2. Vary LOAD1 from 0 – 1.5Adc
3. Vary LOAD2 from 0 – 2.5Adc
4. Vary V
IN
from 9.6Vdc to 13.2Vdc
5. Decrease V
IN
to 0Vdc
6. Decrease LOAD1 to 0A

Output Ripple Voltage Measurement Procedure
See Section 5.4 for more information on measuring output ripple.
1. Increase V
IN
from 0V to 12Vdc
2. Adjust LOAD1 to desired load between 0Adc and 1.5Adc
3. Adjust LOAD2 to desired load between 0Adc and 2.5Adc
4. Adjust V
IN
to desired load between 9.6Vdc and 13.2Vdc
5. Connect Oscilloscope Probe to TP3 and TP4 or TP18 and TP19 as shown in
6. Measure Output Ripple
7. Decrease V
IN
to 0Vdc
8. Decrease LOAD1 to 0A
9. Decrease LOAD2 to 0A

Control Loop Gain and Phase Measurement Procedure
1. Connect 1kHz–1MHz Isolation Transformer to TP6 and TP8 as show in
2. Connect Input Signal Amplitude Measurement Probe (Channel A) to TP8 as shown in
3. Connect Output Signal Amplitude Measurement Probe (Channel B) to TP6 as shown in
4. Connect Ground Lead of Channel A and Channel B to TP5 and TP7 as shown in
5. Inject 30mV or less signal across R1 through Isolation Transformer
6. Sweep Frequency from 1kHz to 1MHz with 10Hz or lower post filter
7. Control Loop Gain can be measured by
8. Control Loop Phase is measured by the Phase difference between Channel A and Channel B
9. Control Loop for Channel 2 can be measured by making the following substitutions
(a) Change TP6 to TP16
(b) Change TP8 to TP14
(c) Change TP5 to TP17
(d) Change TP7 to TP15
10. Disconnect Isolation Transformer before making any other measurements (Signal Injection into
Feedback may interfere with accuracy of other measurements)
