Product operators in these circumstances must be trained to protect themselves from the risk of electric shock. If the circuit is capable of

This manual describes Keithley Instruments Model 2308 Portable Device Battery/Charger
Simulator, which is designed specifically for development and high-speed production testing of DC
battery-operated products.
Applications
Development and high speed testing of DC battery-operated products, such as:
•The Model 2308 is a specialized power supply that has a very fast recovery to large, near
insta
ntaneous load current transitions. Conventional power supplies do not have this
capability. The Model 2308 is designed specifically to respond to large load changes and
very short pulsed loads with small transient voltage drop and a very fast recovery time.
Typical devices that have these types of characteristic loads are mobile phones, wireless
communication modules, and other portable, battery operated devices. The Model 2308 can
maintain a near-constant output, even under quickly-changing load conditions.
•The power supply can measure a wide range of load currents. It can resolve down to 0.1
and measure up to 5 A. It has fast measurement capability as well and can measure load
current pulses as narrow as 50
•The Model 2308 can simulate the output of a battery. Its programmable output resistance
mulate a battery’s internal resistance so that the voltage output looks exactly like that
can si
of a battery’s output.
•The two channels can also sink current so that on
a discharged battery, while the other channel (the charger channel) can be used to simulate
a charger.

CAUTIONAllow for adequate ventilation around the front and rear-panel openings to
prevent the unit from overheating which may degrade performance.
Make sure that the maximum combined channel output is not exceeded. Also, do not exceed 3
A when using the power supply as a sink. For output voltages exceeding 5 V, the maximum
sink current is less than 3 A (derate the maximum sink current 0.2 A for each volt over 5 V).
NOTEWhen using the power supply as a sink (negative polarity), the power supply is
dissipating rather than sourcing power (see Sink operation).

Power-up
Line power connection
The power supply operates from a line voltage in the range of 100-120VAC/200-240VAC at a
frequency of 50 or 60 Hz, 165 V AC. Line voltage and frequency are automatically sensed,
therefore there are no switches to set. Check to see that the line power in your area is compatible.
Use the
:SYSTem::LFRequency? query (see Section 10) to read the line frequency.
Perform the following steps to connect the power supply to
WARNINGThe power cord supplied with the Model 2308 contains a separate ground
for use with grounded outlets. When proper connections are made,
instrument chassis is connected to power line ground through the ground
wire in the power cord. Failure to use a grounded outlet may result in
personal injury or death due to electric shock.

On power-up, the power supply performs self-tests on its RAM and EPROM. After a blinking cursor
appears on line one, RAM tests are completed. After a blinking cursor appears on line two,
EPROM self tests are completed.
