Improve Debug Efficiency and Avoid Errors

Application Notes

Issues when using conventional voltage/current sources

  • It is difficult to check the waveform you have specified before applying it, which can have unfortunate consequences:
    – DUTs may be damaged due to the application of improper current or voltage
    – Even if the DUT is not damaged, you have to waste time repeating the measurement 
  • On conventional power sources, it is not easy to check the actual voltage or current waveform. Verifying a waveform typically requires another instrument (such as an oscilloscope). The need for additional instrument to verify the waveform adds unwanted cost and complexity to your benchtop setup.
