The DCA Pro from PEAK Electronics makes short work of testing parts like a transistor. This small device can determine pinout, component type, and essential parameters in a matter of seconds. Not only that but it can be connected to a (Windows) PC and draw parameter curves.</p> <p>Check out the video review to see how the device and software work. Then head over to the <a href="https://www.element14.com/community/docs/DOC-93083/l/workbench-wednesday-12-semiconductor-measurements">element14 page</a> where you can download a zip file full of example parts I measured for you. Use the free DCA Pro software to open them.</p>
