1U = 0.1 mA
- Display: 1000 digits
Breakdown detection
- "DELTATEST" detector adjusted for ΔI = 10 mA ± 10% with 10 μsec. ± 20%. Total insensitivity to current due to the resistance and the capacitance of the device under test
- "IMAX" detection by maximum current adjustable from and from 0.1 to 110 mA by 0.1 mA steps
- DELTATEST and IMAX mode combinationIMIN threshold function
