More short videos like this pls! Even in a tiny bit more details 5-10mins for example. But excellent work Daniel & team! The ideal would be 50% of videos about your products and things to do on them / features in real world uses etc. And the other 50% of videos just like this on general electronics (but not too basic) that use your kit but don’t explicitly bang the Keysight drum 👍 Keep up the good work.

This electronic load is sick!

A programmable power supply, multi meter and electronic load are key tools I use on a lot of project. My electronic load has an option to discharge a battery and measure the total mAh rating. Together with a programmable power supply and some scripts I wrote, I can charge and discharge batteries to check the real capacity. Being able to measure not only line and load regulation but also the efficieny at different loads, combined with the option to create a graph of this using a few scripts, makes documenting my design much easier than without those tools. During development, testing cycles with charging, stand by and operating modes of products are invaluable. After initial calibration of my charger circuit, the battery itself and the electronics it takes me no longer than one or two hours to make fairly accurate estimates about charge and operation times of battery driven products I develop.

That's pretty cool, I have a far more manual solution, take cheap usb power banks and insert one of those super affordable constant current usb loads (or use resistors if you prefer) with a dc barrel jack tacked on to easily swap batteries, then once the power bank dies I can use a hobby charger or my non-programmable PSU to charge cells and tell me the capacity. Also, just to mention, I don't develop products, I just like experimenting with solar and putting battery packs together.

I should also do a video on this (and publish my code) to show how and why I do this and what the advantages are. Too bad I only have Siglent tools to work with but these were the only instruments within my budget that have LXI and SCPI that I could afford. I don't know if SCPI commands are universal among different brands, or even different series. I'd love to share my scripts with the community so these can evolve into more useful tools for all of us.

That´s a bit too complicated for me, I just stick to the smell test...

more DC / power videos please @Keysight Labs

I did not even know there were machines that could do that! Those are really cool and I like the added oscilloscope built in for those measurements.

Great demo! Thank as always Keysight.

Good information. I'm not that conversant with hardware design issues, but this seems pretty important to know, and I'm happy to have learned it.

Learned something new today. Thanks

I loved that tiny hand

Great instruments. I imagine how the right one puts a load on my bank account and draws that on diagram. Bet the recovery time will be insane. BTW, does any Keysight device support Relocation function? I mean if I'm an engineer with almost 10 years of FPGA, SW and electronics experience, but I am in Russia, so I'm pressing Relocation button and BOOM! I'm an engineer at Keysight. Sounds great, isn't it?

looking forward to the teardown of that electronic load, it looks really really well built, the best I've ever seen on the market.

Those are nice quick tests. Stress test the DUT for a few hours at 110 percent of its rated capacity to see if will hold up. Data recording to see when and if it fails.

I'd love if this video was just a synopsis to a much longer video where you actually set up and do all those tests. I admit that it'd probably not be enough to make me run immediately for buying my (next) Keysight just for the sake of it, but I can promise I'd still be watching a Keysight video with a little bit more of bigclivedotcom zen.

Thank you! We love our community but also would love to have more folks!

do you have a distributor in Canada?

Probably should have been (a) measuring the voltage *right* at the input of the converter for the line regulation test with an extra multimeter, and (b) measuring the voltage *right* at the output of the converter for the load regulation test with an extra multimeter, or even better, the DC Load's sense lines. I know this was a simple overview and intro, but this is only a small effort to make it much more controlled, consistent, and proper.

nice !

Omg awesome

Can anyone help? Previous years entry to Win tech?? I had to enter all my details and profession etc. Is it correct this year, I just click on the 2 boxes? 1 entry, 2 for exclusive access?? Ta

If it says it can be in 24v vehicles / boats the voltage of the dynamo goes up to 28v and a little more, and that is what the equipment is getting.

That power supply looks intimidating; I've only ever seen ones with just two spinny knobs and a numeric display.

If really crappy DC-DC converters are you thing, check out a KZread channel called DiodeGoneWild.

I hope you can make a video about using pc psu for Charging car battery or maby how you can do this, since what i think is that they can suply 12v and high Current but i dont think it has Backward current/votl safety and also it sends it constant so it can get hot or hurt the battery or destroy it?, and maby (how what and why) dc to dc converters :D

Yes, you would need a dc-dc converter to increase voltage to 14.4V to charge a 12V battery, As there is no backfeed protection then you would need the voltage even higher to compensate for a blocking diode (usually 0.6V) If you are serious about building your own charger then I would suggest you use it outdoors, burning a shed down is bad... Burning your house down is far, far worse!

@@StigDesign ah, OK, now I get it, not from scratch but using a dead booster pack, Yes, that would probably work as the booster pack will probably run off a 12V battery that is discharged as far as 11V or so, you may be able to find an instruction manual that will tell you what the exact low cut-off voltage is for the booster pack, from my experience (extremely limited!) it is usually 11.5V, 11V or 10.5V (so you don't kill the battery, lead acid car/SLA batteries don't recover well from deep discharge) Solar panels usually output around 17V or so at maximum power point and alternators can be high as well, you may need to limit voltage, So you should be good with a 12V PC psu, these don't usually dip down much under load but I'm totally serious about the 'Not in the house' bit, many electronics tinkerers have burnt their houses down for less... Good luck with the project and stay safe! Don't forget to use all of the 12V (yellow) and ground (black) wires ganged in multiples or you could have problems pulling power out of it and cause overheating issues, P. S. I'm no expert so please double check with anyone you know who deals with electronics for a different perspective

@2:24 That was scummy as giving your verdict for 1 frame in the video of text Daniel! So here it for the comment section to read: "Daniel's Take: this is not a great solution for a car, because your car battery idles around 12.5V, and is around 14V while the car is running. Since the output voltage started dropping hard after 16V, it would impact your phone charging or other USB powered devices. This is why this type of testing is important. If you were relying on this for your device to run and didn't check first it could get you into trouble!"

Lame use of good devices. What about the sense lines to check if the device really receives the 12V or if your wires introduce too much drop? 3.2A is quite a lot. When you drop the input voltage the input wires need to carry more current to compensate!
