Description / Abstract:
This Standard recommends and describes methods of measurement of
the important electrical characteristics of semiconductor diodes.
For the purpose of this Standard, a semiconductor diode is defined1
as:
"A semiconductor device having two terminals and exhibiting a
nonlinear voltage—current characteristic; in more restricted usage,
a semiconductor device which has the asymmetrical voltage—current
characteristic exemplified by a single p-n junction."
Methods of test are described for static, small-signal and pulse
parameters.
Many of the terms considered herein have been set down in AI E E
and IRE Standards, particularly in 60 IRE 28.SH and AI EE No.
