The Elgar SmartWave
TM
Models SW 5250A, SW 3500A, and SW 1750A use trans-
formerless, direct coupled amplifiers and a true arbitrary waveform generator based
controller. This technology allows you to create, edit and generate complex waveforms
with high DC content for critical ATE and power line disturbance simulation testing.
The SmartWave can create complex waveforms with high DC content for simulating
real world power irregularities, including phase controlled sub-cycle or multi-cycle
dropouts, spikes, sags, surges, frequency excursions, plus frequency and voltage
ramps (sweeps). The unit can also generate clipped waveforms, harmonic distortion,
high current inrush, and other complex waveshapes.
