Maintenance and quality assurance are more important than ever in the aerospace industry. Keeping passengers and crews safe requires regular, meticulous ground testing – especially power quality ...

Out with the old, and in with the new – KitGuru is changing how we test GPU power draw. As a metric that has proven difficult to accurately measure for years, here we detail how we are now able to ...

Every engineer knows that a stable, well-regulated power supply is needed to perform reliable and consistent circuit and subsystem tests. But what about testing a new power-supply, regulator, or ...

If a building has an electrical generator for power outages, one of the most valuable commissioning tests will be the loss of power response (LOPR) test, also known as a pull-the-plug test. This is ...

Ultrasonic nondestructive testing, also known as ultrasonic NDT or simply UT, is a method of characterizing the thickness or internal structure of a test piece using high-frequency sound waves. The ...

A tough challenge for test engineers is explored in terms of test methods, pitfalls, and measurement errors. For the test engineer, RF and microwave power amplifier testing imposes unique challenges.

In the 1990s, experts calculated that without efforts to increase efficiencies and reduce “no-load” power consumption, external power supplies—the ones used to power everything from cell-phones to ...

The industry’s insatiable need for power in high-performance computing (HPC) is creating problems for test cells, which need to deliver very high currents at very consistent voltage levels through the ...
