An array or bank of load resistors is often required for testing power products, characterization of solar panels, and many other applications that require evaluation under various well-defined loads.

This article is dedicated to Jim Williams who several years ago (2006) wrote an article in EDN regarding the need of a good lab apparatus to qualify the behavior of voltage regulators for compliance ...

Part 1 of this series discussed what characteristics make up a good load slammer. This article discusses how to use load slammers effectively to design, evaluate, debug, and validate your on-board ...

Semiconductor memory, card readers, microprocessors, disk drives, piezoelectric devices, and digital systems create transient loads that voltage regulators must service. Ideally, regulator output ...
