Features
Selectable hardware architecture:
You can select any voltage and current unit required for your measurement to suit your application.
HV unit
The HV unit is a high voltage unit of 2kV and 5kV. DC or PULSE wave can be selected. Also you can select the constant voltage or constant current drive measurement.

Minimum current resolution 250fA
The use of triaxial and the optimization of the measurement system has reduced leakage and noise in the equipment, so the stable measurement of very small currents canbe performed.
Flexible GATE signal output
The gate signal can be sequenced and applied.
Hold Time Time variable range 0.000[s]～ 5.000[s]
GATE voltage variable range -40[V] ～ +40[V]
Hysteresis measurement
CS-8000 is useful for measuring wideband-gap semiconductors such as SiC and GaN with hysteresis.
“Double sweep function” simultaneously displays up sweep and down sweep, allowing for hysteresis observation.
You can adjust the amplitude and time to allow any gate pattern input. Also a preliminary signal enables to be applied to the gate.
Devices with hysteresis can be measured under multiple conditions.
Configuration for various experiment
The graphical display of the measurement configuration makes easy to set various settings.
The test fixture CS-322 automatically switches the internal matrix switch to match the configuration settings, eliminating the need for a wiring swap. It is also not necessary to switch the connection between HV and HC units manually. Because the internal relay automatically switches through the configuration settings. These functions prevent incorrect wiring during measurement.
UI designed for ease of use
The 12.1 inch Touch Screen, front panel buttons and rotary knob provide intuitive operation. The on-screen keyboard on the screen and the numeric keypad on the front panel allow you to enter settings, limit values, and so on. To enable operation by USB mouse/keyboard.
Temperature characteristic measurement
Evaluation of temperature characteristics is required for targets used in high and low temperature environments during actual operation.
CS-8000 can be used in combination with hotplate and ThermoStream to measure temperature characteristics.
The use of ThermoStream requires test fixture and adapters.
Automatic measurement is also available with software.
