Ease of Use Beyond the Touchscreen
In addition to its five-inch, color touchscreen, the 2450 front panel has many features that supplement its speed, userfriendliness, and learnability, including a USB 2.0 memory I/O port, a HELP key, a rotary navigation/control knob, a front/ rear input selector button, and banana jacks for basic bench applications. The USB 2.0 memory port supports easy data storing, saving instrument configurations, loading test scripts, and system upgrades. Plus, all front panel buttons are backlit to enhance visibility in low-light environments.
Four "Quickset" modes simplify user setup. With one touch, the instrument can be quickly configured for various operating modes without the need to configure the instrument indirectly for this operation.
Quickset modes enable fast setup and time to measurements.
Comprehensive Built-in Connectivity
Rear panel access to rear-input triax connectors, remote control interfaces (GPIB, USB 2.0, and LXI/Ethernet), D-sub 9-pin digital I/O port (for internal/external trigger signals and handler control), instrument interlock control, and TSP-Link® jacks enables easy configuration of multiple instrument test solutions and eliminates the need to invest in additional adapter accessories.
Convert Raw Data to Information
The 2450 provides a full plotting and sheet view to display sweeps, measurement data, and charting right on the screen. It also supports exporting to a spreadsheet for further analysis, dramatically improving productivity for research, bench-top testing, device qualification, and debugging.
Full data display, charting, and export to a spreadsheet lets you convert raw data to useful information.
TriggerFlow® Building Blocks for Instrument Control and Execution
The 2450 incorporates Keithley's new TriggerFlow triggering system that allows user control of instrument execution. Similar to developing a flow chart, TriggerFlow diagrams are created using four fundamental building blocks:
- Wait – Waits for an event to occur before the flow continues
- Branch – Branches when a condition has been satisfied
- Action – Initiates an action in the instrument, for example, measure, source, delay, set digital I/O, etc.
- Notify – Notifies other equipment that an event has occurred
A TriggerFlow model using a combination of these building blocks can be created from the front panel or by sending remote commands. With the TriggerFlow system, users can build triggering models from very simple to complex with up to 63 block levels. The 2450 also includes basic triggering functions, including immediate, timer, and manual triggering.
Unmatched System Integration and Programming Flexibility
When the 2450 is integrated as part of a multi-channel I-V test system, the Test Script Processor (TSP®) embedded scripting capability allows test scripts to be run by the instrument, enabling the user to create powerful measurement applications with significantly reduced development times. TSP technology also offers channel expansion without a mainframe. Keithley's TSPLink® channel expansion bus, which uses a 100 Base T Ethernet cable, connects multiple 2450 instruments and other TSP instruments such as Keithley's Series 2600B SourceMeter SMU instruments and Series 3700A Switch/ Multimeter systems in a master-subordinate configuration that behaves as one integrated system. The TSP-Link expansion bus supports up to 32 units per GPIB or IP address, making it easy to scale a system to fit an application's particular requirements.
The 2450 also includes a SCPI programming mode that optimizes the instrument's new features, as well as a SCPI 2400 mode that provides backwards compatibility with the existing 2400 SourceMeter instrument. Not only does this preserve your 2400 investment but it also eliminates re-work normally associated with upgrading to a new instrument with new capabilities.
Parallel Test Capability
With the TSP technology in the 2450, multiple devices can be tested in parallel to meet the needs of device research, advanced semiconductor lab applications, and even high throughput production test. This parallel testing capability enables each instrument in the system to run its own complete test sequence, creating a fully multi-threaded test environment. The number of tests that can be run in parallel on a 2450 can be as high as the number of instruments in the system.

- Configure and control up to four SMU instruments for DC or Pulsed I-V test in either the same app, same project, or a combination of the two.
- Create tests by mixing any of these SMU instruments: 2400 Graphical Series, 2400 Standard Series (DC only), 2600B Series, 2651A, 2657A, and 6430 SourceMeter® SMU (DC only) instruments.
- Differentiate SMU instrument channels and their measurement data using labels that are relevant to your device or module.
- Native X-Y graphing, panning, and zooming; screenshot capturing of graphs.
- Spreadsheet/tabular viewing of data; export data for further analysis.
- Annotating of tests; save test setups.
- GPIB, USB 2.0, Ethernet compliance.
Optional Apps Tailored for your Characterization Needs
The 2450 is an excellent tool to define nearly any DC test you choose for characterizing materials, electronic devices and modules. For more specific needs, Keithley offers oninstrument software apps that alter the 2450's behavior, fitting your instrument to your needs. These apps can be installed directly to your 2450 by connecting to Keithley's KickStart instrument control software and opening the relevant app in KickStart.
I-V Tracer App
Curve tracing analysis is a critical task for many users in the semiconductor development supply chain. Engineers and technicians both hold the traditional curve tracer as the simplest, fastest method for generating characteristic I-V curves on a device. They are heavily used by engineers in failure analysis and incoming inspection to qualify parts, identify counterfeit devices, and to quickly identify the location of a failure on damaged devices. SMUs have typically been limited to predefined sweeps with longer set up times than curve tracers — until I-V Tracer.
Keithley's I-V Tracer app leverages the touchscreen and front-panel knob of the 2450 to allow precise, live control over the SMU output while viewing I-V results of 2 terminal devices. At each individual output level current and voltage are measured and plotted. The small footprint of the SMU enables portable bench top use, reserving high power (kW) traditional curve tracers for special cases. The power envelope of the 2450 allows it to comfortably operate in the low power range of traditional curve tracers like the Tektronix 576 and Tektronix 370A, while offering enhanced low current measurements.
Once installed, I-V Tracer exists on the SMU itself, meaning I-V tracer can be used wherever your SMU can go, without a continuous remote connection. It can also integrate with KickStart to enable simple data collection and comparison on the PC, simplifying the preparation of reports used in failure analysis or teaching labs at colleges and universities.
I-V Tracer capabilities with the 2450:
- Use the full power envelope of the 2450 (max 200 V or 1 A)
- Trace by sourcing voltage or current, positive or negative
- 2 or 4-wire sense
- Compare mode for verifying against a reference device
- Reading table view to see exact measurements
- Easily copy curves and settings to your PC with KickStart
