Details

The BK Precision HPS20K1500 Single Output High-Power Programmable DC Power Supply provides 20 kW of clean output power and high efficiency in a compact 3U form factor. This power supply is well equipped for ATE system applications requiring a wide output voltage. Multiple power supplies can be combined in parallel to increase the total output power to 160 kW. Additional power supply units are sold separately.

The 5 inch touchscreen offers intuitive control while displaying both set and measured values, including simulated internal resistance. The script function enables the power supply to output a sequence of user-defined voltage or current steps based on a set of written commands.

Additionally, built-in protection features including under voltage protection help prevent damage to the power supply and the device under test. Adjustable voltage or current slew rates and configurable output ON/OFF timer functions enhance user control. LabVIEW drivers are provided to simplify instrument control from a PC. Output voltage and current can be logged directly to a USB flash drive.

Operation Highlights

Generate Custom Output Sequences (Script Function)

The script function provides a simple way to output a sequence of user-defined voltage or current steps. Similar to list mode, this function offers greater flexibility by supporting more complex output curves. The script function is useful for generating custom output sequences in production test and other automated test applications.

Additional Script Function Capabilities

Additional capabilities of the script function includes the ability to generate linear waveforms or curves.

Master/Slave Operation

Up to 8 HPS Series Power Supply units can be connected in parallel in order to deliver 160 kW of total output power.

Intuitive Front Panel Operation

The 5 inch touchscreen display is both intuitive and easy to navigate. Measured voltage, current, power, and internal resistance values are displayed along with set parameters and operating mode.
