To estimate the power consumption of your system, you have to read the power
dissipation at the desired output current. Afterwards this value has to be multiplied
with the duty cycle.
Example:
Rectangle wave with a duty cycle of 20 %
Desired output current = 5 A
Desired compliance voltage = 10 V
(Resulting Pd from the graph is 8 W/1A)
Power dissipation = 8 W/1 A * 5 A *0.2 = 8 W
The
manual mode
(Man.) is appropriate for pulsed signals such square wave. In
this mode, LDP-CWL 12-20 can achieve rise times less than 4.8 µs at an output
