DC Evaluation of DC-DC Converter
This two-pager outlines an example of load regulation and load transient response characterization for an off-the-shelf switching mode DC-DC converter.
Load regulation
This converts an inputted DC voltage into a stable DC output voltage even if the output current is varying.
Load transient response
This is the variation or glitching that occurs in the output when the output load undergoes transient changes.
A dual-channel SMU (Source/Measure Unit) such as the B2902B or B2912B is an ideal choice for these types of measurements.
