BK 501A Curve Tracer and Siglent 1204xe

(1/1)

watchmaker:
At 70 I decided to learn EE in order to keep my mind sharp.  This forum, Kahn Academy and USN are my main resources.  THANK YOU!!

Anyway, I have the above equipment and have carefully calibrated the scope to the 501A.  Saved the setup as a named setup.

If I read this right, the 1ma trace reveals a Beta of about 120 (which matches my transistor tester) by reading the smaller graduations as .5 ma/div.

I get the same result interpreting the 2ma/div by reading the small graduations as 1.0 ma/div and dividing by 20uA per step.

I also get the same Hfe by interpreting the 1ma/div 20uA per step; reading the small grads as .5mA.

Am I doing this right?  I was a voced student in HS and was taught using the USN course and I am checking my measurement skills.


Regards,

Dewey
