Procedure
Preparation
1.
Create a sweep pattern (source pattern) used to vary collector-emitter voltage
V
CE
of the transistor using a general-purpose spreadsheet application on your
PC. (If the amount of voltage change is constant, you can also use the linear
sweep (see section 6.1, “Setting the Log or Linear Sweep”).)
2.
Save the pattern sweep data that you created in step 1 to a file in CSV format.
3.
Transfer (Copy) the pattern sweep data file to the internal memory
(GS610ROM) of the first GS610 via the USB.
4.
Set each GS610 as follows:
