Product Overview

Defining a New Benchmark in 1U High-Density DC Power Supplies

Packs 1.5 kW to 10 kW of programmable DC power into an ultra-compact 1U rack-mount footprint, engineered for high-volume automated test equipment (ATE), OEM systems, and demanding laboratory research.

Current-Fed Topology

Utilizes an inductor-based DC bus to limit fault energy naturally. Delivers continuous short-circuit immunity, zero fast current spikes, and superior stability under dynamic load transients.

SiC Power Semiconductors

Advanced Silicon Carbide switches integrated with proprietary micro-channel heat sinks enable full continuous output up to 50°C ambient operating temperatures without thermal derating.

127 Versatile Configurations

Models spanning 5 Vdc to 1500 Vdc output voltage and 1.5 Adc to 250 Adc current. Accommodates single-phase (85–265 Vac) and global three-phase (208 V to 480 V) AC mains.

Low Output Ripple & High Accuracy

Programming and readback accuracy up to ±0.075% of full scale with 12-bit DAC/ADC resolution, ensuring precise setpoint control for critical semiconductor burn-in and testing.

Flexible Controls & User I/O

Equipped with standard SCPI over RS-232, 37-pin isolated analog/digital user I/O (0-10V control), and optional LXI TCP/IP Ethernet or IEEE-488 GPIB interfaces.

USA Quality & Compliance

Designed and manufactured in Flemington, New Jersey, USA. Certified to UL/CSA 61010-1, CE Mark, NRTL safety standards, and RoHS compliant for worldwide deployment.
