Flexibility & Performance

Multi-Range Operation
Traditional power supplies with rectangular output characteristics are only able to deliver maximum output power at one voltage/current point. The multi-ranging
9200B Series provides greater flexibility over traditional power supplies by extending operating areas. For example, the 9206B can operate at 150 V/4 A, 60 V/10 A,
or any other point on the maximum power curve. These wide ranges of voltage and current allow users to replace multiple traditional power supplies on a bench or
system rack.

Application software Test sequence execution in list mode

The list mode feature lets users store, recall, and
run program sequences in the power supply’s
internal memory. A total of 10 list files can be
saved, each allowing a maximum of 150
configured steps. The test sequence can be
programmed from the front panel or remotely via
the USB or RS232 interfaces. A list file
can be set to execute once or repeated multiple
cycles. Each step’s settings include voltage,
current, and duration.

Built-in DVM and output timer

Additional features include a built-in DVM
capable of measuring up to 60 V DC and an
PC software is provided for front panel emulation, generating and executing test sequences or logging output timer function. The timer can be adjusted
measurement data without the need to write source code. from 0.1 – 99999.9 s and used to set up how
long the output is enabled when turned on.
n Log voltage, current, and power values as well as timestamp, CV/CC mode, and output status
n Save and load list files to and from the power supply’s internal memory or a PC
