Ripple noise on the output voltage
This test measures the ripple voltage captured on the output terminal of the buck converter evaluation
board.
For this test, you will:
• Connect the 3 Ω load resistor to the output terminals of the buck converter
• Connect test leads to the output terminals of the buck converter
• Supply 12 V to the input terminals of the buck converter
• Reset the instrument
• Select the digitize voltage function and set sample rate to 1 Msamples per second with a sample
count of 100
• View the data the graph
• Turn on horizontal cursors to measure voltage ripple magnitude
Device connections
The connections for the ripple noise test are shown in the figure below.
