Required Equipment
Power Supply: Maximum voltage rating of 85 V and maximum current rating of 4 A
3 Multimeters: Maximum current rating of 10 A and maximum voltage rating of 100 V
Electronic Load: with current display and maximum current capability of 35 A
Oscilloscope
Test Procedure
1. Configure Multimeter 1 (MM1) for measuring current. Connect Power Supply (+) terminal to MM1 current
measurement terminal.
2. Connect MM1 ground terminal to demo board (Vin+) terminal.
3. Connect Power Supply (-) terminal to demo board (Vin-) terminal.
4. Configure Multimeter 2 (MM2) for measuring voltage. Connect MM2 voltage measurement terminal to
demo board (Vout+) terminal. Connect MM2 ground terminal to demo board (Vout-) terminal.
5. Verify MM2 terminals are connected to demo board terminals.
6. Connect electronic load (EL) to demo board output. Connect EL (+) terminal to demo board (Vout+)
terminal. Connect EL (-) terminal to demo board (Vout-) terminal. Set load current (Iout) to 0 A.
7. Configure Multimeter 3 (MM3) for measuring voltage. Connect MM3 voltage measurement terminal to
demo board (Vout+) terminal. Connect MM3 ground terminal to demo board (Vout-) terminal.
8. Verify MM3 terminals are connected to the demo board terminals and not electronic load terminals.
Otherwise, the voltage drop on the EL terminals will affect your measurements.
9. The complete test setup should be similar to Figure 1.
10. Slowly ramp the input voltage (Vin) to 10 V. If input current exceeds 30 mA, verify the setup. If connection
is correct, stop testing. Board needs to be repaired.

Figure 2 Startup Circuit Waveform
11. Increase the input voltage to 25 V. The NCP1562 start-up circuit should be operating. Probe terminal 16 of
U1. The waveform should look similar to Figure 2. If not, stop testing. Board needs to be repaired.
12. Increase the input voltage to 36 V. The demo board output should be between 3.135 V and 3.465 V. If not,
stop testing. Board needs to be repaired.
13. Measure and collect input current (Iin) and voltage, as well as output current and voltage (Vout). Increase
load current in steps of 10 A.
14. Calculate efficiency (), load (REGload) and line regulation (REGline) using equations (1), (2) and (3).

Set load current to 0 A.
Repeat steps 13, 14 and 15 for input voltages of 48 V and 76 V.
Minimum Efficiency should not drop below 90 % under all load and line conditions.
Load Regulation should not exceed 1 % under all load and line conditions.
Line Regulation should not exceed 0.1 % under all load and line conditions.
