  • Page 31: Function Description

    Figure 5-1: Block diagram of channels 5.2 Power supply/load unit The Power Supply/Load Module 12V R&S TS-PSU12 is designed as a 4- quadrant source consisting of a 2-quadrant output stage followed by a polarity switch. The out- put stage consists of a linear regulator with current and voltage feedback. The linear regulator receives its power through the PSU-AC/DC converter.
  • Page 32 R&S TS-PSU12. This may increase the voltage at the output to rise to the level of the exter- nal source, but not beyond the range (12 V).

  • Page 33: Characteristic Diagram

    The maximum voltage or current values are determined by the characteristic data of the R&S TS-PSU12. In addition to the absolute limits 12 V and 0,5 A, a maximum out- put power (CURRENT_LIMIT * VOLTAGE_LEVEL) of 5 W must not be exceeded in source operation and 6 W in sink mode (continuous operation).

  • Page 34: Inductive Loads

    To compensate for voltage drops in the line to the external load or source, the R&S TS-PSU12 can be set to external sensing. Then two additional lines directly to the test object are required. The measured voltage difference on these lines is automatically regulated to the target voltage by the R&S TS-PSU12.
  • Page 35 (with one source working in source mode, the other in sink mode). 5.2.7 Electronic on/off and PWM The R&S TS-PSU12 has an electronic switch for rapid On / Off switching of the output path. For reasons of safety, the module is automatically switched to “Off” after initialisa- tion.

  • Page 36: Protective Mechanisms

    This condition is also detected by the R&S TS-PSU12 and results in the affected channel being turned off.

  • Page 37: Measurement Unit

    To record transient pro- cesses or current and voltage values over time, the R&S TS-PSU12 is able to record the selected source at a sampling rate of up to 10 kHz and save measurement values.
