6. Increase the DUT output voltage slowly by 0.01 V one step at a time until OVP is triggered. When
triggered, the output voltage abruptly drops below 1 V and an OVP error is indicated on the
display.
7. Enter the voltmeter reading (where OVP triggering occurred) in the
page B-8) table.
8. Reset OVP. Press the
Enter
key to clear the OVP error.
9. Set the OVP threshold to 25% of full-scale output voltage and repeat step 5 through step 7.
10. Set the OVP threshold to 50% of full-scale output voltage and repeat step 5 through step 7.
11. Set the OVP threshold to 75% of full-scale output voltage and repeat step 5 through step 7.
12. Set the OVP threshold to 90% of full-scale output voltage and repeat step 5 through step 7.
