How to calibrate Siglent SPD1000X / SPD3303X / SPD3303X-E series power supplies?
Peter_O:
Did the FW upgrade to SPD3303X_V1.01.01.02.07R2_EN with an "upgraded" 3303X-E yesterday. At first glance the calibration stays well within specs.

some of you with a SPD3303 might find this video interesting ?

Noise ? or low frequency instability ?
or just the regulation loop ?
why is it not on a super cheap supply ?

Any AC ripple from the cheap SMPS is likely influenced by the 2V AC voltage accuracy spec of the SDM3055:
20 KHz – 50 KHz = +1.0% of reading + 0.05% of range
P5 in the datasheet:

Whereas the SPD3303X is a linear PSU therefore any ripple is 2x mains frequency and measured result will be more accurate. Comparisons such as this need be done with a scope so to properly see the full noise/ripple picture. ;)
oz2cpu:
YES that is exactly what i would expect too,
how ever the result is just the opposite, the SPD3303X is the one with more "jitter" but less noise
oz2cpu:
the SDM3055 voltmeter can reveal the odd stepped voltage signal from the SPD3303
so something is affecting the voltage in a special stepped way, however the levels of this is insanely low !!
it is 50uV so there is now way to see this with a normal scope.
just to verify my test setup, i connected the cheap MINLEAF NPS605W
and saw the stepped surve is compleetly gone,
by the way . WOW I am happy about the SDM3055 voltmeter
