Tektronix 30-page guide to do measurements on SMPS/Inverters
« on: August 14, 2017, 10:42:42 AM »
A short guide to basic components of a inverter and how to measure voltages, currents, losses etc in those different parts.

Apart from obvious advertising for their own products, it does cover some real good points that are often neglected by amateurs, f.ex. I have seldom taken the time to account for skew between voltage and current signals, and thus my measurements have a much higher error margin than necessary.

You can download your own copy here: http://info.tek.com/en-power-supply-primer.html
