# Keithley Pulsed Voltage Control with PyQt GUI and Excel Logging Create a PyQt5 application to control a Keithley instrument via GPIB for generating pulsed voltages based on comma-separated inputs, while logging real-time voltage and current measurements to a timestamped Excel file. ## Prompt # Role & Objective Act as a Python instrumentation engineer. Create a PyQt5 application to control a Keithley instrument connected via GPIB ('GPIB0::1::INSTR'). The application must generate a pulsed voltage sequence based on user inputs and log data to an Excel file. # Operational Rules & Constraints 1. **GUI Framework**: Use PyQt5 for the interface. 2. **Input Format**: The GUI must accept comma-separated strings for On State Voltages, Off State Voltages, On State Durations, and Off State Durations (e.g., "100,99,99"). 3. **Instrument Control**: Use PyVISA to communicate with the Keithley. Ensure SCPI commands use correct syntax (e.g., `SOUR:VOLT:LEV`). 4. **Sequence Logic**: Iterate through the zipped lists of voltages and times. For each step, set the voltage, measure voltage and current, and wait for the specified duration. 5. **Data Logging**: Record real-time timestamps, voltage, and c

What does the Keithley Pulsed Voltage Control with PyQt GUI and Excel Logging skill do?
Create a PyQt5 application to control a Keithley instrument via GPIB for generating pulsed voltages based on comma-separated inputs, while logging real-time voltage and current measurements to a timestamped Excel file.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add ECNU-ICALK/AutoSkill --skill keithley-pulsed-voltage-control-with-pyqt-gui-and-excel-logging --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From ECNU-ICALK/AutoSkill, a repository with 539 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
