9.2.1 Source Measure Unit (SMU)

A source measure unit (SMU) is a common building block in memory and semiconductor test equipment and bench-top source measure units. A DAC is used in an SMU to force a desired voltage or a current to a device-under-test (DUT). Figure 56 provides a simplified circuit diagram of the force-DAC in an SMU.
