Semiconductor Device Analyzer
Keysight B1500A Semiconductor
Device Analyzer of Precision Cur-
rent-Voltage Analyzer Series is an
all in one analyzer supporting IV, CV,
pulse/dynamic IV and more, which is
designed for all-round characterization
from basic to cutting-edge appli-
cations. It provides a wide range of
measurement capabilities
to cover the electrical characterization
and evaluation of devices, materials,
semiconductors, active/passive com-
ponents, or virtually any other type of
electronic device with uncompromised
measurement reliability and eficiency.
In addition, the B1500A’s modular
architecture with ten available slots
allows you to add or upgrade measure-
ment modules if your measurement
needs change over time.
Keysight EasyEXPERT group+ GUI
based characterization software
is available either on the B1500A’s
embedded Windows 7 platform with
15-inch touch screen or on your PC to
accelerate the characterization tasks.
It supports eficient and repeatable
device characterization in the entire
characterization process from measure-
ment setup and execution to analysis
and data management either interactive
manual operation or automation across
a wafer in conjunction with a semi-
automatic wafer prober. EasyEXPERT
group+ makes it easy to perform com-
plex device characterization immediate-
ly with hundreds of ready-to-use mea-
surements (application tests) furnished,
and allows you the option of storing test
condition and measurement data auto-
matically after each measurement in a
unique built-in database (workspace),
ensuring that valuable information is
not lost and that measurements can
be repeated at a later date. Keysight
B1500A provides the complete solution
for device characterization with these
versatile capabilities.
