Avoid damage to your DUT with
APS protection
When you are testing costly DUTs,
integrating power protection mea-
sures into the test system is critical.
Using instrumentation with built-in
protection features provides a huge
benefit when DUT protection is
required. Here’s why:
Built-inprotectionfeatures,such
as broken sense line detection,
reduce the amount of protection
hardware needed in the test
system reducing complexity
and development time.
With protection features integrated
into the instrumentation, the
amount of hardware needed
for the test system is reduced,
which in turn lowers test system
support costs.
With protection measures imple-
mented in hardware rather than
test system software, error
conditions can be detected and
handled much faster, reducing
the likelihood of the DUT
sustaining major damage.

Notes:
1
Resistance programming accuracy varies with output current. For example, for an N7970A unit at 0.1 Ω with
a 50 A transient, accuracy is: (0.1 Ω*0.06%) + (1.6 mΩ*A/50 A) = 92 µΩ.
