Figure 5-8: Current limit
CC mode
The current I
max
corresponds to the current setting adjustable in the instrument.
If I
out
reaches I
max
, the instrument switches to CC mode, i.e. the output current remains
constant and limited to I
max
even if the load increases. Instead, the output voltage V
out
decreases to almost zero with a short circuit. In CC mode, the font text in the channel
display area changes to red.
