Performance Tests

Performance tests check all the specifications of the power supply. The tests are grouped into constant-voltage mode tests
(Table 2-4) and constant-current mode tests (Table 2-5).

Constant Voltage (CV) Tests

Test Setup

Connect your dc voltmeter leads to only +S and -S (see Figure 2-1), because the power supply regulates the voltage between
these points, not between the + and - output terminals .

Test Procedures

Perform the test procedures in Table 2-4. The CV tests are:
•
Voltage Programming and Readback Accuracy.
•
CV Load Effect.
•
CV Source Effect.
•
CV Noise (PARD).
•
Transient Recovery Time.
Note
The tests are independent and may be performed in any order.
