The Model 2450 is Keithley’s next-generation SourceMeter source measure unit (SMU) Instrument that truly brings Ohm’s law (current, voltage, and resistance) testing right to your fingertips. Its innovative graphical user interface (GUI) and advanced, capacitive touchscreen technology allow intuitive usage and minimize the learning curve to enable engineers and scientists to learn faster, work smarter, and invent easier. The 2450 is the SMU for everyone: a versatile instrument, particularly well-suited for characterizing modern scaled semiconductors, nano-scale devices and materials, organic semiconductors, printed electronics, and other small-geometry and low-power devices. All this combined with Keithley SMU precision and accuracy allow users to Touch, Test, Invent™ with the new favorite go-to instrument in the lab for years to come.
Learn Faster, Work Smarter, Invent Easier
Unlike conventional instruments with dedicated pushbutton technology and small, obscure, limited-character displays, the 2450 features a five-inch, full-color, high resolution touchscreen that facilitates ease of use, learning, and optimizes overall speed and productivity. A simple icon-based menu structure reduces configuration steps by as much as 50 percent and eliminates the cumbersome multi-layer menu structures typically used on soft-key instruments. Built-in, context-sensitive help enables intuitive operation and minimizes the need to review a separate manual. These capabilities combined with its application versatility make the 2450 the SMU instrument inherently easy to use for basic and advanced measurement applications, regardless of your experience level with SMU instruments.
Testers will be selected on the basis of quality of applications: we expect a full and complete description of why you want to test this particular product.
Testers are required to produce a full, comprehensive and well thought out review within 2 months of receipt of the product.
Failure to provide this review within the above timescale will result in the enrolee being excluded from future Road Tests.
Firstly, many thanks for all the applications that have been sent in. It hasn't been easy to make a choice. However, after careful consideration, we have selected the following applicants for this RoadTest:
Stuart Clarke
Tracy Hooker
Robin Renzetti
Many thanks to all who applied; I encourage those who weren't successful this time to apply again.
Looks Like Something I would be interested in. Also I Would Need one of these to help me get started with my Carrier of choicewhich is createing, modifying and fixing electronics similar to Ben heck from The Ben heck show
Question: Do I have to be 18+ to test out this SMU?
I wanted to say this looks like a nice piece of gear but Elemt14 sent me an email saying that my comment was rejected... Anyway's hopefully they get the message this is a sweet instrument that I would love to try out.
