Keithley Instruments 2425 Overview

The Model 2425 100W SourceMeter® extends the voltage range of the 2420 to 100V, enabling 100W capability in the 1A range. Like the Model 2420 High Current SourceMeter, it also offers a 3A range with 60W power capability. The Model 2425 was designed for production testing of medium-power devices like DC-to-DC converters, power supplies, and other components requiring between 60W and 100W of total DC power. Keithley's SourceMeter family is designed specifically for test applications that demand tightly coupled, precision voltage and current sourcing and measurement. By acting as a V-Source, I-Source, V-Meter, I-Meter and ohmmeter, each Series 2400 instrument functions as compact, single-channel, DC parametric tester. These half-rack instruments are invaluable for a wide range of design and production applications because they conserve precious rack real estate, and lower the overall cost and complexity of using multiple instruments. Built-in math functionality can derive parameters and mathematical formulas. A digital I/O interface can speed up production testing by linking the 2400 to popular component handlers for tight systems integration in binning, sorting, and similar applications. Advanced features such as 6-wire ohms measurement and guarding expand the versatility of the 2400 Series to handle production testing of a wide range of resistive devices The 2400 line features Keithley's unique Trigger-Link interface for seamless integration of Series 7000 switching hardware to produce complete, multipoint test solutions. The optional Contact Check function verifies test connections easily in just 350µs to maximize test integrity.
