Module Provides High and Low Voltage and Current for Auto Test

July 26th, 2007

The Teradyne DC90XP is a four-channel floating, high power voltage/current (V/I) source and measurement instrument for the FLEX(TM) and microFLEX(TM) test systems. The DC90XP is designed to meet the precision high power and high and low current test demands of the automotive, power management, industrial/consumer motor controller and power switch semiconductor markets.

The Teradyne DC90XP provides current pulses up to 10 A for a single channel and up to 160 A by paralleling channels. It also features:

• three low current ranges from 200uA to 200mA to minimize current switching,
• Direct Memory Access (DMA) to accelerate large block data transfers,
• user-selectable crossover modes that optimize response for different load conditions, and
• two Time Measurement Units per instrument measure time events to an accuracy of 500 ps with bandwidth up to 50 MHz.
