Here are some more examples of testing (and looking inside components) with the curve tracer, "signature tracer." Testing FET's, PNP transistors, LED's and more. See the difference between "Depletion" type FET's and "Enhancement" type FET's. Build a super simple jig to test these components on your bench. More examples of why every troubleshooter should own this device!
