3.1.1 Test Equipment Needed to Validate Board

The following list details the equipment required for board validation:

  • 240 VAC to 24VAC or 120 VAC to 24 VAC, 20VA isolation transformer (20 VA is selected to supply less than 100 mA per SSR with a maximum of six SSRs on at a time). If the power relay coil current is more than 100 mA and if it is required to run the entire relays ON at a time, a transformer with increased VA rating must be used.
  • Separately isolated 40-V, 1.5-A DC supply and 5-V, 0.2-A DC supply
  • 24-V AC power relay (with coil current less than 1 A) – multiple quantity
  • MSP430FR2355 LaunchPad™ or similar controller or function generator to generate relay control signals
  • Oscilloscope (100 MHz) with two or more isolated voltage probes
  • 4½ digit multimeter
