370A Programmable Curve Tracer
The 370A, the world standard for high resolution curve tracers
is used in a wide variety of applications. The 370A 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, it is used for characterization of new designs,
extraction of SPICE parameters, failure analysis and data sheet generation.
In manufacturing test, the 370A is used to verify device
quality and process monitoring.
The 370A is used for incoming inspection to verify device
performance, perform failure analysis and to match components.
Interactive Programmable Control
Interactive control of all measurements is accomplished
from the full featured front panel or over the GPIB. Operating parameters
can be adjusted and stored and recalled using several storage methods
including the 370A nonvolatile memory, the built-in DOS compatible floppy
disk or to an external controller.
Test and Measurement Software
Metrics software offers computer-controlled DC parameter
characterization of numerous semiconductor devices. Through Metrics ICS
control of the 370A, measurements can be performed without the need to
interact with the instruments front panel. Every aspect of instrument
control and data analysis is available through a set of interactive dialog
boxes that are configured in a graphics-oriented Microsoft Windows environment.
Test Fixturing
A test fixture is a standard accessory that provides safe
device enclosure to ensure operator protection during measurements. The
test fixture accommodates standard A1001 through A1005 adapters with Kelvin
sensing, 3-Pin adapters without Kelvin sensing and the A1023 and A1024
surface mount adapters.
