Abstract
A test and measurement system includes a device under test (DUT) interface structured to couple to first and second DUTs that are coupled to form a half bridge circuit. A characterization circuit is controlled to perform static testing and dynamic testing of the first and second DUTs. The characterization circuit includes a solid-state bias tee including the first DUT and a first drive voltage generator that provides a DC pulse signal and AC signal on a gate node of the first DUT to cause the first DUT to supply current and voltage signals to the second DUT for static and dynamic characterization of the second DUT. One characterization circuit can generate, at the same time, the gate charge characterization parameters for one DUT and reverse current path (e.g., body diode) characterization of another DUT.
