EEVblog #512 – Rigol DP832 Bad Design Investigation


Dave started out wanting to investigate the power-on spike on the Rigol DP832 Lab Power Supply, but ended up hunting down a reset bug that uncovered a bad thermal design mistake in the supply.

How will Rigol respond to this?
UPDATE: Rigol have already fixed this issue HERE
