September 7, 2022 - Vista, California - Axiom Test Equipment, Inc., an electronic test equipment rental
and sales company has published a new blog post entitled "Modular Test Solution Speed Semiconductor Testing," that explains
how electronic loads are able to enhance the performance of AC and DC power supplies
and energy sources. Connecting an AC or DC electronic load to the output of an AC
or DC power supply, respectively, enables it to replace the electronic circuitry
normally at that point in an electronic design or product and study the behavior
of the power supply under a variety of operating conditions.
A power supply can be analyzed by connecting it to a suitable-sized resistor
to sink current to ground. However, such a passive load is not representative of
most actual applications. An electronic load mimics the complexity of a real-world
load with resistance, inductance, and capacitance that can vary under changing conditions.
Whether by manual tuning or programmed under computer control, an electronic load
can mimic the many different load conditions facing a power supply in a circuit
or system and be part of testing that provides data on how a power supply responds
to those conditions.
Selecting an electronic load can be guided by the application to be tested, whether
a sizeable 220 VAC three-phase unit under test (UUT) maintained by a regular schedule
of measurements or a lower power, lower voltage DC supply that must be tested in
large volumes as part of production-line quality-assurance measurements. Learn more
information about electronic loads by reading the full post on Axiom's Website.
Electronic loads are versatile test tools and invaluable instruments that enhance
the performance of AC and DC power supplies and energy sources. Connecting an AC
or DC electronic load to the output of an AC or DC power supply, respectively, enables
it to replace the electronic circuitry normally at that point in an electronic design
or product and study the behavior of the power supply under a variety of operating
conditions. Combined with a power analyzer and often an instrument-grade power supply,
the electronic load can reveal enough about the power supply to lead to higher efficiency,
greater stability, and an even longer operating lifetime. The best electronic load
for an application will be determined by the ranges and limits of the voltage, current,
and power of the power supply or source to be tested.

Electronic loads operate in numerous modes when analyzing a power supply, including
constant current (CC), constant resistance (CR), constant voltage (CV), and constant
power (CP) modes. Commercial electronic loads also provide modes to test power supplies
for key comparative performance parameters...

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got
Mail" when a new message arrived...
