1.8MW Bidirectional Power Supply Accelerates the HVDC Era

Chroma 1.8MW Bidirectional Power Supply Accelerates the HVDC Era

In AI workloads, instantaneous power surges demand uncompromised reliability, as any brief drop in power can undermine GPU computation. To address this demand, Chroma developed the 62450D-2000HL, a bidirectional DC power supply and regenerative electronic load purpose-engineered for high-voltage, high-power testing.

HVDC AI Server Power Testing: Chroma DC Load Enables 1.44MW-Level Verification

HVDC AI Server Power Testing: Chroma DC Load Enables 1.44MW-Level Verification

Whether it’s a power supply unit (PSU) rated at tens of kilowatts, a power shelf at hundreds of kilowatts, or a power rack reaching megawatt levels, all must meet stringent transient response and current slew rate requirements. Chroma 63200A DC Electronic Load series offers single-unit power ratings from 2kW to 24kW, and supports synchronous dynamic operation of up to 60 units for a maximum rated power of 1.44MW.

Chroma Grid Simulator Applied to AI Server ITIC Testing

Chroma Grid Simulator Applied to AI Server ITIC Testing

Most ITIC test conditions (i.e. the yellow and green zones on the curve) are easy to achieve with Chroma test equipment. The 500% voltage surge test in the red zone poses a more significant challenge. To help users accelerate product development and validation, we conducted simulations using 105kVA Chroma 61800-100 Grid Simulators.

Leveraging Certificate Management Tools for Comprehensive EVSE Plug & Charge (PnC) Testing to ISO 15118

Leveraging Certificate Management Tools for Comprehensive EVSE Plug & Charge (PnC) Testing

Chroma’s PowerPro 5 software, part of its comprehensive EV test system solution, features a Certificate Management Tool that allows users to load specific certificate files (*.p12, *.pem). Using designated OEM agreements and contract certificates, the software automatically performs public/private key encryption and decryption during the test to achieve the handshake and payment processes required for ISO 15118 PnC testing.
