Intepro Systems is offering a 50MHz bandwidth load for testing point-of-load power converters. The stand-alone unit, called EL 2000 HS, works up to 40W, has a rise-time of 40A/µs, and can sink 20A from under 1V. To minimise inductance, wires to the unit-under-test are avoided. “Ever-higher switching speeds and lower operating voltages present unique challenges …
