Constant Current (CC) Verifications
Constant Current Test Setup
Follow the general setup instructions in the General Measurement Techniques‚
on page 178, and the specific instructions will be given in the following
paragraphs.
Current Programming and Readback Accuracy
This test verifies that the current programming and GPIB or RS-232 readback
functions are within specifications. Note that the readback values over the
remote interface should be identical to those displayed on the front panel. The
accuracy of the current monitoring resistor must be 0.01% or better.
You should program the power supply over the remote interface for this test
to avoid round off errors.
1 Turn off the power supply and connect a 0.01
Ω
current monitoring resistor
(R
M1
) across the output to be tested and a digital voltmeter across the current
monitoring resistor (R
M1
) as shown in Figure A-1.
2 Turn on the power supply. Select the output to be tested and the low voltage
range (8V/3A)
†
and then enable the output by sending the commands:
INST:SEL {OUT1|OUT2}
VOLT:RANG P8V
(E3646A model)
OUTP ON
3 Program the output voltage to full scale rated voltage (8.0 V)
†
and output
current to zero amps by sending the commands:
VOLT 8
(E3646A model)
CURR 0
4 Divide the voltage drop (DVM reading) across the current monitoring resistor
(R
M
) by its resistance to convert to amps and record this value (I
O
). This value
should be within the limit of (0 A ± 10 mA). Also, note that the
CC
,
Adrs
,
Limit
,
and
Rmt
annunciators are on.
5 Readback the output current over the remote interface by sending the
command:
MEAS:CURR?
