CHROMA ATE INC. Programmable AC Source 61500/61600 Series Product Manager: Galen Chou
Outline 1. What is programmable AC source ? 2. What is user’s need ? 3. What do they test with AC source ? 4. Functions of Chroma AC sources
A Primitive AC Source 1. Not easy to setup 2. Inconvenient to use 3. No protection Power Meter Function Generator Transformer C Power Amplifier C
Power Stage Output Stage Input Stage Waveform Generator, Control and Measurement Units User Interface AC Source Structure AC Input AC Output User
A/D Power Stage D/A Power Stage A/D Power Stage D/A Power Stage AC Source Power Stages Linear type, a transformer on output, high impedance Line Input AC Output A transformer on input, weight is heavy Line Input AC Output
A/D Power Stage D/D Power Stage D/A Power Stage Chroma’s AC Source Advantage Chroma Line Input AC Output 1. No low -frequency transformer, lighter than others 2. Standard PFC input, save power and less interference to main 3. No transformer on output, low impedance
Zo AC Source Chroma’s AC Source Advantage Output impedance: Zo = Ro + Lo High impedance: Voltage drop, Current inhibit, High frequency current filter, not good for testing IEC61000-3-2 The lab doesn’t use the AC source with a transformer on output.
What is users’ need ? Basic : (61500/61600 Series) 1. Clean, pure and stable sine waveform AC power 2. Measurement : Power, voltage, current Monitor 3. Line regulation test (90 – 264V, 47 - 63Hz) 4. Simulation mains for all power systems in the world 230V/50Hz, 120V/60Hz, 100V/50Hz … 5. Auto-test (Remote control)
What is users’ need ? How much power of AC source dose user need? Example: Test 300W (output) power supply 1. Ask the efficiency: Input power = 300W/0.8 = 375W 2. Ask the Power Factor: Input VA = 375/0.75 = 500VA 3. Ask if test OPT: Max VA = 500VA x 1.3 = 650VA 4. Ask the low line : Max input current : 650VA/90V = 7.22A At least, the customer needs 61502/61602 (1KW) 5. Ask the inrush current: If 45Apeak is needed at 230V, then he needs 61504/61604 (2KW)
What is users’ need ? • Additional : (61500/61600 series) • Power Turn ON/OFF phase angle Setting • 90° Turn ON for inrush current test. • 2. Inrush Current Measurement (Delay time, Interval) • Voltage/Frequency Slew Rate Setting • a. Operate for range scanning (90V-264V 或 47H – 63Hz ) • b. Raising the voltage gradually, power on UUT • with less inrush current • 4. Voltage/Frequency Save and Recall ( One-key Recall)
61500/61600 Softpanel Function Auto Run: Programming for long time test (On/Off or Burn-in)
61500/61600 Softpanel Function Report Function : Data Recording stored in a File
What else is users’ need ? Only testing the specification of input power is not enough to verify the UUT. Simulating the power like real world is the way to get better quality and stability. Advance Test : (61500 series only) 1. Transient Voltage Simulation 2. Distorted Waveform Simulation
Transient Output Different kind of transient output: Sag Surge Frequency Variation Cycle Dropout
Influence of Transient Output Example : Power supply of DVD player +5V to memory +3.3V to CPU +12V to driver When cycle dropout occurs, output voltage will drop then back to normal level. The machine might shut down because of improper dropping rate of voltage. (Memory might be reset, but CPU might work as usual. )
