AC power sources

27 August 2014 Power Electronics / Power Management

Keysight Technologies introduced a family of basic AC power sources that deliver stable, reliable power for testing electronic devices during design and manufacturing.

The new AC6800 Series includes four models from 500 to 4000 VA output power, all with the quality and capability required for basic testing.

For simple test applications, electronic device designers and manufacturers may need a basic AC power source to simulate outlet power or global AC power conditions. They may also need to make sure their AC-powered products operate properly when they encounter voltage fluctuations, extreme inrush current and transient spikes from overburdened power grids. The AC6800 basic power sources are ideal for powering devices under test in these situations.

The devices offer intuitive user interfaces that make it easy for engineers to access and view setup and measurement information directly from the front panel or programmatically via SCPI commands. They come standard with LAN/LXI Core and USB interfaces, with an optional GPIB interface also available. The LXI Core interface enables engineers to set up and control the power supplies remotely via a standard Web interface. Users can add an optional analog input board to facilitate the addition of basic transient waveforms to their sources.
