INTRODUCTION
The XBT32-3FTP is a programmable benchtop power supply that provides
variable DC low voltage power to devices and assemblies in a laboratory setting.
This section provides an overview of the XBT32-3FTP DC Power Supply and
lists its features, functions and specifications.
1.1 Overview
The XBT32-3FTP is a programmable DC power supply with three (3) outputs:
Channel 1 and Channel 2 are linear power supplies and Channel 3 is a switching
mode power supply. XBT32-3FTP comes with 16 bits resolution. The maximum
total output power is 222 watts with both Channel 1 and Channel 2 providing 96
watts each (0 ~ 32V/3A) and Channel 3 providing a maximum of 30 watts (0 ~
15V/5A). This means that when the Channel 3 output voltage is set to 6 volts or
less, the output current can be up to 5A. If the Channel 3 output voltage is set
above 6 volts then the maximum output current depends on the voltage setting
with the output power of 30 watts. This is a unique feature that differs from
traditional power supplies.
1.2 Features and Functions
In addition to the triple independent output, other important features and
functions include:
•
parallel mode for an output current up to 6A
•
series mode for an output voltage up to 64V
•
precision voltage and current measurement
•
dual tracking
•
digital rotary and push button controls
•
LCD display
