Chinese TC1 transistor tester

<< < (3/3)

cdev:
I still get so much use out of mine, possibly its because its so easy to use and always gives a usable and thought provoking answer of what it sees the DUT as being.  Its not always what I think its going to tell me. Not at all.

While battery powered transistor testers do have their uses the test current can be little more than useless.
Some use as little as 2mA to test a transistor.
Normal working current for some transistors can be amps which is a totally different area of operation.
Hfe at 2mA can be very different to Hfe at 5 amps.

Did you create the schematic yourself by reverse engineering your broken unit?

Sorry for my late answer, but the schematic is exactly the one I posted above
