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

Organic EL light emitter tests
