Highlights

Deliver exceptional battery life. Only Keysight N6780 Series SMUs let you visualize the current drain from nA to A in one pass and one picture unlocking insights to deliver exceptional battery life. Accurately emulate a battery with exceptional sourcing.  

  • Stable, glitch-free sourcing and sinking (charge/eLoad), just like a battery.
  • Programmable output resistance mimics the battery’s internal resistance.

Make measurements you didn’t think were possible.

  • Characterize your device’s off-, sleep-, and transmit-mode current in one pass and one picture with seamless measurement ranging technology — no need to make multiple measurement sweeps.
  • Perform battery rundown tests and characterize how your device performs with an actual battery with the SMU’s ammeter (zero-burden current shunt) mode.
