Keithley 4200-PA PreAmp
The Keithley 4200-PA PreAmp is an essential accessory for extending low current measurement capabilities within the Keithley 4200 SCS (System Control System). Achieving an impressive resolution of 0.1fA, this advanced PreAmp module significantly enhances the measurement functionality of any SMU (Source Measurement Unit) in the system. With its ability to add five distinct current ranges, the 4200-PA seamlessly integrates into the existing setup, making it appear as though the SMU possesses greater measurement resolution.
Designed for versatile application, the Remote PreAmp is conveniently shipped installed on the back panel of the Model 4200-SCS for straightforward, local operation. This thoughtful installation allows for conventional cabling to connect with various configurations such as probers, test fixtures, or switch matrices. However, for specialized requirements, users have the flexibility to detach the PreAmp and relocate it to a remote site, such as within a light-tight enclosure or directly on the prober platen. This adaptability helps eliminate measurement inaccuracies that often occur due to long cable runs.
To further enhance user experience and operational efficiency, platen mounts and triax panel mount accessories are readily available to support the installation of the Remote PreAmp. Each unit is manufactured to maintain systematic organization, with remote PreAmps installed at the factory in numerical order—e.g., SMU1, SMU2, SMU3, and so forth—corresponding to the specified number of PreAmps.
Unlock the full potential of your low current measurements with the powerful capabilities of the Keithley 4200-PA PreAmp.
