The Parametric Measurement

The question as to what constitutes parametric testing is an interesting one and is possibly open to some debate. In general, parametric testing involves the electrical testing and characterization of four main types of semiconductor devices: resistors, diodes, transistors, and capacitors. This App Note enables engineers and researchers to make accurate parametric measurements on low and high power devices both now and for many years into the future.
