Programmable Power Supplies with up to 1080W Output

16 October 2015 – Tektronix introduced eight new programmable DC power supplies. These additions to the Keithley Series 2260B power supply family include six new 250V and 800V high voltage models, a new 108A high current model and a new 80V/40A 1080W high power model. The new additions expand the test applications for the Series 2260B family, allowing the supplies to source higher power, high voltage, and higher current components, sub-assemblies, and products.

Regardless of the configuration selected, Series 2260B power supplies feature programmable rise and fall time control for both the voltage and the current waveforms. This allow engineers to create customized output voltage source waveforms and to avoid overshoot and potential damage to a device-under-test due to high inrush current. An embedded programmable output resistance feature allows users to simulate the output of a battery for testing higher power portable battery products.

Adding to their versatility, the compact size of the series 2260B supplies allows six 360W supplies, or three 720W supplies, or two 1080W supplies to be rack-mounted in a single row.

Pricing and Availability

All eight new Keithley Series 2260B DC power supplies are available now with prices starting at EUR 2,210.
