System Spec with the same models in parallel
N =Number of Slave + 1,
P=Power rating of Master,
I=Current rating of Master,
R=Resistance rating of Master,
S=Slew time of Master should be less than the slew time of Slave
Psystem=P x N
Isysetm=I x N
Rsysetm=R/N
Ssystem-min=S x N if Master slew-time=Slave slew-time
Accuracy and Offset = Master Specification x N
Slew Time = Master Specification x N
1) With the same models, this configuration can be working as one single unit with increased power and current rating.
2) To further improve current accuracy in Master+Slave configuration. User can perform current calibration even in
Master+Slave mode.
3) It still has all the step, transient or pulse fea tures. Slave slew time must be set to ½ of Master's slew time.
4) The CC-Low, CC-Mid, CP-Low, CP-Mid, CR-Mid, CR-High\won't be used Master-Slave configuration.
5) It could have stability issue at CV mode with very low current level; this also depends upon the wiring and DUT. It
would be better adding equivalent RC filter at the input terminal for this case.
