Programmable AC Power Source

Industry-Leading AC Power Source Test Solutions for Over 50 Years

AC Power Sources generate AC electrical power with precise control over parameters such as voltage, frequency, waveform shape, and phase. An AC power source instrument is specifically designed to test, measure, or simulate alternating current (AC) electrical power and is used to provide power to devices under test (DUTs).

Selecting the right AC power source is key in ensuring the reliability, safety, and compliance of electrical and electronic devices and systems in industries like aerospace, automotive, renewable energy, power conversion, and consumer electronics.

Pacific Power Source provides a wide range of AC power sources for specific and general-purpose applications. Our solid-state AC Power Source and frequency converters cover various power levels for single, split, and three-phase requirements with advanced features.

  • Regenerative, Bidirectional Power
  • PWM, Solid-State AC Power Sources
  • Linear Power Sources

Types of AC Power Sources

If you need help selecting the right AC Power Source for your test requirements, contact our experts in test for consultation and save time.
  • Our Regenerative, Bidirectional Power line of AC/DC Power Sources provide over 90% energy efficiency, ideal for high power or bidirectional applications to simulate real-world conditions.
  • Most of our AC Power Sources use a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) technique, offering high power density and high efficiency. They use a combination of both linear and non-linear methods to achieve high efficiency conversion in lighter and smaller packages and perform well into low power factor loads.
  • If you need a Linear AC Power Source, our industry-leading LMX Series produces low-distortion, high fidelity output waveforms. The advantage of linear amplification is its ability to faithfully reproduce oscillator waveforms with very high small signal bandwidth and low output distortion.

Selecting a Linear or PWM AC Power Source App Note

Selecting a Linear or PWM AC Power Source App Note

In our white paper, learn about key considerations for choosing between a linear or PWM AC Power Source. In most cases, a PWM AC power source offers the most efficient and dynamic solution, but there are some test requirements in which a linear may be most effective.
