Okay Stanley... I've got a Tektronix 370A curve tracer at work. So the
diodes need to be matched? No problem.
So I match the diodes and the resistors to within 0.001%. Are there any
other components that need matched? Also, you mentioned using hemostats as
heatsinks on the diodes while installing them. I know that diodes make very
good temperature sensors as well. Are there any suggestions on keeping them
stable after they are on the board? What is the recommended operating
temperature of the PICTIC II?
Thanks.

Maybe we should buy lots of diodes to match them, they are relative cheap,
also
use extra care installing them. Using hemostats as heat sinks and just
enough
heat for a good connection do not want to damage/change them after the
match.
