PXI-4132 Handshaking with DMM

Code and Documents

Attachment

This example demonstrates how the PXI-4132 Precision SMU can be used to source voltage points in a sequence and handshake with a DMM so that both instruments can measure the output.

How the handshaking works:
For this example the SMU is the master device and the DMM is the slave.
1. The SMU generates an output, measures it, and then sends a trigger to the DMM to return a measurement.
2. Once DMM measurement is complete, a trigger is sent back to the SMU to generate another output step in its sequence.

Refer to the Multipoint Acquisition block diagram in the help file for more information on DMM triggering.
