Section 6: Clarius Model 4200A-SCS Parameter Analyzer Reference Manual6-312 4200A-901-01 Rev. C / February 2017KI590ulib user libraryThe user modules in the KI590ulib user library are used to control the 590 C-V Analyzer. Theseuser modules are summarized in the table below. Also listed in the table are names of the user testmodules (UTMs) and actions in Clarius that use the user modules.KI590ulib user modulesUser module UTM or action name DescriptionCableCompensate590 (on page B-12)cable-compensate inthe ivcvswitch projectPerforms cable compensation using knowncapacitance source values.Cmeas590 (on page B-14) 590-cmeas Makes a single capacitance measurement.CtSweep590 (on page B-17) 590-ctsweep Makes a capacitance versus timemeasurement.CvPulseSweep590 (on page B-21) 590-cvpulsesweep Makes capacitance versus voltagemeasurements using a pulse sweep.CvSweep590 (on page B-27) 590-cvsweep Makes capacitance versus voltagemeasurements using a staircase sweep.DisplayCableCompCaps590 (on pageB-31)display-cap-file inthe ivcvswitch projectPlaces capacitance source values in aspreadsheet.LoadCableCorrectionConstants (onpage B-33)n/a Reads the cable compensation parameters forthe range and frequency specified from thecable compensation file and sends theseparameters to the 590.SaveCableCompCaps590 (on pageB-34)save-cap-file in theivcvswitch projectSaves entered capacitance source values in afile.KI595ulib user libraryThe user modules in the KI595ulib user library are used to perform Q/t sweeps and C-V sweepsusing the Keithley Instruments 595 Quasistatic C-V Meter. These user modules are summarized inthe table below.KI595ulib user modulesUser module DescriptionCVsweep595 Performs a quasistatic C-V sweep between the start voltage and the stopvoltage. The data returned is the source voltage, measured capacitance, Q/tcurrent, and timestamp on each measurement.QTSweep595 Makes 20 Q/t current and capacitance measurements with various time delaysthat are spaced between 0.07 s and the maximum delay. You can analyze andplot the resulting values to determine the optimum delay time to use during theC-V sweep. The optimum delay time is the time when Q/t reaches the systemleakage level.
