High-speed transient-load steppers allow engineers to test and validate how well the PDN and VRM can respond to sudden changes in power demand.
In electronic systems, particularly in integrated circuits (ICs) and microprocessors, power delivery networks (PDNs) and voltage regulator modules (VRMs) play crucial roles in supplying stable and reliable power to the electronic components. To allow engineers to test and validate how well the PDN and VRM can respond to sudden changes in power demand, high-speed transient-load steppers are used.
This article will focus on the high-speed transient-load stepper solution recently announced by Picotest, a company specializing in high-performance test and measurement solutions, specifically the interface between the tested board and the measurement instrument.
