Agilent E3632A

Agilent E3632A DC Power Supply

The Agilent E3632A is a high-performance, dual-range DC power supply designed for bench-top and system applications. It offers versatile solutions for design and test requirements with its combination of programming capabilities and linear power supply performance.

Key Features

• Dual Range: The power supply has two output ranges: 0 to +15 Vdc @ 0-7 A or 0 to 30 Vdc @ 0-4 A.
• Programmability: It is programmable locally from the front panel or remotely over GPIB and RS-232 interfaces.
• Accuracy and Resolution: High accuracy and high resolution with voltage accuracy of 0.05% + 10 mV and load regulation of <0.01% + 2 mV; <0.01% + 250 µA.
• Protection: Overvoltage protection (OVP) and overcurrent protection (OCP) with trip levels that can be set and cleared.
• Display and Controls: Highly visible vacuum-fluorescent display meters and easy-to-use knob control settings.
• Remote Sensing: Remote voltage sensing for load voltage.
• Storage: Three storage locations for user-defined operating states.
• Self-Test: Automatic power-on self-test.
• Calibration: Software calibration with no internal adjustments required.

Front Panel Operations

• Range Selection: Select the desired output range using the range selection keys.
• OVP/OCP: Enable or disable OVP and OCP features and set trip levels.
• Limit Settings: Set and display voltage and current limit values.
• Operating States: Save and recall operating states.
• Local Mode: Return the power supply to local mode from remote interface mode.

Remote Interface Capabilities

• Programming: Voltage and current programming.
• Readback: Voltage and current readback.
• Status: Present and stored status readback.
• Error Detection: Programming syntax error detection.
• Self-Test: Complete self-test.
