SPOTLIGHT
Low-power device design and test:
The three criteria your power supply must meet
Today’s R&D and design validation engineers find
themselves working more and more on low-power
devices, modules, and products. That’s particularly
true now that the burgeoning Internet of Things
promises to connect more than 50 billion devices by
2020. These designs use battery power or DC power
from a small AC adapter and often include wireless
communications to transmit operating data.
But as your designs change, so should your DC power
supply. Modern low-power designs call for power
supplies that meet new requirements for device
protection, low noise, and low-current measurement.
That’s why Keysight engineered the compact E36100
Series programmable DC power supplies—to power
your designs safely and quietly during manual tests or
automated sequences.
Device protection
Low-power devices under test (DUT) are more
susceptible to excess voltage and current. These
DUTs require both overvoltage (OVP) and overcurrent
protection (OCP) to prevent damage. OVP shuts down
the power supply when the voltage exceeds nominal
values; OCP does the same during a short circuit or
overcurrent event.
With traditional power supplies, engineers frequently
designed external circuits for DUT protection. But with
the E36100 Series, the output starts to drop less than
1.5 ms after an overvoltage or overcurrent condition
occurs. At the same time, built-in over-temperature
protection keeps your power supply safe.
In addition, by displaying multiple settings
simultaneously instead of burying them in menus, the
E36100 Series lets you see your exact overvoltage and
overcurrent settings—before you turn output power
on and potentially destroy a valuable DUT, along with
your project schedule.
Low noise
Power supply noise, in the form of added and
unwanted electronic interference, can also impact
a DUT’s behavior. With traditional larger power
supplies, engineers often use external circuits to filter
noise. But thanks to their diminutive size, the 2U
¼-rack E36100 Series models inherently produce a lot
less noise. The power supply itself is also acoustically
much quieter, meaning it’s easier for you to live with
on your bench.
Low-current range
One other critical issue is that traditional power
supplies often cannot accurately monitor current in a
low-power DUT. Engineers previously used a DMM to
measure such low current—but doing so meant extra
wires, an additional instrument, two displays, and two
instrument setups.

Table 1. The E36102A can measure just a few mA of current on the
small-current range, which isn’t possible on the standard range.
The E36100 Series offers a low-current range that lets
you measure a few mA of current, which isn’t possible
on the standard range. This low-current range
enables fast measurements without the hassle, space,
or expense of extra equipment. Table 1 shows the
E36102A power supply specs for both ranges.
Other advantages
The E36100 Series also provides several benefits good
for testing low-power devices or any other DUTs:
standard LAN (LXI Core) and USB connectivity; a highcontrast OLED display you can see from anywhere
on your bench; and Keysight BenchVue software
to control the supply, visualize voltage and current
output, log data, and annotate captured data.
