VDD: load transient
circuit 5V supply. Accepts a supply voltage between 4.75V and 5.4V at
100mA
J37 (VDD) /
J41 (GND): Connect an external 5V power supply to these
connections to power the onboard load transient circuit.
Load EN: 0V to 3.3V square wave trigger input for the load transient
circuit. Applying 0V disables the transient load. Applying 3.3V enables the
transient load. Input voltage on this connection must not exceed VDD.
J38: J38 does not come preinstalled. An SMA connector must
be installed at J38 to allow the load transient circuit to be
used.
EXT DC LOAD: External DC load resistor or electronic load
connection.
J34: J34 does not come preinstalled. If using the load
transient circuit, a terminal block can be installed at J34 to
connect an external DC load for load transient testing.
V_LOAD: Measurement point for voltage drop across optional load
resistor R20
J33: The added
inductance from the load transient current loop can limit transient
rise times. For very fast transient tests, J33 is provided to
measure voltage drop across load resistor R20 and calculate load
current.
VOUT2 Load Transient
Current Loop: Measurement loop for current from VOUT2 into the load
transient circuit
IOUT_2: An
optional AC/DC oscilloscope current clamp probe can be connected
through this loop to monitor transient output current from channel
2. This loop is sized to accommodate many common probes capable of
accepting a 5mm conductor.
