Overview of DUT Power Supply Management System
The DUT Power Supply Management System is controlled by a simple comparator circuit. The comparator circuit is created in a LABVIEW and the voltage of the RTD sensor on the DUT is compared to a reference voltage value. The reference voltage value is an equivalent voltage value of the voltage of the RTD sensor on the DUT at 120°C. The comparator circuit determines whether power can or cannot be supplied to the DUT and Solid State Relay (SSR) is a switch that allows the power to be supplied or not. 200mΩ resistor is used to monitor the power being supplied to the DUT.

Solid State Relay
Resistance Value: 0.2 Ω
A resistor is used to determine the amount of current being supplied to the DUT. A very small resistance resistor is needed for an accurate calculation.

A switch, which controls the power supplied to the DUT, turns on-off accordingly to the signals from the LABVIEW through DAQ.
