6241A DC Voltage/Current Source/Monitor
(NOT distributed in North America & Asia.)
Applications
Semiconductor industry
- DC parameter characteristics tests of transistors or FETs
- suitable DUT power supply for S parameter evaluating tests of RF transistors by help of network analysers
- Diode characteristics tests (forward voltage, reverse current)
- Laser and Photodiode tests
- Latch-Up test at CMOS IC’s
- ON-Resistance measurements on MOSFETs and Analog Switches
- RFID, ASIC, SOC tests
- low-noise power supply for noise characteristics test at PLL’s
- DC/DC converter characteristics tests
- characteristics tests at Power Amplifiers
- emulation of different resistor values at the pins of integrated circuits (current source)
- precise low resistance measurements (e.g. metal contact, conductive plastic, conductive paint)
- Go/NoGo production test of electronic devices
- quality assurance at ware input/output control (comparator)
- production line characteristic test system
Solar cell evaluations
- determination of the max. output power operation point
Battery, accumulator and charger test
- generation of load profiles of batteries and accumulators
- charge/discharge cycles at accumulators
- charger tests
ATE
- fast DUT power supply at electronic board test systems (ATE) (automatic sweep generation with read-back of measurement results into the internal sample buffer; therefore reduced GPIB data transfer)
MEMS test
- MEMS = Micro Electro Mechanical Systems need a pulsed supply (from positive to negative supply voltages)
- static performance tests at capacitive sensors
