Automated validation of power supply design

Validating power design requires running tests to evaluate complex systems thoroughly under various operating and environmental conditions. For test engineers, it is important to reduce the test time and ensure the tests are reliable. Design validation engineers value the test per unit time aspect of throughput rather than the number of devices per unit time. An automated test equipment (ATE) system power supply with built-in measurement capabilities and multiple channels can help reduce test time and ensure reliable power tests.

For design validation engineers, accelerating testing reduces the time required to perform test iterations with varying design parameters and operating conditions. Automated test equipment power supplies with built-in current and voltage measurement and programmers, status readback, and service request interrupts reduce the time required to assemble the power subsystem for a test. Automated test equipment power supplies that can store and recall instrument setup states with a single command help save time when executing the test sequence automatically or by triggers.

Design validation power test solution

Reducing design validation test time requires an ATE power supply system solution that can conduct complex or time-consuming tests automatically. The Keysight ATE power supply system features built-in voltage and current measurements, built-in voltage and current programmers, status readback, and service request interrupts in a single solution. Furthermore, it provides LXI-core capability and SCPI language and accelerates test times with rapid command processing and settling times. Paired with Keysight power supply modules, you can easily protect your design under test (DUT) during design validation tests.
