Heya fellows,
Has anyone used this Semiconductor Analyser with Curve Tracing function? I'm particularlly interested in its curve tracing function. It looks like a wonderful tool to make short work of rudimentary device matching, any comments?

I saw that also and am curious. But I have several transistor tester/checker/curve-tracers already. However, convenience is king and if it is fast at matching, for example, I might get it anyway and get rid of a couple others.

It looks like a great gadget. If someone can figure out how to create a spice model from the traces I would be on board instantly. It won't plot high power or high voltage devices.
Mine just arrived --- demian -- you can download the curve trace data and use Microsoft Solver to determine the DC transfer parameters.
Atlas dca75 pro software keeps crashing
These last few days I have been pairing bc546c bc556c for two Greg ball amps,
I use the dca75 pro, hooked to computer, computer is running windows 7,
When I have made curves for maybe 10 transistors the software freezes, sometimes I can save the measurements by taking the USB out and use different connector, but often I loose the collected data, computer must reboot to work again.
Any of you have same issues, and preferably a fix, I tried running it in lower screen resolution , but to no good.

Contact Jeremy Siddons at Peak. I've always found them to be very helpful and their after-sales service second-to-none.
If you haven't solved your problem already that is...

Wow, I wasn't aware of this nifty little gadget!
I take it it lacks the power and voltage to test power transistors?
