D.U.T.
1. The mercury wetted relay provides a high speed repeated
pulse to the D.U.T.
2. 100x scope probes are used, to allow high speeds and
voltages.
3. The worst–case condition for static dv/dt is established by
triggering the D.U.T. with a normal LED input current, then
removing the current. The variable RTEST allows the dv/dt to be
gradually increased until the D.U.T. continues to trigger in
response to the applied voltage pulse, even after the LED
current has been removed. The dv/dt is then decreased until
the D.U.T. stops triggering.
