remote PreAmp (Model 4200-PA). The Model 4200-PA provides 0.1fA resolution by effectively adding five current ranges to either SMU model. The PreAmp module is fully integrated with the system; to the user, the SMU simply appears to have additional measurement resolution available. The Remote PreAmp is shipped installed on the back panel of the Model 4200-SCS for local operation. This installation allows for standard cabling to a prober, test fixture, or switch matrix. Users can remove the PreAmp from the back panel and place it in a remote location (such as in a light-tight enclosure or on the prober platen) to eliminate measurement problems due to long cables. Platen mounts and triax panel mount accessories are available. Remote PreAmps are installed at the factory in numerical order, i.e., SMU1, SMU2, SMU3 . . . up to the number of PreAmps specified.
