Keithley Hosts Capacitance-Voltage Testing Webinar Keithley Instruments will host a 45min online seminar entitled 'Semiconductor Capacitance-Voltage (C-V) Testing Fundamentals'. The seminar will be broadcast on 29 October at 15:00 CET, to enable engineers based in Europe to participate in the live event. The webcast is free to attend, but registration is required. The seminar will introduce the topic of C-V measurements as they relate to semiconductor device and materials characterisation. It is recommended for engineers who are new to semiconductor materials and device testing and those that want to refresh their knowledge of the subject.

Resistance/Capacitance Boxes Get Rubber Boot Guard Time Electronics has given its decade resistance and capacitance boxes more protection by fitting an ergonomic rubber boot as a guard on standard models. The guard protects against accidental damage and everyday wear and tear, especially when decade boxes are used in the field. The boot is fitted as standard on the popular 1051 and 1040 resistance boxes, as well as the 1070/1071 capacitance boxes. As well as providing durability the boot has a textured grip for comfortable handling and a raised edge so the decade box angles slightly upward when resting horizontally. This improves visibility, as well as gripping the surface, meaning no movement when thumbwheel switches are pressed. It is easy to remove if the user prefers a standalone unit or to house the decade box in a carry case. In addition to decade boxes the boot also fits a number of Time Electronics' portable test instruments. These include the 1006 and 1007 DC millivolt...
