EXTERNAL

 

MODULATION

In

 

the 

external

 

modulation mode,

 

the 

Dynaload 

acts

 

as

 a

 

constant

 

current

 

load 

with

 

the

 

constant

 

current proportional

 

to

 the

 

external

 voltage

 

applied

 

to

 

TB1-1

 

and

 

TB1-2.

 

(TB1-2

is the

 return 

of the

 

external

 

modulating

 

voltage

 

and

 

is

 

internally

 

connected

 

to

 

the 

negative 

lead 

of

 

the Dynaload)

.

 

The 

Dynaload

 

will

 

program 

from

 

0-5A

 

as the

 external 

modulation 

voltage

 

is 

programmed

 

from

 

0-6V

 

if

 

the 

DC

 load 

adjustments

 

are

 

set

 

in

 

the

 

maximum 

clockwise

 position.

 The

 

programming

 

sensitivity 

may

 

be

 

reduced

 proportionately

 

by 

the

 front panel 

DC

 

load adjust

 

controls.

 

Turning

 

the

 

load

 

adjust 

counterclockwise

 

reduces

 the programming

 

sensitivity.

 

The input impedance 

of

 

the

 external 

modulation

 

terminals

 is 

approximately

 

10K 

ohms.

The

 

transient response of

 

the 

Dynaload

 

is determined by 

the

 

feedback 

loop characteristics

 of 

the

 constant 

current 

regulator

 to

 

achieve

 

precision programming. 

A

 

typical

 

transient

 

response

 

time

 

is

 

50 microseconds

 

for

 

any

 

change

 in

 

load.
