Set the power supply current limit to 10 A. Turn off the power supply. Connect
the positive output of the power supply to J1 and the negative output to
J3.
Connect the load to J2 for the positive connection and J4 for the negative
connection.
Set the power supply voltage to 16 V and the electronic load to 0.1 A. The
electronic load voltage must be in regulation with a nominal 16-V output.
Slowly increase the load while
monitoring the output voltage between J6-VCC and J6-GND. The output voltage must
remain in regulation with a nominal 16-V output as the load is increased up to
9.4 A.
Slowly sweep the input voltage from 16 V to 36 V. The output voltage must remain
in regulation with a nominal 16-V output.
Decrease the load to 2.5 A.
Slowly sweep the input voltage from 36 V to 5 V. The output voltage must remain
in regulation with a nominal 16-V output.
Decrease the input voltage down to 0 V to shut down the buck-boost converter,
and then turn off the load.
