Description

The Tektronix 370A Curve Tracer is the world standard for high resolution curve tracers and is used in a wide variety of applications. This Curve Tracer performs DC parametric characterization of transistors, thyristors, diodes, SCRs, MOSFETs, optoelectronic components, solar cells, solid state displays and other semiconductor devices. In the R&D lab, the Tektronix 370A Curve Trace is used for characterization of new designs, extraction of SPICE parameters, failure analysis and data sheet generation. In manufacturing test, it is used to verify device quality and process monitoring. The Tektronix 370A Curve Tracer is used for incoming inspection to verify device performance, perform failure analysis and to match components.
