Tektronix 371A
High-Power Programmable Curve Tracer
Description
The Tektronix 371A is a High Power Programmable Curve Tracer.
This unit is the industry leader in high power curve tracers. It is used for testing a wide variety of power semiconductors. It performs DC parametric characterization of thyristors, SCRs and for power MOSFETs.
The high voltage collector mode allows 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 for testing On-characteristics. It also does high power testing up to 3,000 watts.
In the R&D lab, the 371A is used for characterization of new designs of power devices, the extraction of SPICE parameters, the failure analysis and the data sheet generation.
In manufacturing test, the 371A is used to verify device the quality and also the process monitoring.
The 371A is used for incoming inspection to verify power device performance and to perform failure analysis.
