The 371B is a curve tracer from Tektronix. A curve tracer, or curve checker, is a type of electronic test equipment engineers use to analyze semiconductor device characteristics. Curve tracers contain current and voltage sources to stimulate the equipment under test (EUT). A curve tracer applies a swept voltage to two terminals of the EUT, measuring the level of current flowing at each voltage.
Additional Features:
High Voltage and Current Sourcing (Up to 3,000 V or 400 A)
Built-in Cursor Measurements - Dot, Window and Function Line
Kelvin Sense Measurements
Sweep Measurement Mode
Waveform Comparison and Averaging
Fully Programmable
1.44 MB Floppy Drive Stores Setup and Bitmap of Curves
Direct Hardcopy with Third-party Printer
Applications:
Parametric Characterization of Semiconductors
Failure Analysis
Data Sheet Generation
Manufacturing Test
Process Monitoring and Quality Control
Incoming Inspection
Component Matching
The Tektronix 371B, the industry leader in high-power curve tracers, performs DC parametric characterization on a wide variety of power semiconductors including thyristors, SCRs, IGBTs and power MOSFETs. The high-voltage collector mode permits testing the Off-Characteristics of a device up to 3,000 volts. The pulsed high-current collector mode provides output current pulses greater than 400 amps peak to test On-Characteristics and permits high-power testing up to 3,000 watts. In the sweep measurement mode, the 371B automatically constructs a family of curves while stimulating the device with low-duty-cycle pulses. With this capability, power curves can be displayed without excessive heating of the device.
