Remote Sense
What is Remote Sense and what is it used for?
Remote Sense (often referred to as remote sensing) is a function in power supplies and electronic loads that compensates for voltage drops in the connection leads.
When high currents flow, voltage losses inevitably occur in the leads between
the device under test (DUT) and the load or power source. As a result, the
voltage actually reaching the DUT would be lower than the value set on the
power supply, which can lead to inaccurate testing or loading conditions.
With Remote Sense, additional sense lines are connected directly to the DUT
terminals. The instrument measures the actual voltage at the test points and
automatically regulates the output to ensure accuracy.
Advantages of Remote Sense:
- Compensation of lead resistance and voltage drops
- More precise voltage regulation directly at the DUT terminals
- Higher measurement accuracy in tests with high current levels
- Standard feature in electronic loads, laboratory power supplies, and test systems
