  • Page 10 RC-02A 1. Outline 1.1 Outline RC-02A is an optional board used in Keisoku Giken’s LOAD EDGE/STATION Series electronic load, capable of measuring ripple/noise according to JEITA (Japan Electronics and Information Technology industries Association) standard, and making it possible to measure ripple/noise voltages rapidly.
  • Page 11 RC-02A 2.Ripple/Noise measurement Ripple/Noise measurement with this unit is described. NOTE Measured data by using this unit may have an error due to a connecting condition of the signal cable and other use conditions, such conditions resulting from complicated ripple/noise generation mechanism specific to switching power supplies.
  • Page 12 Waveform of RIPPLE Volt. is deformed. Fig.2-2 Typical waveform of switching ripple 2.2.2 Separation method with pulse width duty ratio To remove only Spike Noise accurately , RC-02A adopt the Method of Setting a “RIPPLE RATIO” which is defined as t / T ×100(%)...
  • Page 13 Result of A1 through A3 ① ③ respectively ② through B3 , if Setting of RIPPLE RATIO ③ RC-02A will regard the Peak Output Waveform as the Peak of Ripple Volt. However if you Increase RIPPLE RATIO gradually ,you will Ripple Ratio (%) find that Measured RIPPLE Volt.
  • Page 14 Switching Period (G) but AC Period (F) as a Period to search the peak of RIPPLE Volt.. As you can see Fig.2-5, once the AC Frequency (F) is selected as the Measuring Period for RC-02A, there are many Triangle Waveform of RIPPLE and the Peaks of Spike Noise as well as RIPPLE are fluctuated due to AC Ripple.
  • Page 15 RC-02A 3. Connections Please review this precautions herein so as to maximize the capability of this unit to obtain accurate data as much as possible. Refer to an manual of LAOD EDGE/STATION Series electronic load to be used to make sure the position of the INPUT connector.
  • Page 16 4.1 Items to be displayed With an optional board RC-02A, the following new menu can be displayed. (1) DC Voltage range The currently selected DC volt. range is displayed. The range can be selected one from among 6V(LOW range), 60V(MID range), and 500V(HIGH range).
  • Page 17 RC-02A 4.2 Select a function in menu When the optional board - RC-02A is embedded, the following new menu is then added. ・RIPPLE NOISE : settings of ripple/noise measurement can be done. First, select an appropriate menu mode by pressing “MENU” key to display menu selection display.
