Variable collector supply
0 - 100.0 % % of maximum peak voltage value is
displayed in the CRT readout area. Provides
uncalibrated variable collector supply
amplitude control from 0 to 100 % in 0.1 %
increments.
Safety interlocks The protective cover must be in place over
test terminals and lid shut before voltage can
be applied to the terminals.
When protective cover is open, collector
supply is not operated.
Warning Indicator Red light indicates dangerous voltage is
applied to collector or base terminal.
Limiting indicator Indicates that internal sensing circuit
automatic protection is operating.
Looping compensation
Range At least 100 pF Cancels stray capacitance between DUT
terminal and ground.
