Tektronix 370 series
Fully Programmable Digital Curve Tracers with Cursors and Hardcopy
Description
Nothing compares to a curve
tracer when power, versatility,
and ease of use are
needed to test the DC characteristics
of semiconductor
devices.
The Sony/Tektronix
370A and 371A curve tracers
combine a simple-to-use
front panel, digital acquisition
and display, and programmability
to serve many
application needs.
The 370-
series digital curve tracers
offer several advantages over
analog curve tracers:
Key Points
Higher voltage and current
sourcing capability (up to
3000 V and 400 A)
• Higher resolution voltage
and current measurements
(down to 1 pA and 50 µV)
• View a family of curves
without flicker
• Display a reference curve
to measure variations due
to temperature, etc.
• Voltage, current, DC beta,
and slope measurement
with built-in cursor measurements
• Store curves and setups for
consistent tests and measurements
based on reference
curves
• Full-color printouts using
an HPGL plotter instead of
expensive Polaroids
• Automate tests with computer
and software (e.g.,
Metrics, LabView, etc.)
