Post subject: TLP measures matter
Unread postPosted: Fri Mar 11, 2005 6:04 pm

Hello everybody,
In few days i'm gonna begin some TLP measures and modelling, i've been said that the voltage measurements is rather easy to do, but that there would be some difficulties in current measurements. Does someone know why? what could it be? I'm searching the net for information and no clue about the difference that could happen.

Thanx a lot

Greetings:

Is your use of the TLP system for doing ESD testing? I have not performed TLP testing, but have sat in a couple classes for it and work with folks who do use a TLP tester for semiconductor ESD protection design. I do not recall ever hearing about current measurements being more troublesome than voltage measurements.

In fact i misunderstood. There weren't a big deal with current measurements. And yes it's for ESD testing. Do you know were i could find information about components characteristics using TLP methods ?

Thanx
