Touch, Test, Invent™ to Get More I-V Testing Done in Less Time

08/26/2013

The new Keithley Model 2450 Touchscreen Source Measure Unit (SMU) Instrument is ideal for I-V functional test and characterization of a wide range of today's modern electronic devices, including scaled semiconductors, nano-scale devices and materials, organic /printed electronics and other current and voltage testing applications.

Whether you’re new to Source-Measure Unit (SMU) instruments or have been using them for years, the 2450 SMU eliminates the hassles associated with today’s I-V testing solutions. Its advanced touchscreen and simple menu structure make it so intuitively easy to setup and use; you can start making measurements quickly without wasting valuable time paging through a manual and learning how to use the instrument. Plus, you’ll appreciate the flexibility and application versatility that makes the 2450 ideal for I-V functional test and characterization of a wide range of today’s modern devices, including:

• Semiconductors
• LEDs
• Solar Cells
• Nanomaterials and Devices
• Graphene
• Printed/Flexible Electronics
• Batteries/Electrochemistry
• Sensors
• Biotechnology

Learn Faster, Work Smarter, Invent Easier

The 2450 SMU Instrument is an innovative, compact I-V solution that offers the capabilities of analyzers, curve tracers, and I-V systems at a fraction of their cost.

• An interactive, capacitive touchscreen enables a superior user experience: Easy to learn; simple to use; faster speed to answer.
• Source and measure voltage, current, and resistance in one tightly-coupled instrument.
• The graphical interface provides I-V curve tracing functionality for much less than the cost of traditional curve tracers.
• Extended low-level voltage, current, and resistance capabilities give the 2450 the application versatility to truly make it the SMU for everyone.

All this, combined with proven Keithley SMU precision and accuracy, equip the 2450 for today’s challenges as well as those yet to evolve. This integrated I-V instrument is a sound investment for the future that’s affordable today. With its intuitive user experience, performance, and versatility, the 2450 will be the favorite go-to instrument in your lab now and for years to come.

The 2450 takes a giant step for test and measurement into today’s world of state of the art smart technology. Unlike conventional instruments that have dedicated pushbutton technology and small, obscure, limited-character displays, the 2450 features an advanced, full-color, five-inch capacitive touchscreen with multi-point, pan-pinch-zoom-swipe operation that is incredibly easy to use right from power-on. A built-in, context-sensitive help system minimizes the need to page through a manual to learn the instrument and develop your measurement applications. A new, icon-based menu system eliminates the cumbersome, multi-layer menu structures typically used on soft key-based instruments, so you’re ready to make measurements in just two configuration steps, further optimizing overall speed and productivity.
