Microprocessors and application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) require low-voltage, high-current power supplies. These supplies usually have very strict requirements on output-voltage deviations ...

A public Web site usually represents a considerable investment. Everyone wants it to operate smoothly; there’s a lot of pressure on the development and operations teams to ensure that there won’t be a ...

Part 1 of this series focuses on high-performance electronic loads for testing power supplies that have low output voltage and high current. It describes the necessity for special electronic loads, ...

The previous article in this series discussed types of testing that can potentially be performed with load slammers. In this last installment, we show some scope plots of actual testing using a load ...
