ekpy.control.instruments.keithley2400.core.config_voltage_pulse(k2400, nplc: float = 0.01, amplitude: float = 5)

Configure for Voltage pulse. nplc=.01 gives ~1.5ms pulse nplc=.1 is ~7ms pulse

Parameters

  • k2400 (pyvisa.instrument) – K2400

  • nplc (float) – (.01, 10) power line cycles to specify speed

  • amplitude (float) – Voltage amplitude in volts

Examples

k24 = pyvisa.ResourceManager().open_resource(<GBIP>)
config_voltage_pulse(k24, amplitude=10) # configure 10V pulse
enable_source(k24) # start the source
read(k24) # apply the pulse
