Compliance Voltage and Current Range
The compliance voltage of a current source is the highest voltage into
which the current source can inject current. The formula for calculating
the compliance voltage of a current source is:
V = P
÷
I
where P is the VA rating of the current source and I is the current range.
For example, if a source is rated at 150 VA and the current range is set at
7.5 A, the compliance voltage for the source is 20 V.
N
OTE
For maximum compliance voltage, use the lowest current range that
can produce the desired test current. For example, if the test requires
5 A, set the range at 7.5 A, not 15 A.
Table C.1 through Table C.4 show range settings and compliance
voltages for all common source configurations. See Appendix G ”F6150
Specifications”, for more information on range settings.
