Testing power supplies and batteries requires current loads capable of sinking large current and dissipating substantial amounts of power. A simple but accurate current load can be built using just a ...

Abstract: Cascaded converters need to be tightly regulated to have better system performance and faster dynamic response. One of the major issues in cascaded converters is that they behaves as a ...

An advanced high speed power supply tester using the Analog Discovery to generate a test waveform and observe the power supply behaviour. Take 2 There are some improvements, so let’s go through the ...

This dummy-load circuit, which is useful for testing power supplies and power amplifiers, is based on the Maxim MAX6006 voltage-reference IC and MAX480 operational amplifier. This dummy-load circuit ...

Abstract: In the process of battery charging, the equivalent resistance may change from several ohm to several hundred ohms, so the charging mode of constant current first and then constant voltage is ...

Suppose that you need to test a 1.5V, AA-size alkaline battery. You can apply a short circuit and measure current, or you can measure open-circuit voltage, but neither method properly tests the ...

The boost converter feeding a constant power load (CPL) is a non-minimum phase system that is prone to the destabilizing effects of the negative incremental resistance of the CPL and presents a major ...
