Introduction

Front Panel

Front Panel

The Agilent B2200 series provides the front panel keys, the LCD, and the LED matrix display for the status monitor and connection setup.

•Line switch

Used to turn the Agilent B2200 on or off.

•LCD

Used to monitor the status and set the connection. See Chapter 3 for the details.

•Front panel keys

Used to set the Agilent B2200. See Chapter 3 for the details.

•LED matrix display

Displays the status of the matrix switches. Also used to set the matrix connection with the light pen.

• SMU Input

Inputs for the source monitor unit (SMU). Eight input ports. Up to four kelvin inputs are available. Triaxial BNC connector.

• AUX Input

Multipurpose inputs. Six input ports. Coaxial BNC connector. CMH and CML terminals are the input ports for the capacitance measurement.

The input port 12 (AUX Input 12) is the default ground input port. If you assign the port as the ground input port, this ground port will be internally connected to the ground when the ground mode is set to ON. In this case, open this connector.

•Light Pen

Connector for the Agilent 16443A Light pen. Used to set the matrix connection with the LED matrix display.

For the SMU Input terminals, the maximum measurement voltage/current/voltage between terminals are ±200 V/1 A/300 V, respectively. And for the AUX Input terminals, they are ±100 V/0.5 A/100 V.

Do not apply an input signal over these limits to the input terminals. If you do, the Agilent B2200 will be damaged. If you use a bias source that has current limit capability, set the bias source current limit.
