What is a Current generator?

A current generator is a device that generates a constant current for electrical measurement of electronic equipment. Many products are sold as voltage and current generators. Since it is necessary to keep a constant current flowing, the magnitude of the current is controlled by the on-board operational amplifier and reference voltage IC so that a constant current can flow even if the load resistance changes.

Application of Current generator

Current generators are mainly used for evaluating and measuring the electrical characteristics of semiconductor devices, electronic equipment, and electronic components. In addition, current generators that can generate large currents are used for purposes such as checking the breaking operation of breakers and other devices, inspecting blown fuses, and evaluating substation equipment.
