Comprehensive Test Items
The Model 8000 automatic power supply test system comes standard with an off-the-shelf test item library covering most industry standard
power supply tests. Unlike traditional ATE software, users do not need to have programming language background to create new test
items. Instead the Model 8000 allow users to use pre-compiled test items and to simplify defining test conditions and specifications.
The comprehensive test items cover 7 categories of power supply testing requirements. OUTPUT PERFORMANCE checks the general
performances of the UUT. INPUT CHARACTERISTIC verifies the input parameters of a power supply. REGULATION tests the stability of
the UUT under varying line-in and loading changes. TIMING AND TRANSIENT measures the transient state during turn-on, turn-off or
when events occurred. PROTECTION TESTS triggers the protection circuit of the power supply. Finally, the SPECIAL TEST and the
SPECIAL FEATURES provides means to test the most sophisticated power supplies when unique test routines are needed.
*These test items need to be created by users by using test item editor due to the variety of the UUTs.
And unlimited customized or user defined test items are allowed.

NI VISA Driver
National Instrument VISA driver are used by PowerPro III to allow support to almost any instrument which uses VXI/PXI/GPIB/RS-232/RS-
485 interface protocols. As a result, users do not have yo concerned about which interface is provided by individual instrument that may
want to intergrate into system. By using these standard instrument drivers PowerPro III can incoporated almost any modern test device.
Higher compatibility
Application Programming Interface
When users want to change the equipment from one brand to the others, for traditional ATS design, users are prohibited to do that. The
main problem is caused by the different format of the remote commands. Chroma PowerPro III provides a unique application programming
interface which interprets the different remote commands of various instrument to a standard format. Thus, if the functions of two equipment
are identical, even manufactured by two different suppliers, they still can be replaced directly by adding a new application programming
interface driver in Chroma ATS software, PowerPro III.
New Millennium ATS Software Platform
The Model 8000 Test Systems include the industries most sophisticated power supply testing software platform, PowerPro III. PowerPro III
provides users with an open software architecture suited for a wide range of applications and devices.
Power Pro III is a windows 98/2000/XP environment which provides necessary computer peripherals.
Switching Power Supply ATS
Off-the-shelf test commands
Test command library
For some special controls, it is not very easy for most of the users to figure
out how to make relevant instrument work properly. Chroma PowerPro III
collects most useful test commands for users in order to provide user-friendly
editing environment. On the other hand, Chroma PowerPro III also provides
some low level test commands, such as GPIB read/write, RS-232 read/write,
RS-485 read/write, Can bus read/write and I2C read/ write... etc. That allow
users to have the full access to all the equipment on Chroma Power Supply
Auto Test System model 8000 directly.
Meanwhile, The test command library stops the repetitive test conditions from
sending to hardware devices; Thus it can improve the test speed dramatically.
Flexible and easy to use
Test item editor
Following with the test command library, Chroma PowerPro III provides an
editing environment for user to create new test items to fit new test
requirements. In this test item editor, Chroma PowerPro III establishes a
powerful tool which is similar to the C language, but much easier to learn and
operate.
In the test item editor, it allows users to define test procedure, test condition
variables, test result variables and temporary variables. Furthermore, Chroma
PowerPro III test item editor also provides global variables for advanced
control test requirement. For instance, it may be used for auto alignment
system which need to pass the aligned value of the previous UUT as the next
UUT s default value. In this way, it is very helpful to improve the align
speed .
Sequential and Batch testing
The program editor
The test program editor provides a useful means to link several pre-defined test items for batch test. It also introduces pre-test and post-test
functions which allow users to send the test commands that are not necessary to use all the time to the equipment on system but only when
the execution just begin, or on the opposite, at the end of the test. This feature helps to optimize the test program and reduce test time.
Meanwhile, its run-time control allows users to determine the process and the direction of the test program according to the individual test
result of test items.
Test program editor can also open a M/S Excel file as the source of test program data. Users may first export test program as M/S Excel file.
Then base on the external database. Users may creat new test programs by modifying the Excel database. Thus, only one database needs
to maintain for multiple test programs.
Add test command to the test procedure from test
command library.
Enumerative items allow programmers define
limited selections for low level users.
Test rogram can be created by stacking test items
in test library.
Just fill the test conditions! The test procedure
was defined in the test item library.
Model  All specifications are subject to change without notice.
Debug run
The debug run provides a versatile and immediate tool for users to
verify the test items and test programs created before releasing
them to operators. All the essential debuging tools are provided
here, such as step run, set break point(s), run to break and
simultaneous variables display.Users may use this to control the
process of execution and at the mean time, monitor the test results
and verify them. As a result, there s no risk for users to put an
uncheck test item or test program onto production line.
GO/ NG run
The GO/ NG run provides friendly and easy execution environment
for production line and operators. All the test programs tested here
need to be released in management function. This may minimize
the risk of running a wrong or unchecked test program. The test
results will be stored in hard drive of the system controller which
may be used to create statistic and the test report. Plus the fail rate
check, bar code scanner support, Pass/ Fail indication TTL signal.
All these powerful features make it an ideal tool for mass
production testing.
On line control
The display tells it all. Users may achieve all the instrument on
system to control them and get readings from them. The type of
reading showing on display could be selected by user and user
may even define specifications for them. Furthermore, user can
also select them to show as a time graph in order to see the trends.
And, the waveform measured by DSO can be merged onto the
same display as well. The waveform can be downloaded as hard
copy or digitizing waveform. Under digitizing mode. Users can
select measurement parameters just like it provides in DSO. In a
word, this execution mode is the implementation of virtual
instrumentation.
The selected variables will be updated simultaneously
when the test item or test program is under going.
Failure rate check function is available in GO/NG
execution mode.
Users allow to create their own softpanel layout
and store it for recall later.
Versatile and powerful execution mode
Chroma PowerPro III software platform provides three execution modes. DEDUG RUN is used to verify the user-defined test items and test
programs. For production line testing, GO/ NG RUN allows one key operation to perform Pass/ Fail test. And the On-LINE-CONTROL mode
extends Chroma Power Supply Auto Test System model 8000 to control and monitor the hardware devices simultaneously. Thus, it is capable
of simulating the manual test scenarios just like you did on the bench.

2-7. Comprehensive analyzing tools
Report generator & wizard
Documentation and offering a readable report has been the
weakest part of the traditional auto test system. Users usually need
to spend a lot of effort to modify the data stored by the auto test
system to make it more recognizable to their customer.During the
process, it has great chance to get an incorrect result due to typing
error.
Now, Chroma PowerPro III, its outstanding report wizard and
generator provide the total solution for any documentation
requirement. From tabular test data , DSO waveform to correlation
chart, it allows users to integrate different types of presentation in
the same report. Users may also edit and store report format for
next use, thus it saves a lot of precious time in creating test report.
Meanwhile, to make the test report more portable, the output of the
report wizard is already a standard M/S Word file.

Statistical report
Chroma PowerPro III software provides off-the-shelf statistic report
function. All the test conditions defined in the test program and the
test readings can be stored and analyzed by statistic report
function. In statistic report function, it provides process capability,
Pareto, Xbar-R chart, Xbar-S chart, nP chart, P chart, U chart and
C chart. Users may select test program, test date period and even
include test data from remote computer via network connections.
Then choose any one of the control chart to generate statistical
report. The report may be printed out or stored in file. Or users may
store the raw data as a text file directly which is able to be imported
by Excel or similar word processor software package for further
analysis.
2-8. Complete system administration
Management function
Chroma PowerPro III provides a series of management functions for advance system control and management.
User function allows users to define authorized person list and their authorized level.
Activity log records the historical log-in, log-out time and activated functions of the system users.
Users are allowed to define the release flags of test programs and test items. These flags will be used to check
if the test program can be executed by GO/ NG run. Or if the test item can be shown in user test item library.
Instrument function is used to import and export H/ W instrument drivers.
Network function provides interface for PowerPro III to communicate with external software package or system.
For example, Shop-Floor or Product-Data-Management system. It is also used to define the source location of
the test programs when users want to centralize them.
