The ASR-2000 series, an AC+DC power source aiming for system integration or desktop applications, provides both rated power output for AC output and rated power output for DC output. Ten ASR-2000 output modes are available, including 1) AC power output mode (AC-INT Mode), 2) DC power output mode (DC-INT Mode), 3) AC/DC power output mode (AC+DC-INT Mode), 4) External AC signal source mode (AC-EXT Mode), 5) External AC/DC signal source mode (AC+DC-EXT Mode), 6) External AC signal superimposition mode (AC-ADD Mode), 7) External AC/DC signal superimposition mode (AC+DC-ADD Mode), 8) External AC signal synchronization mode (AC-SYNC Mode), 9) External AC/DC signal synchronization mode (AC+DC-SYNC Mode), 10) External DC voltage control of AC output mode (AC-VCA Mode).

The ASR-2000 series provides users with waveform output capabilities to meet the test requirements of different electronic component development, automotive electrical devices and home appliances, including 1) Sequence mode generates waveform fallings, surges, sags, changes and other abnormal power line conditions; 2) Arbitrary waveform function allows users to store/upload user-defined waveforms; and 3) Simulate mode simulates power outage, voltage rise, voltage fall, and frequency variations. When the ASR-2000 series power source outputs, it can also measure Vrms, Vavg, Vpeak, Irms, Iavg, Ipeak, IpkH, P, S, Q, PF, CF, 100th-order Voltage Harmonic and Current Harmonic. In addition, the Remote sense function ensures accurate voltage output. The Customized Phase Angle for Output On/Off function can set the starting angle and ending angle of the voltage output according to the test requirements. V-Limit, Ipeak-Limit, F-Limit, OVP, OCP, and OPP function settings can protect the DUT during the measurement process. In addition to OTP, OCP, and OPP protection, the ASR-2000 series also incorporates the Fan fail alarm function and AC fails alarm function.

Operating Area for ASR-2000 Series

The ASR-2000 series is an AC+DC power source that provides rated power output not only at the AC output, but also at the DC output. The operation areas are shown in diagrams.

Measurement Items for ASR-2000 Series

The ASR-2000 series provides users with measurement capabilities including Vrms, Vavg, Vpeak, Irms, Iavg, Ipeak, IpkH, P, S, Q, PF, CF, 0th-order Voltage Harmonic and Current 10 Harmonic. During the power output, the measurement parameters including Vrms/Irms, Vavg/Iavg and Vmax/Vmin/ Imax/Imin can be switched by users at any time to display the instantaneous calculation reading. 

Simulate Mode

Simulate Mode can quickly simulate different transient waveforms, such as power outage, voltage rise, voltage fall, etc., for engineers to evaluate the impact of transient phenomena on the DUT. Ex: Capacitance durability test.

Remote Sense Function

For high-current output applications, the voltage drop caused by large current passing through the load cables will affect the measurement results. The ASR-2000 series provides the remote sense function that can sense the voltage drop of the DUT to the ASR-2000 series and the DUT will be compensated by the ASR-2000 series. The maximum voltage that the remote sense function can compensate is 5% of the output voltage.
