Rated 5 out of 5

I was looking for an affortable, compact and stand-alone V-I Curve Tracer. Something you don’t have to connect to a scope to view V-I curves. I happened to see uCore UCE-CT220L and I soon realized it was what I was looking for. Compact, with a Display and with an affordable price. I ordered it and I have to say I’m happy with it. I use it to troubleshoot electronic boards by comparision and it works as expected. It lacks pulse generator but I knew it from the beginning and I don’t really use it anyway (I had a VI tracer with pulse generator at office before). This VI tracer has two channels (useful to compare boards), a function to save images of the VI curves, connects to PCs with USB ports, easy to update when uCore releases updates (that just happened, this show that product is supported). By now I’m satisfied with it. Adding a Very Low Range would make it perfect to detect very low differences in very low power logic boards where very small differences in data/address bus between board (difficult to detect) are signs of something wrond with the signal. Hope it will be added in near future. I’m not in any way affiliated to uCore alectronics. I just appreciated very much its work and wanted to let others (and uCore itself) know it. There’s some good work going on here!

At work in 1989-1992 I used a Huntron Tracker 1005B, I own a Heathkit IT-2232 component tracer, and I purchased the UCE-CT220L Fault Locator at V1.05 (V1.12 as I write this). I have used my Heathkit component tracer for at least the last 25 years. Since I got the UCE-CT220L I have switched to using it exclusively, it is more convenient and I appreciate the dual color display for the two traces. I fixed monitors and computers for the University. I fix test equipment for myself and friends as an amateur radio operator. This unit works as expected and the firmware updates have added features. Thanks to uCore for a great product. SN: R5322…2026C

I came across the uCore UCE-CT220L initially on eBay and realised this unit was certainly something that would be of great assistance for my hobby.. I repair and refurbish vintage HiFi and this is an ideal tester particularly due to the fact it can compare two channels simultaneously in addition to its other unique functions and features.
However, I decide to buy this unit directly from the uCore company website rather than through eBay. I must say that the service with regards to both the sales and after-sales is excellent. I received the tester here in the UK within days of placing the order. Upon receiving the unit I had a question regarding a particular function and received a immediate response to my email within a couple of hours..
I’m very pleased with the unit and service and will certainly consider this company for any other items I may need in the future.

I gambled since I have never bought anything from µCore before, but I was surprised. This thing is better than a original Huntron tracker 1000 simply for having the ability to capture the signal and being able to download it later. However, the memory isn’t very big so I can’t store as many photos as I would like but it is still an awesome tool to have when diagnosing any electronic device.

A very common technique back in the days, falls back into oblivion and bringing back to live again is hard. You made it awesome, for a reasonably price. Thank you so much. Updates are working fine (1.20 today) and the service is excellent. Made my day, keep going!
Best regards

Good day,
I must admit that I was skeptical to buy from your company especially, when I compared the price on eBay and the reviews about your company on google didn’t help either, but I decided to chance it and made the purchase.
Now I’m happy to say that I am glad that I did, thank you very much for your kind expert advice.

Hi,
I’m very happy too !! Very good device and regular updates.
So, will it be compatible with the PC_CT22X sofware on futures updates ? Probably not because of the low price… I think for PC compatible the only solution is to buy the PC_CT220S version.
Thank you so much

Muy buen equipo. Con actualizaciones constantes de firmware que son de agradecer. Me sirvió como iniciación a los equipos curve tracer, antes de comprarme el 220S que es para mí, lo mejor de lo mejor. Buen equipo para uso ocasional, para uso intensivo profesional, recomiendo en 220S, ya que poder usar bases de datos hace que sea muy muy potente.
