Demo Guide

Introduction

The Keysight B2960A 6.5 Digit Low Noise Power Source is a bench-top power supply

with revolutionary capabilities and functions not previously available. It can generate

either voltage or current with 6.5 digits of resolution while also monitoring them, which is

essential for a variety of measurement applications.

It also has an arbitrary waveform generation function that allows it to generate current/

voltage waveforms in formats such as sinusoid, square, trapezoid, ramp, triangle, and

exponential. In addition to these commonly used waveforms, user-dened arbitrary

waveforms with up to 100,000 points can be specied. These exible output capabilities

permit more thorough evaluation of circuits/devices/samples than are possible with

other instruments such as power supplies and sources.

This demonstration guide highlights the excellent pulsed signal output function and the

triggering capability via the B2960A series’ digital I/O signal port. The methodology

involves setting the pulse response of the B2960A series source to an external trigger

signal from a device-under- test (DUT). For example, the B2960A can be programmed

to respond to an external trigger with 2 V pulses with a 300 μs pulse delay and 200 μs

pulse width. Real-time waveform monitoring is possible by adding an oscilloscope to the

test setup.

Required Instrument and Accessories

All of the accessories required to perform the demos described in this demonstration guide

are provided in a demo kit that is included with Keysight B2962A demo units except for the

N1294A-031 and an oscilloscope. The kit includes items such as a Combo Test Lead Kit, and

a resistor.

Concept

Figure 1 illustrates the connection diagram and basic setup conditions used in the demo

to make the B2960A series generate pulses whenever it receives an external trigger sig-

nal. Use the settings shown below to program the B2960A source. Connect an oscillo-

scope to the test setup to monitor the results.

Figure 1. Connection diagram and basic condition

Figure 2 shows the parameters used to dene the timing parameters of the pulses from

the instrument’s front panel. Once these parameters have been specied, the source

value is output immediately after pressing . Next, after conguring an appropriate

trigger condition and initiating the channel, the instrument will be ready to receive an

external trigger signal and generate pulsed output.

Figure 3 shows the external trigger signal requirements to initiate device action on the

B2960A series. Positive or negative logic can be used.

Objective

This demo illustrates the ability of

a B2960A series power source to

respond to an external trigger with

pre-specied settings: Pulse voltage,

pulse delay and pulse width

Procedure

1. Change View mode to Channel 1

Single View

2. Congure the pulse condition

3. Congure the trigger condition

4. Disable an internal source wait time

5. Initiate the channel to wait for an

external trigger signal

6. (Optional) Abort the channel to stop

waiting for an external trigger signal

Demonstration
