Integrated Electronic Loads & Sources

S300 Series MiniTesters

• A one-box test solution replacing several instruments
• Flexible configuration
• Executes full test programs and logs results

The S300 Series MiniTester is a ready-to-run test station comprised of electronic loads & sources combined with a recording/playback test programming capability. It eliminates the need to integrate individual electronic loads and sources in order to perform basic testing at the board or power conversion product level. Its ability to store test sequences and then run complete programs from the front panel provides the immediate benefits of automation without the hassles of connecting, interfacing and then controlling disparate instruments from multiple suppliers.

A One-Box Test Solution

The MiniTester replaces stand-alone electronic loads, sources, digital voltmeters, current meters, power meters, along with the associated "rats nest" of interconnect wiring. This is accomplished all within a chassis that accepts a wide assortment of modular electronic loads and sources. Each module contains its own built-in, precision measurement circuitry. Model S310 is intended for DC-input testing. Model S320 is intended for both AC & DC-input testing. Either unit can be used in a stand-alone, bench-top application or as a GPIB-controlled subsystem within a larger test station.

Flexible Configuration

The flexibility to test a wide variety of products is accomplished in two ways. First is the unique six-slot chassis that will accept any combination of modular dc supplies and/or electronic loads. The second flexibility enhancement is the unusually wide operating ranges of modules, typically twice that of industry standards. This combination of interchangeable modules and exceptionally wide ranges assure users the ability to meet almost any power stimulus requirement now and in the future.

Executes Full Test Programs and Logs Results

The ability to create and run automatic test programs highlights the powerful macro-recording and playback capabilities of the MiniTester. This keystroke macro recorder combined with built-in test algorithms, allows non-programmers to automate complex series of instrument operations and measurements. Up to 128 test programs, each having 100 test steps can be created in this manner. Playback of a saved test program then becomes a one-keystroke operation. Test measurements or PASS/FAIL indications are shown on the front panel display and may also be logged to an optional printer or PC.
