How Choosing the Right Programmable AC Power Source Can Make or Break Your Test Strategy

AC power source chroma

Choosing the right programmable AC power source is critical to the success of your test strategy. From simulating global voltage/frequency standards to replicating grid disturbances, the right source gives you the control to test smarter, faster, and with more confidence. The wrong choice can limit your flexibility, slow down production, or even miss critical failures.

Converting DSO oversampled waveform captures to user defined waveforms

Engineers may have captured a distorted voltage waveform at a particular location because it causes their device under test (DUT) to malfunction using a digital storage oscilloscope (DSO) with the intent to reproduce the voltage waveform in a laboratory environment for product improvement. The Chroma 61500 series or 61800 series programmable AC voltage supplies are capable of reproducing complex user defined AC voltage waveforms. A waveform cycle can be imported from a Microsoft® Office Excel file with 1024 sample points. Up to six user defined waveforms can be stored at a time on the Chroma source.
