A lab power supply is more than just a tool—it's the foundation of reliable circuit testing. Whether you're debugging prototypes, designing new electronics, or running precise experiments, the right power supply ensures stable, accurate power delivery. Choosing the best one for your test bench means considering factors like voltage range, efficiency, and safety features. Let’s explore how to …
A switching power supply (often abbreviated SMPS for switched-mode power supply) is an electronic power converter known for efficiently transforming AC power into stable DC voltage through rapid switching techniques. But what exactly makes it 'switching,' and why has it become so essential for modern electronics?
Why Is It Called a “Switching” Power Supply?
Unlike linear power supplies, which …
Introduction
In many test and industrial applications, a single power supply may not provide enough current to meet system demands. Connecting power supplies in parallel is a practical solution that allows users to increase available current while maintaining a stable voltage. This technique can also improve system redundancy, reducing the risk of downtime due to power failures.
In this guide …
They are common challenges every test engineer is likely to face at some point: production demand is outpacing the capability of your test system, or you need to test more parameters simultaneously. Until now, you have needed to build more test systems requiring more test equipment. That has been true for high power applications in which multiple DC power supplies are required.
Applications …
