Application Note Optimizing Low Current Measurements
Series with the Model 4200-SCS
Semiconductor Characterization System
Introduction
IS
FORCE HI
Many critical applications demand the ability to measure very
low currents--such as picoamps or less. These applications
include determining the gate leakage current of FETs, testing RS
sensitive nano-electronic devices, and measuring leakage current IM
of insulators and capacitors.
