Product Description:
Kiethley's 2260B-80-40 power supply has programmable rise time (or slew rate) control to prevent potentially dangerous inrush currents from flowing into loads that have low resistance when power is initially supplied. Either voltage or current rise time can be controlled. With voltage slew rate control, voltage rise time can range from a slow, 0.1V/s to a high speed of 160V/s. Programming a current rise time puts 2260B 80 40 in a constant current control priority mode, in which the current slew rate limits the rate at which the voltage rises across the device under test (DUT.) In addition to controlling rise time, fall time can also be programmed; fall time values can be different from rise time values. Delivery of power to a load can be precisely controlled to prevent overshoot spikes and excessive amounts of inrush current, eliminating damage to components, modules, or devices and generating more precise characteristic I-V curves for components such as LEDs. Emulate the Response of a Battery Test a circuit or device under the most realistic conditions by applying a test source with the output resistance that is equivalent to the output resistance of the actual source that will be used to power the circuit or device. For example, a battery has a varying internal resistance, and a device powered by a battery will have a voltage applied to the device that is reduced by the voltage drop across the battery’s internal resistance.
