What is a benchtop DC power supply?

common problems 4670

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 are spectrum analyzers used for?

    624

    Spectrum analyzers measure the amplitude of an input signal versus frequency over the entire frequency range to determine the power of the signal. Spectrum analyzers are capable of performing tests such as noise figure and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) to characterize the performance of a device and its contribution to overall system performance. For more information, see the application guide Spectrum Analysis Basics. ,

  • What is the difference between an oscilloscope and a spectrum analyzer/signal analyzer?

    189

    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...
