Abstract

A curve tracer signal conversion device is provided. The signal conversion device has an input connected to the curve tracer base port to accept a repeating sequence of stepped base signals. The conversion device has a signal input connected to either the curve tracer collector or emitter port, typically the collector. The conversion device has a plurality of signal outputs, where each signal output is sequentially connected to the selected (i.e. collector) curve tracer port in response to a corresponding base step signal. The signals outputs may be provided to a test fixture, for testing a multi-pin integrated circuit (IC).
