[edit] Images of curve trace displays ?

It would be useful to expand the article by showing some typical V-I curves for BJTs and FETs. DFH 18:38, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nowadays?

Are Sony/Tek still manufacturing any curve tracers? DFH 19:09, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes, you can find the 371B (high power) and 370B (high voltage) curves tracer in the tektronix website. They are minor evolutions of older systems (370, 371, 370A, 371A) which are more than 10 years old (basically, the oldest systems have no floppy disc, while the more recents have a 1.44MB floppy disc...). IIRC, the sony logo is no longer displayed on the curve tracers, but I might be wrong. CyrilB 21:16, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tube Curve tracer

  • Let us not forget that Tektronix made a tube curve tracer (Model 570) meaning it traced the curves of electron tubes, not just being constructed using electron tube technology. Maybe provision should be made to include info? 69.117.136.18 01:23, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
