Sažetak

The classic approach for determining insulating resistance by using commercial testers is not reliable for testing different types of insulation, especially for cables with one conductor and nanoelectronic oxide-based devices (nanotransistors). In this paper an alternative low-voltage method for measuring insulation resistance based on strongly increased current sensitivity is proposed. The proposed method of measuring insulation resistance at low voltages is realized by using a high sensitivity Keithley SMU 2612 unit. The verification of the proposed method is made by measuring insulation resistance of medical Corkscrew Electrode and gate oxide resistance for nano-scaled MOSFET. Finally, results of measuring insulation resistance obtained by commercial testers and proposed method in the verification process are compared.
