Benchtop troubleshooting tool

23 May 2001 Test & Measurement

Huntron's Tracker 4000 provides state-of-the-art troubleshooting methodology for boards by using analog signature analysis techniques. The dual trace CRT display can quickly compare known good component signatures with the device under test, thus detecting subtle problems such as IC leakage, intermittent faults, open capacitors etc. This is done without the need to power up the circuit under test and perhaps cause further damage. The Tracker 4000 can supply any combination of a possible 6000 selections of voltage, source resistance and test frequency.

It can internally store up to 20 customised test groups with up to four ranges per group, so the best possible range of test parameters may be determined to produce the optimum display of the device's signature.

Huntron's exclusive STAR (safe tracker active range) feature prevents damaging a component by setting test parameters beyond its current limitations.

An integral pulse generator allows the testing of gate-fired devices such as SCRs and TRIACs.
