What is a benchtop DC power supply?

February 14, 2025common problems 5460

A benchtop DC power supply is a power supply that is mounted to an engineer's workbench for use. It usually has a large, legible display and user interface to allow the engineer to easily achieve full control of the power supply from the front panel. Users can also control modern benchtop power supplies through software. In addition, engineers can easily access the output terminals from the front.

The Variable Benchtop Power Supply is a convenient tool for testing circuits because you can adjust the voltage at any time. If your project has specific voltage requirements or you haven't finished the power supply portion of the design, a bench power supply can help.

What is a function/waveform generator?
February 14, 2025 572
A function generator is an electronic test device that generates a variety of standard waveforms for a device under test (DUT), such as sine, square, ramp, or sawtooth waveforms. In circuit design and circuit boards, testing often requires the use of controlled signals to simulate routine operations. Testing physical systems and sensors often requires stable and reliable signals that are as low as a few microvolts and may be as high as...

How to use the current probe
February 14, 2025 684
Want to know how to use the current probe? Please first understand the following basic usage of the current probe and precautions for use. Since electricity is invisible, it is not possible to immediately determine whether a malfunction has occurred. In some cases, current measurements are required on a daily basis to prevent malfunctions, as well as to identify the cause of malfunctions when they do occur. Digital multimeters, clamp meters, and current probes can be used...

How to use an arbitrary waveform generator?
February 14, 2025 549
Using an arbitrary waveform generator, test engineers can verify the design of a circuit in just a few steps: (1) activate the output control; (2) select the waveform to be generated; (3) connect the output to the device under test; and (4) verify the performance of the device under test using an oscilloscope. The following is an example of the design of the output control circuit.

What is the difference between an oscilloscope and a spectrum analyzer/signal analyzer?
February 14, 2025 262
We usually use time as a frame of reference, focusing on when certain specific events will occur. This includes electrical events. Oscilloscopes allow you to view the instantaneous value of a particular electrical event (or the voltage value of some other event converted by an appropriate transducer) over time. In other words, we can use an oscilloscope to view the waveform of a signal in the time domain. Fourier theory...
