The Keithley 220 Programmable Current Source delivers precision current sourcing from 1 nA to 100 mA across selectable ranges, with 1 nA resolution and ±0.05% accuracy plus 10 nA offset. Built for automated test workflows, this instrument combines programmable control via IEEE-488 GPIB with manual front-panel operation, enabling rapid integration into complex measurement systems. Output impedance exceeds 1 GΩ in parallel with less than 100 pF capacitance, ensuring minimal loading effects on low-current devices. Compliance voltage adjusts from 0 V to 10 V. After a 30-minute warm-up, drift remains below 0.01% per hour, supporting characterization tasks demanding exceptional stability and resolution.
