What is an AC power supply?

common problems 6360

An AC power supply is responsible for providing AC power to the load. The power input can be either AC or DC. You need an AC power supply because the power from the wall outlet does not meet the specifications of the load. In order for the load to operate properly, you need to transform the AC power supply to tune the AC power from the supply to the voltage, current, and frequency required by the device. This can be accomplished by raising or lowering the voltage and then filtering the signal.

You can use an AC power supply for testing. The AC power supply can emulate grid outages, harmonics, surges, or other events that may cause the device under test (DUT) to fail.

  • What are the different types of oscilloscopes?

    653

    All modern oscilloscopes are digital storage oscilloscopes (DSOs) that use digital signal processing to capture and display analog signals. If the oscilloscope has the ability to observe these signals simultaneously in the digital domain, it is a mixed-signal oscilloscope (MSO). If the oscilloscope has a built-in spectrum analyzer function, it is a mixed-domain oscilloscope (MDO), although this term is less common. ,,...

    Signal analyzers are capable of measuring the amplitude and phase of an input signal at a single frequency. The Signal Analyzer combines the large dynamic range of a swept-tuned spectrum analyzer with the power of a Vector Signal Analyzer (VSA) to perform in-channel measurements, such as Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) measurements, which require both magnitude and phase information. The VSAs are available in a wide range of sizes and sizes.

  • How to read the measurement results of a digital multimeter?

    441

    Most handheld or benchtop digital multimeters display measurements digitally. The number of digits displayed on the screen usually represents the measurement resolution of the digital multimeter. Resolution is the smallest detail that a digital multimeter can quantitatively determine when making a measurement. Therefore, the more digits a digital multimeter displays, the higher its resolution. Handheld digital multimeters are typically capable of displaying three-and-a-half and four...
