6
Operate the electronic load in constant resistance mode, and set its
resistance to 2.5
Ω
. Ensure that the U3606A is operating within the
specified limit and protection values. If not, adjust the electronic load
by reducing the resistance so that the voltage drops slightly until the
U3606A is operating within the specified limit and protection values.
7
Adjust the AC voltage source to the low line voltage limit. Divide the
voltage drop (reading on the digital multimeter) across the current
monitoring resistor by its resistance. Record the output current reading
on the digital multimeter.
8 Within a few seconds after step 7 , adjust the AC voltage source to the
high line voltage limit. Record the output current reading on the digital
multimeter.
9
Compare the difference between the measurement results to the
appropriate test limits shown in
Table 5- 14 .
CC noise effect
This test measures the RMS output current in the frequency range from
20 Hz to 1 MHz.
1
Turn off the instrument and connect a 2.5
Ω
fix resistive load between
the front panel (red) and (black) output terminals (see
Figure 5- 11 on page 151 ).
2
Connect an AC/DC converter to the fix resistive load and a 50
Ω
feed- thru termination to the AC/DC converter. Connect a differential
amplifier to the 50
Ω
feed- thru termination (see Figure 5- 11 on
page 151 ).
3
Configure the AC/DC converter as follows:
i
Set the range to 5 A/V.
ii
Set the coupling to AC.
