The 2303, 2306, and 2308 have a programmable output resistance, which allows them to
simulate the output of a real battery, a capability that conventional power supplies do not
have. The voltage output response of a lithium ion battery to a load current burst is shown

in the gure on the left. The gure on the right shows the voltage output of the 2308

with its output resistance programmed to be equivalent to the internal resistance of the
