New 600 W models have been added to the TDK-Lambda Z+ series of programmable DC power supplies. Complementing the Z+200, Z+400 and Z+800 ranges, the 600 W units offer the same features and carry a 5-year warranty.
Addressing the need for high-quality benchtop power supplies for the R&D environment, the Z+600 range shares the same dimensions as the other Z+ ranges and thus offers high power density. The range is also ideally suited for ATE and OEM 2U rack mounted or integrated applications such as test and measurement, semiconductor burn-in, component test, laser diode, heater supplies, RF amplifiers and electromagnets.
Models in the new series are available with output voltages up to 100 V d.c. and output currents up to 60 A. They can operate in either constant current or constant voltage modes and accept a universal (85 – 265 V a.c.) input. Higher-power systems can be achieved by connecting up to 6 identical units in parallel with active current sharing. To increase the output voltage or to provide a bipolar output, up to 2 units may be connected in series.
All models can be programmed via the front panel or remotely using USB, RS-232/485 and analog interfaces, which are built in as standard. Optional LAN, GPIB (IEEE488) and isolated analog programming interfaces are available.
