So what do people test with high voltages like that? And do SMU's use AC sweeping voltage like a Curve Tracer ? I gather a SMU can be a current or voltage, sink or source, is it basically just DC tho, and people still use the HV for testing transistors/diodes or even leakage testing caps?
I copied a Heathkit Curve Tracer, but still never finished the op-amp section, and now I want to use a micro-controller with it. I'd love to try to copy an old, low voltage version of these, or just leave out most the HV section.
