5. Set the oscilloscope as follows:
a. 1 mV/division
b. 1 MΩ input resistance
c. 20 MHz bandwidth limit
d. AC coupled
e. Line trigger
f. 2 ms/div
g. Set to measure V pk-pk and VRMS
6. Set the oscilloscope probe to 1X mode.
7. Set the channel under test to the 100% full scale output voltage.
8. Set the channel under test to the 100% full scale output current.
9. Turn the DUT output on.
Do not touch the load resistor. The load resistor may become hot enough to cause burns.
10. Enter the oscilloscope measurements into the table for checking Noise at 7 MHz.
This completes the verification procedure for one channel. If needed, return to step 1 to run through
the procedure for the next channel.
Check Voltage Noise (20 MHz)
Equipment required
High-current hookup wire
