New transducer electronic datasheet functionality released

Danisense launched a new Transducer Electronic Datasheet (TEDS) functionality for its range of current transducers to further streamline lab testing processes. The new TEDS offers a much-enhanced set-up for test engineers, making the process quick and easy. Also, it further improves measurement accuracy in laboratory environments.

With the introduction of its 'augmented' TEDS, the company goes beyond the requirements of the IEEE 1451 standard by delivering a wealth of additional data. While the IEEE standard only includes basic details such as transducer type, model, serial number, and turn ratio, its TEDS provides engineers with expanded parameters vital to improving overall performance and ensuring a seamless 'Plug and Play' experience.

The expanded parameters of the company's TEDS include offset data and AC and DC calibration data, enabling engineers to implement compensation loops that improve the transducer's overall accuracy and performance. Also, phase shift data is available, allowing the introduction of phase compensation strategies that extend accuracy over a broader frequency range.

The company also includes power supply information within TEDS, setting power limits to avoid set-up errors and ensuring precise calibration management by including calibration dates and alarms so users can easily track and schedule regular calibration periods.

The new TEDS functionality is offered across the range of the company's current transducers, covering current and voltage outputs. It is a testament to its ongoing commitment to meet the evolving demands of the test and measurement industry.
