The purpose of this Application Note is to explain how the Slew Rate Control operates using the 6310A series loads.

Chroma 63200 series electronic loads can be brought up to date by updating firmware when no hardware change has been made. ADLS software is required to do firmware update.

Dynamic Loading and Transient Response testing is a common test requirement for Power Supplies, DC DC Converters and Battery Chargers. Dynamic and Dynamic Sweep tests are used to confirm the response times of the DUT when load is changed suddenly. It requires a DC Electronic Load and an Oscilloscope. Capturing the voltage and current waveforms and recording the information requires working knowledge of the DC Load and the Oscilloscope and proper triggering to capture the exact moment the transient occurs.

This application note provides design equations that can be used to assess the capability of an electronic load to sustain a maximum current at a minimum voltage in light of overall system resistance characteristics.

This application note describes how to determine the minimum voltage in each operating range.

This Application Note will show the manual steps to set the load for Sine Wave Dynamic and show a list of the SCPI commands used to program the Sine Wave Dynamic load.
