This article appeared in Evaluation Engineering and has been published here with permission. It is a well-known fact that electronic loads are essential in power-supply and battery-testing ...

Having been around since the early 1960s, electronic loads evolved out of the need to emulate real world applications in testing power supplies as well as batteries, and now fuel cells. The first ...

Many devices today operate at higher voltages, such as silicon-carbide semiconductors, dc distribution systems, electric vehicle batteries, and power subsystems. When devices can source power, they ...

When it comes to providing suitable power, grounding, communications, and environmental control for a facility that has significant amounts of susceptible electronic equipment, there are obviously ...

EDN Labs (well…the part of it in my basement) has always been a bit short on power sources (and even shorter on electronic loads). A 5A buck-boost module recently caught my eye, and I’ve decided to ...

Confusion continues to surround the use, performance, and NEC requirements of isolated ground (IG) wiring. Can it be used anywhere, or is it restricted to electronic load equipment? Does it really ...

Product Briefing Outline: Pasan SA has introduced a new electronic load that is more accurate and offers several additional features for the testing of solar cells and modules. This electronic load ...

[Kerry Wong] had some extreme MOSFETs (IXTK90N25L2) and decided to create a high current electronic load. The result was a two-channel beast that can handle 50 A per channel. Together, they can sink ...

[tinfever] needed a high-power benchtop electronic load for an upcoming project, and by their own admission decided foolishly to build their own. And we’re glad they did. The thing is, whilst this isn ...
