To answer the Increasing demand & Innovation of developing energy saving technologies in the field of power electronics such as inverters and electronic vehicle parts.
By using wide Gap semiconductor parts such as Sic & GaN, which is the next generation power semiconductor products. Accurate measurement is greatly needed.
What Can Curve Tracers Measure
- Semiconductor parts such as… IGBTs, MOSFETs, Transistors, Diodes, LEDs etc.
- Measurement points that is … Semiconductors are evaluated by
”Current (I) – Voltage (V)”
For example, “Current – Voltage” characteristics of the MOSFET have four kinds of areas, ON area, OFF area, Saturation area and Breakdown area.
Characteristics of these four areas can be observed by the Curve Tracer.
Measurable Characteristics
- V(BR)DSS, Drain to source breakdown voltage
- IDSS, Zero gate voltage drain current
- IGSS, Gate to source leakage current
- VGS, Gate to source cutoff voltage
- RDS, Static drain to source on state resistance
- VDF, Body drain diode forward voltage
- Vth, Gate threshold voltage
Compatible Models
Functions, Jigs and user interface is compatible with discontinued models
