To adjust the probes, open the "Probe" menu. For details, see Chapter 14.1.2, "Probe
settings for power measurements", on page 344.
Type
Selects turn on or turn off time as the type of measurement.
Input Voltage
Sets the channel for the input voltage.
Output Voltage
Sets the channels for the output voltage.
14.7.4 Safe operating area (S.O.A.)
The safe operating area is defined by the voltage and current conditions over which a
power semiconductor device is expected to operate without self-damage. The "Safe
Operating Area" analysis provides a diagram of the safe operating conditions of your
device.
14.7.4.1 Safe operating area results
The results of "SOA" measurements are provided in the following ways:
●
The diagram shows the graphical presentation of:
– the voltage waveform
– the current waveform
●
A logarithmic or linear XY diagram of the calculated voltage (x-axis) and current (y-
axis) waveforms. This curve is a graphical representation of the power handling
capability of the device under various conditions.
