The 1698B Series of compact 200 W DC power supplies are equipped with programming and protection features commonly found in more expensive performance instruments. Programming features include list mode for repetitive operation and 10 user-configurable voltage/current presets for quick recall. These benchtop power supplies also support adjustable voltage and current limits to protect the device under test.
The front panel incorporates a numeric keypad, rotary control knob, and a dedicated V-set/I-set button for convenient control. The back-lit LCD simultaneously displays voltage, current, and power meter measurements with 4-digit resolution.
The 1698B features USB and RS485 interfaces for remote communication. Operating software is included for list mode set up and logging measurement data. Any of the three models in this series can be combined for multi-unit control of up to 31 power supplies.
Suitable for many applications including repetitive test routines in R&D, production testing, product evaluation, or in education environments.
