B1505A Power Device Analyzer/Curve Tracer Data Sheet
The Keysight Technologies, Inc. B1505A Power Device Analyzer/Curve Tracer is a single-box solution with next-generation curve tracer functionality that can ac - curately evaluate and characterize power devices at up to 10 kV and 1500 A. The B1505A is capable of handling all types of power device evaluation, with features that include a wide voltage and current range, fast pulsing capability (10 µs), µΩ level on-resistance measurement resolution and sub-pA level current measure - ment capability. In addition, an oscilloscope view permits visual verification of both current and voltage pulsed waveforms. Two independent analog-to-digital (A/D) converters on each channel support a 2 µs sampling rate for accurate monitoring of the critical timings that can affect device behavior. It can also perform fully automated capacitance measurements (such as Ciss, Coss and Crss) at high voltage biases (up to 3 kV). Moreover, it can evaluate gate charge (which is an important parameter for high frequency switching converter efficiency) at up to 3 kV as well. The B1505A with EasyEXPERT group+ software includes a curve tracer mode that combines familiar curve tracer functionality with the convenience of a PC-based instrument; this makes it easy for traditional curve-tracer users to become productive quickly. Module selector, device capaci - tance selector and Quick Test feature enable fully automated measurement on multiple parameters without the need to recable. Keysight EasyEXPERT group+ GUI based characterization software is available either on the B1505A’s embed - ded Windows 7 platform with 15-inch touch screen or on your PC to accelerate the characterization tasks. It supports efficient and repeatable device charac - terization in the entire characterization process from measurement setup and execution to analysis and data management either interactive manual operation or automation across a wafer in conjunction with a semiautomatic wafer prober. EasyEXPERT group+ makes it easy to perform complex device characterization immediately with hundreds of ready-to-use measurements (application tests) furnished, and allows you the option of storing test condition and measurement data automatically after each measurement in a unique built-in database (work - space), ensuring that valuable information is not lost and that measurements can be repeated at a later date. The net result is improved ease of use, better data analysis and simplified data management for the measurement of power devices and power circuitry. Introduction

Features
The N1267A supports fast switching between the HVSMU and HCSMU to enable the measurement of the Gallium Nitride current collapse effect. The N1267A switch requires one MCSMU in the B1505A mainframe for control. The gate of the DUT (Device Under Test) can be driven by either an MCSMU or an HCSMU. Note #1: The N1267A can only be used with the B1513B or B1503C HVSMU; it cannot be used with the B1513A HVSMU. Note #2: The N1267A does not support the two HCSMU 40 A configuration.

Next the HVSMU performs voltage measurement and the HCSMU performs I-V measurement to monitor the ON-state charac - teristics of the DUT. When making the ON-state measurement, the HVSMU is measuring voltage and both the HVSMU and HCSMU are used to measure the total current. 1 Setting value must be the ON state voltage plus 1 V or more.

The oscilloscope view (available in tracer test mode) displays measured current or voltage data versus time. The pulsed measurement waveforms appear in a separate window for easy verification of the measurement timings. This function is useful for verifying waveform timings and debugging pulsed measurements. The following modules are supported in this view: HCSMU, MCSMU, HVSMU, UHCU, HVMCU, and UHVU. The oscil- loscope view can display the pulsed waveform timings at any (user specified) sweep step of the sweep output. Sampling interval: 2 μs (HCSMU/MCSMU/UHCU/ HVMCU/UHVU) 6 μs (HVSMU) Sampling points:
2000 Sa (HCSMU/MCSMU/
UHCU/HVMCU/UHVU)
4000 Sa (HVSMU)
Marker function: Read-out for each data channel Resolution: 2 μs Data saving: Numeric: Text/CSV/XMLSS Image: EMF/BMP/JPG/PNG Quick test mode A GUI-based Quick Test mode enables you to perform test sequencing without programming. You can select, copy, rear- range and cut-and-paste any application tests with a few simple mouse clicks. Once you have selected and arranged your tests, simply click on the measurement button to begin running an automated test sequence. Application library EasyEXPERT group+ comes with over 40 application tests conveniently organized by device type, application, and technol - ogy. You can easily edit and customize the furnished application tests to fit your specific needs. Application tests are pro - vided for the following categories; they are subject to change without notice. Measurement modes and functions Operation mode: Application test mode The application test mode provides application oriented point-and-click test setup and execution. An application test can be selected from the library by device type and desired measurement, and then executed after modifying the default input parameters as needed. Classic test mode The classic test mode provides function oriented test setup and execution with the same look, feel, and terminology of the 4155/4156 user interface. In addi- tion, it improves the 4155/4156 user interface by taking full advantage of EasyEXPERT group+’s GUI features. Tracer test mode The tracer test mode offers intuitive and interactive sweep control using a rotary knob similar to a curve tracer. Just like an analog curve tracer, you can sweep in only one direction (useful for R&D device analysis) or in both directions (useful in failure analysis applications). Test set ups created in tracer test mode can be seam- lessly and instantaneously transferred to classic test mode for further detailed measurement and analysis. Each SMU can sweep using VAR1 (pri- mary sweep), VAR2 (secondary sweep), or VAR1’ (synchronous sweep). Measurement modes: The Keysight B1505A supports the following measurement modes: – IV measurement – Spot – Staircase sweep – Pulsed spot – Pulsed sweep – Staircase sweep with pulsed bias – Sampling – Multi-channel sweep – Multi-channel pulsed sweep – List sweep – Linear search1 – Binary search1 – C measurement – Spot C – CV (DC bias) sweep – Pulsed spot C – Pulsed sweep CV – C-t sampling – C-f sweep – CV (AC level) sweep – Quasi-Static CV (QSCV) 1. Supported only by FLEX commands. Sweep measurement Number of steps: 1 to 10001 (SMU), 1 to 1001 (CMU) Sweep mode: Linear or logarithmic (log) Sweep direction: Single or double sweep Hold time: 0 to 655.35 s, 10 ms resolution Recommended GPIB I/F 1. An 82350B card is highly recommended because of stability and speed. 2. USB GPIB interfaces might cause serial poll error intermittently due to the intrinsic communi- cation scheme differences. It is reported that using an even GPIB address sometimes significantly decreases the chance of the error. The NI GPIB-USB-HS is recommended for stability, and the Keysight 82357B is recommended for speed.

In case of some supplemental characteristics, humidity range is defined as 20% to 50% RH Bias hold function This function allows you to keep a source active between measurements. The source module will apply the specified bias between measurements when run- ning classic tests inside an application test, in quick test mode, or during a repeated measurement. The function ceases as soon as these conditions end or when a measurement that does not use this function is started. Current offset cancel This function subtracts the offset cur- rent from the current measurement raw data, and returns the result as the measurement data. This function is used to compensate the error factor (offset current) caused by the measurement path such as the measurement cables, manipulators, or probe card.
