SMUs vs. 5 Other Instruments Tuesday, August 6, 2024 作者： Bradley Odhner

Source Measure Units (SMUs) are versatile instruments developed at the advent of semiconductors to characterize their complex behavior. Key capabilities of a SMU include 4-quadrant operation, precision measurement and sourcing, and high speed. These capabilities make SMUs similar to a range of other test and measurement equipment, yet different in meaningful ways. This blog explores some of the …

4 Key Testing Phases for Power Conversion Equipment Tuesday, February 14, 2023 作者： John Tucker

While the types of electrical tests required during the design and production of power conversion equipment are similar to those required for previous generations of devices, the adoption of wide-bandgap materials like silicon carbide (SiC) or gallium nitride (GaN) requires added rigor and new test strategies. Bench testing continues to play an important role at every stage of the development of …

Double Pulse Testing to Determine Energy Loss on Wide Bandgap MOSFETs Wednesday, December 14, 2022 作者： Tektronix Expert

The power-density advantages of smaller and lighter designs are particularly evident in space-constrained and/or mobile usages such as electric vehicles, but compact power electronics are more broadly desirable as well. At the same time, efficiency is growing in importance as governments introduce financial incentives and more stringent energy-efficiency regulations. Guidelines issued by global …

Captured RF Signal Playback on the TSG4100A Using the AFG31000 Thursday, April 23, 2020 作者： Alan Wolke

Introduction: Radio Frequency (RF) signals are used widely in today’s world. RF transmitters have become so pervasive that they can be found in almost any location imaginable: consumer electronics in homes, medical devices in hospitals, industrial control systems in factories, and even tracking devices implanted underneath the skin of livestock, pets, and people. This presents a challenge with RF …
