Used GIGATRONICS 8541 #197190 for sale

GIGATRONICS 8541 is a single-channel, programmable power supply designed for testing and calibrating a variety of electronic systems. This digitally controlled DC power supply operates from 0 to 60 VDC output voltage, up to 3 amps maximum current, and is capable of supplying up to 240 watts of total output power. It features a comprehensive range of arbitrary function modes including ramp, triangle, sinusoidal, and pulse waveforms. This diversity makes it an ideal tool for a wide variety of test and calibration applications. 8541 features a basic set of computer-controlled parameters such as voltage, current, and power, as well as a slew rate control for ramp and triangle waveforms. Users can either set up the parameters manually, or alternatively input a program with up to eight program setting steps using the supplied Windows compatible setup software. The supply is equipped with a USB connection for easy connection to a control source. The graphical interface of GIGATRONICS supply allow the user to visualize the programmable parameters easily without having to rely on complex lab instruments. GIGATRONICS 8541 is a highly flexible and reliable power source, suitable for many precision laboratory applications. It has an active output voltage regulation system that ensures stable output voltage at all times. Furthermore, it is fitted with several protection features that prevent undesired operations and even complete shut down in the event of overload or over-voltage. 8541 supplies a high resolution output with less than 2mV/V of noise as well as a highly accurate linearity tolerance of ±1mV up to 30V. It also displays a negligible line voltage regulation of about 1mV, as well as low ripple of 0.01/Vpk. This makes it ideal for both testing and calibration of sensitive electronic components. The unit also features a convenient time-saving mode called 'accumulate mode' that allows multiple calibration and test of components at once. This is especially useful for devices that require multiple tests or short test sequences. Additionally, GIGATRONICS 8541 is fitted with an optional RS232 interface for remote control, monitoring, and pointing. Finally, 8541 boasts a comprehensive safety protection system, which includes an audible and visual alarm for over-load and over-voltage. It also features thermal overload and reversed polarity protection, both of which can be adjusted for specific needs. In summary, GIGATRONICS 8541 is a highly versatile and reliable power supply with a host of useful features.
