Agilent Technologies has introduced new modules and paralleling capabilities to its modular power system that extend its range up to 100 V or 80 A. The Agilent N6700 low-profile modular power system (MPS) is a 1U (1-EIA rack unit) high, multiple-output programmable DC power supply system that gives test system integrators the flexibility to optimise performance, power and price to match test needs.
Three basic programmable power supply modules have been added to Agilent's N6700 MPS to extend its range of coverage up to 100 V and 20 A. For example, the 5 V, 20 A module provides high current at low voltage for applications including digital logic device testing and burn-in. The 100 V, 1 A module provides high voltage at low current for applications including field effect transistor voltage breakdown testing.
New virtual channel capabilities simplify the process of paralleling and improves performance when operating in parallel. A virtual channel enables engineers to set up the MPS to treat up to four channels as a single, synchronised channel up to 80 A to address applications that requires currents greater than any single output can provide. Its paralleling capability is said to be the industry's first to support all power supply functions - including sourcing, measurements, triggering, protection and status monitoring - without writing a single line of code to manage the interaction and synchronisation of the paralleled power supplies.
The N6700 has also been enhanced to provide programmable voltage slew rate, which is required for such applications as inrush limiting or powering rate-sensitive devices. This capability enables engineers to generate a 0 V to full-scale voltage change that is controllable from 100 μs to 10 s with a single programming command. The modular power system offers built-in digital multimeters, the choice of 50 and 100 W output power levels, various voltage and current combinations, and three performance levels in a 1U-high package.
