Test Automation

automated road tests include (level 1): • Efficiency • Line regulation • Load regulation • Quiescent current (switching) • Shutdown current Areas that can be expand to with moderate efforts (level 2): • Max output current • Logic pin threshold • Register scan • I2C clock frequency compatibility • Thermal shutdown The following automation tasks have been explored and feasible with more efforts (level 3): • Load transient • Input/output ripple • Startup/shutdown waveforms • Switching frequency • Noise and jitter
