1.1 Introduction
The PA 5740 range of battery simulators is high performance power amplifi er
providing a stable and rugged power source for laboratory applications. The
amplifi er has been designed specifi cally to simulate battery supplies. Such as
12, 24 and 42 V vehicle electrical systems. It may be used on its own or inte-
grated with the Teseq Automotive EMC Test System consisting of
NSG 5000,
NSG 5200, NSG 5500, NSG 5600
(hereafter referred to as NSG 5000 series)
and
AutoStar software.
Designed to meet EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) immunity testing require-
ments for the automotive industry. Applicable standards include: ISO 7637,
ISO 16750, JASO D001, MIL-STD-461E, SAE J1113 as well as automobile manu-
facturer specifi cations.
Types of testing include supply voltage variations, dips and drops, ISO pulses
2b and 4,
load dump pulse, starting profi les, power cycling, battery recovery,
reset behaviour, fuel pump transient, conducted sine waves, ground shift, jump
start and over voltage, as well as providing a programmable DUT (device under
test) power source during all phases of testing.
