Prior to connecting the DC input source, set the current limit of the input supply to 0.1 A maximum. Ensure the input source is initially set to 0 V and connected to the VIN+ and VIN– connection points as shown in Figure 5-1. An additional input bulk capacitor is recommended to provide damping if long input lines are used.
Connect voltmeter 1 at VIN+ and VIN– connection points to measure the input voltage.
Connect ammeter 1 to measure the input current and set to at least 1-second aperture time.
