AN 372-1
Power Supply Testing
An electronic load offers a broad
range of operating modes, providing
versatile loading configurations
needed for characterizing and
verifying dc power supply design
specifications.
p/n 5952-4190
AN 372-2
Battery Testing
An electronic load can be used to
discharge batteries of various
chemistries to determine actual
capacity, capacity retention, and
impedance.

AN 1246
Pulsed Characterization of Power
Semiconductors Using Electronic Loads
An electronic load eliminates the
self-heating problems associated
with measuring the on-state voltage
drop and transconductance (or cur-
rent gain) of power semiconductors.

AN 1293
Sequential Shunt Regulation
This sequential shunt regulation
is widely used for regulating the
satellite bus voltage, powered by
solar arrays. The E4350B/E4351B
solar array simulators (SAS) are
ideal for this type of application.

Considerations when selecting a
system power supply for mobile
communication device testing
Pulsed battery drain currents,
regulated charge currents, and
remote DUT (Device Under Test)
fixtures, dictate the need for
specialized power sourcing, loading,
and measurement capabilities for
testing mobile communications
devices. Many of these capabilities
are not available in general-purpose
system power supplies.
This guide will assist the test
system designer in selecting a
system power supply by properly
evaluating test system and power
supply needs that are unique to the
application and not immediately
obvious.

Optimizing Bluetooth
TM
Device Battery
Drain Measurements in Manufacturing
Battery operating time is a critical
parameter for portable devices.
This application note describes
the procedures that can be used
in manufacturing test to ensure
a minimum operating time for
portable Bluetooth
TM
devices.
