Performing DC-DC Converter Test Using DC Power Analyzers

Application Notes

Power system technology used in modern electronic equipment faces extreme challenges due to the need for increased system power efficiency, especially in battery powered devices. The main system block involved in power conversion and delivery is the DC-DC converter, which converts DC power from an unregulated to a regulated voltage. Many designers want to verify or characterize the performance of the DC-DC converter in terms of efficiency, load and line regulation, power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) analysis, transient response, ripple, and turn-on time. Performing these tests on DC-DC converters in a benchtop environment; however, requires different test instruments such as a digital multimeter (DMM), oscilloscope, power supply, and electronics load. The main challenge here is in being able to properly synchronize the instruments to execute the various needed measurements.
