Sleep Mode Current Monitoring
Many electronic products have power-saving or sleep modes. In this mode, the device
draws only enough power to be able to recognize a “wake-up” signal, and then execute
a smooth “wake-up”. The power drawn in this mode is a critical parameter, and the
ability to accurately monitor it is important. The accessory precision current shunt that
is supplied with option 020 is mounted in such a way to make it easy for you to replace
it with a precision resistor of your choice. By doing this, you can configure the system to
accurately monitor extremely low currents. This provides an easy way for you to profile
the current draw in all modes of your product’s operation. Since Keysight 6800C Series
AC power source/analyzers produce DC power as well as AC power, portable battery
operated products can also be tested with this configuration.
UPS (Uninterruptible Power Source) Testing
The dual power analyzer option provides many important benefits for UPS testing. Since
the key to correct UPS operation is having the output react properly to changes on
the input, being able to monitor the output relative to the input simplifies testing. For
exam¬ple, commands are available to enable calculation of UPS transfer time, and the
phase difference between the UPS input and output voltage. Keysight AC power source/
ana¬lyzers also have programmable output impedance, enabling the UPS designer to
verify product stability over a wide range of AC line impedance.
Test Suite for Avionics Equipment
Keysight AC power source/analyzers are well suited for testing equipment intended
for use in the avionics industry which operate at nominally 400 Hz. One of the special
requirements that many manufacturers in this industry must concern themselves with is
testing to meet RTCA DO-160 standards, which involve both AC and DC immunity tests.
Extensive Protection to Prevent Load Damage
In addition to overcurrent, overvoltage, overpower and overtemperature protection,
the 6800C Series offers output disconnect relays and remote inhibit capability (quickly
disabling the output of the AC power source/analyzers via a TTL signal) to protect the
device under test.
