Introduction
This document contains information on the Model 2600-KIT Screw Terminal Connector Kit. The kit contains a cable housing and an inverted plug. Use this kit to cable Category I SMU output connections on the
rear panel of a Model 260x Series SourceMeter® Instrument to DUTs (Devices Under Test).
WARNING Maximum floating (common mode) voltage for an SMU is 250V. Exceeding this level could damage the instrument and create a shock hazard.
Using an external source to float an SMU could create a shock hazard in
the test circuit. A shock hazard exists whenever >42V peak is present in
the test circuit.
NOTE
If applicable, remove terminal block(s) before using the Model 2600-KIT.
The Model 2602 can use two terminal blocks (one for each SMU channel),
the Model 2601 has one terminal block for the single SMU.
A terminal block can be removed from the rear panel by loosening the two
captive retaining screws and pulling it off the rear panel.
Connector description
The inverted plug secures cables to pins for a quick connection to the rear panel SMU connector. Refer to
Table 1 for plug specifications.

Connection
Refer to Figure 2 for a typical instrument connector location. Refer to the specific instrument’s user manual
for additional connection information.
WARNING Do not exceed the voltage rating for the wiring used or for the
Model 260x. Make sure connections at both ends do not exceed the rated specifications.
Failure to follow this warning may result in injury from electrical shock
as well as damage to the equipment.
