-A Transistor Tester is also known as a curve tracer and the Transistor Tester Adapter is used to add curve tracer capability to your set of tools. A Curve Tracer plots the current (I) versus voltage (V) to create an I-V curve for an electronic device. The Transistor Tester allows you to create I-V curves for NPN and PNP transistors, as well as both P-Type and N-Type FETs. The Transistor Tester will vary the voltage at the base of the transistor and measure the current response to create a graph like the one below.+A Transistor Tester is also known as a curve tracer and the Transistor Tester Adapter is used to add curve tracer capability to your set of tools. A Curve Tracer plots the current (I) versus voltage (V) to create an I-V curve for an electronic device. The Transistor Tester allows you to create I-V curves for a variety of discrete semiconductor devices, like diodes and transistors. The Transistor Tester will vary the voltage at the base of the transistor and measure the current response to create a graph like the one below.
