Use the Voltage and Current knobs,

High #####W

 

arrow keys, or numeric keypad to

 

 

enter a value. The value must be

 

 

within 0W to 103% of the unit’s rated

 

 

power.

ENTER

Low #####W

 

 

 

 

The Maximum setting is saved and

 

 

the Minimum setting appears.

Use the Voltage knob, arrow keys, or

Low #####W

 

numeric keypad to enter a value. The

 

 

value must be within 0W to 103% of

Slew Rate The slew rate is calculated as a function of change in the output voltage and a given time interval. The maximum slew rate is 1% rated voltage/150us. The slew rate is saved upon power off and restored at power on. Output ON/OFF and shutdown are not affected by the programmable slew rate. These functions have a slew rate of 1%/20ms.

The range of output voltage is 5% - 0.1% of rated voltage. The range of time interval is 1.5 s - 150 us.

The negative slew rate is limited by the discharge rate of the output capacitors.

During current share, slaves operate with their default slew rate. The master operates at its programmed slew rate. Hence a programmable slew rate for the system is achieved. However, this slew rate is limited by the speed of the control loop. The slaves will return to their programmed slew rate when they exit current share slave operation.
