Description
Dual Range Curve Tracer/Tracker for Semiconductors (transistors, diodes) & Passive componentsDescription:
Our latest version of our popular 'Octopus' style tester. Couple this unit with an oscilloscope capable of being set in XY mode and you have a very capable tester.
The old service guys new a thing or two about creating simple easy to use test equipment. The 'Octopus' is a classic design that is still relevant today.
Using a low AC voltage to provide a stimulating or 'tickle' voltage to components allows a visual representation of the Current (I) Vs. Voltage (V) to be seen on an oscilloscope set in XY mode.
Our version integrates all the required parts onto one professionally designed PCB that in turn is scaled to correctly fit a Hammond 1591B enclosure. Using this technique provides a sturdy, reliable test piece that will give years of reliable service.
The PCB
incorporates
the BNC connectors for connection to the 'scope, two AC power input options (Barrel jack or screw terminals) an on/off switch and a range switch that allows the tester to be used in situations where a greater degree of current limiting is required.
Also on the PCB are
the
two standard banana jacks that
accommodate
flying leads to allow in circuit or out of circuit testing, these are set at the standard 3/4" spacing allowing the use of BNC cable adapters to be used with the device.
Please Note:
No cables/leads or adapters are included in this sale, only the test unit as described. We do sell a version that has all the needed cables and power supply, search for ebay item number; 163076912332
Please ensure your oscilloscope can handle a 12 volt AC voltage on the input. This should not be a problem with most scopes, but those designed for use with a computer or some of the very low cost LCD/Arduino based scopes may not be suitable, please ensure your scope is capable before making a purchase.
