Oscilloscope Curve Tracer Schematic. The peak to peak test voltage is adjusted by selecting different taps on a power transformer and the test current is limited by a. I build it up on a bread board first and it works very well.
On an oscilloscope probing the x axis is quite simple the voltage is as is i e. The circuit traces the current versus voltage curve for the component under test on an ordinary oscilloscope. And it doesn t even matter which transistors you use to build it with.
Current plot in real time.

Corresponds to the volts per division set on the oscilloscope. The v i curve tracer is an indispensable tool for troubleshooting circuits and testing components. I build it up on a bread board first and it works very well.
