Atec Chroma-63600 Series - Manual

Programmable
DC Electronic Load
Chroma's 63600 series DC electronic loads are
designed for testing multi-output AC/DC power
supplies, DC/DC converters, chargers, batteries,
server power supplies, and power electronic
components. They are excellent for research,
development, produc tion, and incoming
inspection applications.
The 63600's state of the art design uses DSP
technology to simulate non-linear loads using
a unique CZ operation mode allowing realistic
loading behavior.
The 63600 series can draw its rated current under
very low voltage (0.4V typical). This unique feature
guarantees the best loading performance for
modern Point-of-Load conditions and fuel cells.
The 63600 series can simulate a wide range of
dynamic loading applications, with programmable
load levels, slew rates, duration, and conducting
voltage. The 63600 also has a dynamic sweep
function to meet the test requirements of ATX
power supplies. The instrument allows up to 100
sets of system operating status which can be
stored in the EEPROM and recalled instantly for
automated testing application.
Real time measurement of voltage and current
are integrated into each 63600 load module using
a 16-bit measurement circuit with three current
ranges. The user can perform online voltage
measurements and adjustments or simulate short
circuit tests using the simple keypad on the front
panel.
With the VFD display and rotary knob, the 63600
loads offer versatile front panel operation. Users
are able to control the 63600 family remotely via
Ethernet, USB, or GPIB interface.
Also included in the 63600 are self-diagnostic
routines and full protections against OP, OC, OT
and alarm indicating OV, reverse polarity. This
ensures the quality and reliability of the 63600 and
provides protection to units under test.
