A $125 Curve Tracer that is functional
mawyatt:
Here's a link to using a AWG and DSO for a crude curve tracer we did awhile back.

Another link to a Curve Tracer concept for a more advanced Curve Tracer, we are way delinquent in finishing this project as other work took a precedent.

Thank you. Here is my expedient. My AFG has a max of 10 volts which means low voltage zeners only. But it should work for most of us amateurs.
Over time I may add an amplifier.
My Kikusui cannot even really pick up the knee. But the venerable Siglent 1104XE can. I took photos instead of screen shots to better show the setup.
Also,as noteself and a breadcrumb, the hi current output is 13.3 X the low output. This makes little sense to me at the moment. I will change the 7.5K resistors to 10K for a useable 10X scale.
