High Current Decks 5300HX only

HC-500 (500A), HC-1000 (1000A), and HC-1200 (1200A) high current decks extend the high current levels available from the 5300HX semiconductor tester. HC-500 with DSP-100 remote start/display testing a high current device is shown above.
On-state current tests such as VT, VF, VCESAT, VDSON, and RDSON can be extended to the limits indicated above by using the appropriately rated high current deck. The 500A version can be upgraded to 1000A or 1200A.

Remote Start

DSP-100 Remote Start unit
Provides a manual start of test and displays the Bin or Sort upon test completion. When used with a handler, the status display indicates the logical bin (1-16) or fail (F). When used with a manual station, the status display indicates sort number (1-99) or fail (F).
