Dynamic DC Load Testing for Power Supplies and Modular Test Systems
ITECH IT8700P+: High Dynamic Performance for Development and System Integration
The ITECH IT8700P+ Series is a modular electronic multi-channel DC load with high dynamic performance for development, production, and system integration. Synchronously controlled load channels enable defined testing of single or multiple DC outputs and are particularly suitable for repeatable dynamic load testing.
With current rise and fall rates of up to 12 A/µs, the IT8700P+ generates fast load transients. This allows the transient response of power supplies under changing load conditions to be evaluated. Fast control response supports controlled current loading with low overshoot.
The low on-resistance enables load testing at very low input voltages down to near 0 V. For larger test setups, master-slave operation allows the system to be expanded to up to 16 channels and 4.8 kW of load power without reducing dynamic performance.
Programmable test sequences, synchronous multi-channel control, and SCPI-based system integration support use in automated test systems. Detailed operating modes, measurement functions, interfaces, and protection functions are listed in the technical specifications.
Alternative Products
For modular multi-channel DC load testing with lower requirements for dynamic performance and measurement speed, the ITECH IT8700 multi-channel DC load is a suitable alternative. For programmable multi-channel DC load testing up to 500 V, the ITECH IT8700P programmable multi-channel DC load is available.

Supplier
LXinstruments has been supplying ITECH equipment since 2020. When an individual instrument needs to become part of a complete test system, we support you with product selection, system sizing and integration into the automation environment. The key is to ensure that the DUT, power requirements, interfaces and test sequence work together.
We also use ITECH equipment in customized test systems. Depending on the test application, we combine power supplies, electronic loads, grid simulation and measurement technology so that the functions match both the DUT and the test sequence.
