DIY Curve Tracer (analog)
Dbldutch:
We have a small team that is building a DIY Curve Tracer. Not a Tek577, but a lot better than anything we found that comes close. We are close to the final stages and have a fully operating CT that I'm making measurements with.
If you're interested, have look on my blog. Eventually everything will be shared but we'll wait until we have finished the project.

My blog is not very good for handling comments and questions so please leave them here.
Enjoy!

Congratulations! I don't read your entire blog post yet, but it seems a very comprehensive work.
It would be nice to summarize the technical specifications of your Curve Tracer, maybe using the Tek 576 or 577 datasheet as template.
Dbldutch:
Rodpp, I just finished a first attempt by listing the overall specifications.
rodpp:
Excellent, very good specifications section!
Your Curve Tracer is really impressive. Going up to 200V and up to 2A, with all that controls, it cover a vast set of component tests, certainly covering the operational point for the majority of electronic circuits.
Congratulations for the well done work!

While you didn't do this as a profit making, potentially large quantity product, I would scarcely consider it DIY. It's certainly beyond my capability to construct such a unit, at least in terms of how much my time is worth to me.
I admit it's noteworthy and an excellent job so let me compliment you on doing it so well, including documentation.
Perhaps you should consider marketing it; how much might it sell for?
