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.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

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
