5.5 סוויפּ פֿונקציע
The "Sweep" function allows for characteristic analysis of the DUT by displaying test results point by point over the testing period, forming a trace graph. This is useful for observing parameter responses to changes in applied voltage, current, or testing time. A movable marker on the graph allows for reading parameters at specific points of interest. Refer to the detailed programming guide for advanced use of the sweep function.
