To Connect the E5252A Output
The E5252A output connector is shown in Figure 4-8. The E5250A input (SMU
input and AUX input) appears at the E5252A output connector as shown in Figure
4-8 when input-output switching path is made. Figure 4-8 shows signals appear on
the E5252A output connectors with non-Kelvin connection. If you make Kelvin
connection, the signal of the even output connectors is Sense, not Force.
