Power Analysis
Unlock the power analysis option for the SDS5000X series of oscilloscopes. Requires a 4 channel SDS5000X, DF2001A deskew fixture, and at least one current probe for complete functionality.
For a full list of features, see the SDS5000X Power Analysis Datasheet.
Power converter design has become an important part of electronic product development. Modern design needs have increased the importance of power supplies that have greater efficiency, more reliability, with lower electromagnetic emissions (EMI) than past designs. This is especially true for designs implementing Switch Mode Power Supplies (SMPS) that can be especially noisy. Highly specialized Power Design Engineers can measure many of the parameters of SMPS manually, but this is extremely time consuming and inconvenient. To help minimize time-to-market and maximize Engineering efficiency, the SIGLENT SDS5000X oscilloscope now offers a Power Analysis option to standardize, automate and speed measurements and simplify power supply testing.
