The Keysight N6781A is a 2-quadrant Source/Measure Unit (SMU) engineered for precision sourcing and measurement in applications requiring simultaneous voltage and current control with high accuracy. It sources positive and negative voltage and current while measuring both parameters across multiple ranges, making it ideal for battery drain analysis and dynamic device characterization. The module integrates into the N6700 or N6705 platform as a single-slot instrument, enabling multi-channel test systems with synchronized measurements.
