Output noise
Any noise picked up on the sense leads also appears at the output of the power
supply and may adversely affect the voltage load regulation. Twist the sense leads
to minimize external noise pickup and run them parallel and close to the load
leads. In noisy environments, it may be necessary to shield the sense leads.
Ground the shield at the power supply end only. Do not use the shield as one of
the sense conductors.
Multiple loads
When connecting multiple loads to the power supply, each load should be
connected to the output terminals using separate connecting wires. This
minimizes mutual coupling effects between loads and takes full advantage of the
low output impedance of the power supply. Each pair of wires should be as short
as possible and twisted or bundled to reduce lead inductance and noise pick-up.
If a shield is used, connect one end to the power supply ground terminal and leave
the other end disconnected.
If cabling considerations require the use of distribution terminals that are located
remotely from the power supply, connect output terminals to the distribution
terminals by a pair of twisted or shielded wires. Connect each load to the
distribution terminals separately.
