It functions as a voltage source, current source, voltmeter, ammeter, and ohmmeter in one compact half-rack chassis. What is the Keithley 2400 used for? The 2400 is used to source voltage or current while simultaneously measuring the resulting current, voltage, or resistance - the core task of I-V (current-voltage) characterization. It is applied to discrete semiconductors, ICs, laser diodes and LEDs, photodetectors, circuit-protection devices, connectors, and relays. How does it work in a test system? By linking source and measurement circuitry in one unit, the 2400 reduces GPIB traffic, simplifies remote programming, and protects the device under test through programmable compliance limits that clamp the source at a set level. Standard, logarithmic, and custom sweeps plus a 100-point Source Memory list let it run complete test sequences without continuous computer control. Factually, the 2400 provides 0.012% basic measure accuracy at 5.5-digit resolution, delivers up to 1700 readings/second at 4.5 digits to the GPIB bus, and stores 5,000 readings in non-volatile buffer memory. Its onboard pass/fail comparator executes limit tests as fast as 500 microseconds per point, supporting fast sorting and binning in production environments. As documented in the Series 2400 literature, the line conforms to European Union directives EN 61010-1 (safety) and EN 61326-1 (EMC) and to MIL-PRF-28800F Class 3 random vibration. Keithley has been the recognized reference for precision low-level source-measure instrumentation since the Series 2400 was introduced, and it is widely used in semiconductor and materials-science laboratories. Calibration is offered as an orderable upgrade - Z540.1, ISO 17025, and Z540.3 guardbanding options are available to match a buyer's quality-system requirements. Selection insight For sub-picoamp or precision low-level I-V work, the Series 2400 SMU occupies a category where general-purpose DMMs and supplies are not substitutes. Within the family, choose by source envelope: 2400/2400-C (200 V), 2400-LV (20 V), 2410/2410-C (1100 V), 2420/2420-C (60 V, 3 A), 2425/2425-C (100 V, 100 W), 2430/2430-C (100 V, 10 A pulsed), and 2440/2440-C (40 V, 5 A).
