Original Press Release:

Quantum Composers Adds New Features to The 9730 Series Programmable Current Function Generator, Making it Compliant with USCAR-28 and AK-LV-16

Meets Advanced Safety Requirements for Automotive and Pyrotechnical Applications

(Bozeman, MT) May 20, 2020 — Quantum Composers, Inc. added new features to the 9730 Series Programmable Current Function Generator, which provide engineers with the ability to generate complex current waveforms and generate 6 amps of high precision current pulses.

Designed specifically to meet the advanced safety test requirements of USCAR-28 and AK-LV-16 for testing pyrotechnical systems, airbag systems, and electric igniters, the 9730 now offers:

  • Multi-channel capability (2 or 4 channels)
  • Precision timing control of delays and pulsewidths
  • USCAR Option: 8 segment pulse definitions allow complex waveforms with different current amplitude steps and ramps
  • 6 amps of high-precision current pulses
  • Integrated precision 4-wire load resistance measurement
  • Isolated current and voltage monitor reference outputs
  • Advanced safety features including remote interlock, removable keyed enable switch and internal error checking

Per the AK-LV-16, Section 5.19 requires a constant current followed by a rapid, controlled ramp as shown in the following graph: 

The advanced features, paired with the existing reliable and robust nature of the 9730 Digital Delay Current Generator product line, make the newest addition a perfect fit for production testing to the requirements of USCAR-28 and AK-LV-16, development testing of airbag systems, and other pyrotechnic systems.
