1. Discrete active components
Discrete" active components are elementary components such as diodes, transistors, thyristors, triacs, etc., encapsulated in a housing that allows them to be assembled individually.
These components are measured in two ways:
so-called "static" measurements are used to record or test their current-voltage characteristic (for diodes) or current-voltage as a function of base current (for bipolar transistors);
dynamic measurements: these concern the "small signal" parameters of these devices, such as dynamic resistance, transconductances, h-parameters, S-parameters (see article
