Digitally controlled supplies stand the test
Xantrex Technology will feature its XDC Series of 6 and 12kW digital controlled DC power supplies at Electronica 2002.
Budget pricing for lab supplies up to 420W
A new series of low-cost/low-power adjustable DC power supplies provides engineers with fast and flexible power sources suitable for a range of applications.
"Adding the control module for driving external hardware enhances the XMP's capability", said Larry Soldaty, Director of North American Sales for Xantrex's programmable power markets.
"The XMP 2600 offers the highest power modules for a multi-output power system available from any manufacturer today".
The multi-output, programmable XMP 2600 DC power system gives test engineers the flexibility to customise by selecting up to eight of 22 different power modules ranging from 160W to 2.4kW.
In addition to programmable, higher power modules the XMP 2600 features unique testing modes such as work point window, which has standard polarity/isolation relays and can be instantly reconfigured.
Other standard features include 99-step auto sequencing, built-in disconnect, automatic polarity reversal/isolation relays and extensive DUT protection features.
Intended for efficiently testing a variety of DUTs or for replacing multiple power supplies, the XMP 2600's mainframe controller software can provide eight channels with different voltage and current outputs.
"We offer a sensible approach in a world full of testing systems", said Soldaty.
"The flexibility of the XMP 2600 with its unique high power modules and easy to use software offers exceptional solutions for high-level test and OEM applications in defence, aerospace, automotive, semiconductor manufacturing, burn-in and ATE".
The XMP will be on display at Autotestcon (Booth 309-311) in San Antonio, Texas, from 21st to 23rd September 2004.
