SXXB series source meters are the first localized source meters with high accuracy, large dynamic range and digital touch, which are built by Purcells for many years, integrating various functions such as voltage, current input/output and measurement.
With a maximum output voltage of 300V, a minimum test current resolution of 3pA, and four-quadrant operation, it is used for a wide range of electrical characterization: semiconductor ICs or components, power devices, sensors, and organic and nano-materials characterization and analysis.

Why S-Series Digital SourceMeter?
- powerful-Acts as a voltage source and or current source, and measures current and or voltage simultaneously, supporting four-quadrant operation. Can limit voltage or current output size to prevent device damage. Covers a current range of 3pA-3A 100μV-300V voltage range with measurement accuracy up to 0.03%.
- all sorts of flexibility-Support two-wire and four-wire measurement, more accurate measurement of low internal resistance; integrated linear step scan, logarithmic step scan, custom scan mode; professional l-V characteristics and semiconductor parameter test software.
- easy learn and practical-Simplifies measurement preparation for a variety of applications such as I-V and l-t/V-t curves. Capacitive touch-screen graphical user interface (GUI), providing two modes of displaying measurement results, graphical and digital, for ease of use and viewing.
All-in-one high-precision SMU for ultimate simplicity of measurement
Traditional semiconductor I-V characterization solutions are often complex and costly, requiring multiple instruments to be used in conjunction with each other to complete the test. Programming, synchronizing, connecting, measuring, and analyzing the different instruments is complex, time-consuming, and takes up a lot of test bench space.
The S-Series digital source meters can be used as stand-alone constant voltage or constant current sources, voltmeters, ammeters, and ohmmeters, as precision electronic loads, and their high-performance architecture allows them to be used as waveform generators, as well as automated current-voltage (I-V) characterization systems. This dramatically reduces the time required to develop, build, and maintain a test system, while saving valuable "space" in the test rack or test bench and reducing the overall cost of purchasing a test system.
Four-quadrant operation, either as source or load
The power supply quadrant is the quadrant map formed with the power supply output voltage as the X-axis and output current as the Y-axis. The first and third quadrants, i.e., the voltage and current are in the same direction, and the source meter supplies power to other devices, which is called the source mode; the second and fourth quadrants, i.e., the voltage and current are reversed, and other devices discharge power to the source meter, and the source meter passively absorbs the incoming current and can provide a return path for the current, which is called the trap mode.
Unlike traditional matrix power supplies, S series source meters can be selected by customers to have either high voltage and low current or low voltage and high current outputs under the same power level according to their actual needs. Different ranges are selected, and the source/trap limits of S series source meters are also different.
