Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-004138

An acronym for Periodic and Random Deviation, a specification for DC power supplies that measures the unwanted AC and noise components present at the output. It combines ripple, which is periodic and related to the line frequency, with random noise from electronic components. PARD is measured in volts peak-to-peak or volts RMS over a specified bandwidth, such as 20 Hz to 20 MHz.
