Using the fast dynamic load described in this Design Idea to test the transient response of a power system can reveal many critical operating characteristics. The voltage deviation resulting from a ...

Regardless of the system architecture, the circuit design, or the power levels involved, transient load current step testing is a critical aspect of power-system design, test, and verification.

This article will outline the ISS power system, starting with the Solar arrays and moving into stability analysis criteria of the rest of the power management system and loads. A pinpoint beam of ...

To ensure the stability of dc-dc converters, most power-system designers adhere to the common rule that input source impedance should be small compared to the converter's input impedance. Not all ...
