Load Capacitor Response Times
When programming with an external capacitor, voltage response time may be longer than that for
purely resistive loads. Use the following formula to estimate the additional up-programming response
time:
Response Time =
(Added Output Capacitor)X(Change in Vout)
(Current Limit Setting)−(Load Current)
Note that programming into an external output capacitor may cause the power system to briefly enter
constant current or constant power operating mode, which adds additional time to the estimation.
Ferrite Core Installation - for Keysight N6792A only
Compliance to radio frequency interference (RFI) standards requires a ferrite core to
be installed on the load leads of the load module. The core is supplied with the
module and does not affect the functionality of the module.
1. Locate the core along the length of the cables and pass the load cables through the core once
2. Clip the ferrite core onto the load cables as close as possible to the output connector. The
recommended distance from the connector to the core is 4 cm or less.
3. Attach the tywrap to the load wires to prevent the core from sliding away from the connector.
