Abstract

This internship was set to demonstrate a basic understanding of the Keithley 6517B electrometer and LabVIEW programming. Using LabVIEW software, a Keithley 6517B Electrometer was controlled so as to supply a voltage to a 1 MΩ fixed resistor while also measuring its temperature and resistance. A resistance vs time graph and temperature vs time graph were plotted using the software. For a duration of approximately 320 seconds the temperature increased from 7.5°C to 27.5°C while during that same period of time the resistance dropped from 1.0004MΩ to 0.9816MΩ.
