Agilent 6612C Data Sheet

Agilent Performance DC Power
Supplies provide the features
and performance necessary
to satisfy the most demanding
requirements. For system
designers who are striving to
shorten test time and maximize
production throughput, the
Agilent High Performance DC
power supplies will help them
achieve their goals.

Multiple output power supplies
reduce rack space. The advanced
programmable capabilities
allow for efficient system design
and maintenance. Also their
programming and measurement
accuracy, and their DUT
protection features, make
them an excellent value
for the R&D lab.

speed and accuracy
for test optimization

This series of linear-regulated
40-50 W DC power supplies is
designed to maximize the
throughput of DUTs through the
manufacturing test process with
fast programming and measurement,
and also active downprogramming.
It offers many advanced program­mable features including stored
states and status reporting. Pro­gramming is done using industry
standard SCPI commands via the
GPIB or RS-232. Test system
integration is further simplified by
using the VXIPlug&Play drivers.
The optional relays simplify system
design and troubleshooting.

The half-rack size of the 6610A
series makes it a convenient
DC power supply for the R&D lab
bench. The built-in microamp
measurement system helps the
engineer to easily and accurately
monitor the output voltage and
current without a complicated
test setup.

DC Floating Voltage: Output terminals

can be floated up to ±240 Vdc
maximum from chassis ground

Remote Sensing: Up to two volts dropped

The preceding page(s) are an excerpt from the 2006 System
and Bench Instruments Catalog. We hope that these pages supply
the information that you currently need. If you would like to
have further information about the extensive selection of Agilent
DC power supplies, please visit

www.agilent.com/find/power to print

a copy of the complete catalog, or to request that a copy be sent
to you. You will also find a lot of other useful information on
this Web site.

In the full System and Bench Instruments Catalog, you will
find that Agilent offers much more than DC power supplies. This
catalog contains detailed technical and application information
on digital multimeters, DC power supplies, arbitrary waveform
generators, and many more instruments. If you need basic, clean,
power for your lab bench, it’s there. In each power product
category we have also integrated the capabilities you need for
a complete power solution, including extensive measurement
and analysis capabilities.

Please give us a call at your local Agilent Technologies sales
office, or call a regional office listed, for assistance in choosing
or using Agilent power products.
