Safety Summary
The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation, service, and repair of
this instrument. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual
violates safety standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of the instrument. Agilent Technologies
assumes no liability for the customer's failure to comply with these requirements.
GENERAL
Any LEDs used in this product are Class 1 LEDs as per IEC 825-l.
This ISM device complies with Canadian ICES-001. Cet appareil ISM est conforme à la norme NMB-001 du Canada.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
With the exceptions noted, all instruments are intended for indoor use in an installation category II
environment. They are designed to operate at a maximum relative humidity of 95% and at altitudes of up to 2000 meters.
Refer to the specifications tables for the ac mains voltage requirements and ambient operating temperature range.
Exceptions: Agilent Technologies Models 6680A, 6681A, 6682A, 6683A, 6684A, 6690A, 6691A and 6692A are intended
for use in an installation category III

Category II - Local level for connection to household outlets for 120 V, 230 V, etc.
2
Category III - Distribution level or cases where the reliability and availability of the equipment are subject to special requirements.

environment.
BEFORE APPLYING POWER
Verify that the product is set to match the available line voltage and the correct fuse is installed.
GROUND THE INSTRUMENT.
This product is a Safety Class 1 instrument (provided with a protective earth terminal). To minimize shock hazard, the
instrument chassis and cabinet must be connected to an electrical ground. The instrument must be connected to the ac mains
through a three-conductor power cable, with the third wire firmly connected to an electrical ground (safety ground) at the
power outlet. For instruments designed to be hard-wired to the ac power lines (supply mains), connect the protective earth
terminal to a protective conductor before any other connection is made. Any interruption of the protective (grounding)
conductor or disconnection of the protective earth terminal will cause a potential shock hazard that could result in personal
injury. If the instrument is to be energized via an external autotransformer for voltage reduction, be certain that the
autotransformer common terminal is connected to the neutral (earthed pole) of the ac power lines (supply mains).
FUSES
Only fuses with the required rated current, voltage, and specified type (normal blow, time delay, etc.) should be used. Do
not use repaired fuses or short circuited fuseholders. To do so could cause a shock or fire hazard.
DO NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE
Do not operate the instrument in the presence of flammable gases or fumes.
KEEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUITS
Operating personnel must not remove instrument covers. Component replacement and internal adjustments must be made by
qualified service personnel. Do not replace components with power cable connected. Under certain conditions, dangerous
voltages may exist even with the power cable removed. To avoid injuries, always disconnect power, discharge circuits and
remove external voltage sources before touching components.
DO NOT SERVICE OR ADJUST ALONE
Do not attempt internal service or adjustment unless another person, capable of rendering first aid and resuscitation, is
present.
DO NOT EXCEED INPUT RATINGS
This instrument may be equipped with a line filter to reduce electromagnetic interference and must be connected to a
properly grounded receptacle to minimize electric shock hazard. Operation at line voltages or frequencies in excess of those
stated on the data plate may cause leakage currents in excess of 5.0 mA peak.
DO NOT SUBSTITUTE PARTS OR MODIFY INSTRUMENT
Because of the danger of introducing additional hazards, do not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized
modification to the instrument. Return the instrument to an Agilent Technologies Sales and Service Offices for service and
repair to ensure that safety features are maintained.
Instruments which appear damaged or defective should be made inoperative and secured against unintended operation until
they can be repaired by qualified service personnel.

Safety Considerations
This power supply is a Safety Class 1 instrument, which means it has a protective earth terminal. That terminal must be
connected to earth ground through a power source equipped with a 3-wire ground receptacle. Refer to the Safety Summary
page at the beginning of this guide for general safety information. Before installation or operation, check the power supply
and review this guide for safety warnings and instructions. Safety warnings for specific procedures are located at
appropriate places in the guide. warning
Instrument Identification
The power supply is identified by a unique serial number that provides the following information:
US = The letter indicates the country of manufacture, where US = USA; MY = Malaysia.
33430177 = The first four digits indicate the year and week of manufacture or last significant design change. Add 1960 to
the first two digits to determine the year. For example, 32=1992, 33=1993, etc. The third and forth digits
specify the week of the year (43 = the 43rd week). The last four digits is the number assigned to each unit.

General Information 13
Operational features include:
■ Constant voltage (CV) or constant current (CC) output over the rated output range.
■ Built-in overvoltage (OV), overcurrent (OC), and overtemperature (OT) protection.
■ Automatic turn-on selftest.
■ Pushbutton nonvolatile storage and recall of up to 5 operating states (4 in Series 668xA/669xA supplies).
■ Local or remote sensing of output voltage.
■ Auto-parallel operation for increased total current.
■ Series operation for increased total voltage.
■ Analog input for remote programming of voltage and current.
■ Voltage output for external monitoring of output current.

■ Enabling or disabling the overcurrent protection (OCP) feature.
■ Saving and recalling operating states.
■ Setting the GPIB address.
■ Reading GPIB error message codes.
■ Calibrating the power supply, including changing the calibration protection password.
Remote Programming
The power supply may be remotely programmed via the GPIB bus and/or from an analog input port. GPIB programming is
with SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments) commands that make the power supply programs
compatible with those of other GPIB instruments. (A software-controlled Compatibility Mode also permits programming in
the command set of the Agilent 6030xA Autoranging Series.) In addition to control functions, SCPI programming permits
writing to the front panel LCD and complete calibration functions. Power supply status registers permit remote monitoring
of the following conditions:
■ Overvoltage, overcurrent, overtemperature, and unregulated states.
■ Operating mode (constant voltage or constant current).
■ State of the RI (remote inhibit) input signal.
■ Power-on status (PON).
■ Status of the output queue (QYE).
■ Pending triggers (WTG).
■ GPIB interface programming errors (CME, DDE, and EXE).
■ Calibration state (enabled or disabled).
The status registers can be programmed to generate an output fault signal (FLT) upon the occurrence of one or more
selected status events.
Analog Programming
The power supply has an analog port for remote programming. The output voltage and/or current of the power supply may
be controlled by individual dc programming voltages applied to this port. The port also provides a monitor output that
supplies a dc voltage proportional to the output current.
General Information 14
Output Characteristic
General
The power supply can operate in either CV (constant voltage) or CC (constant current) over its voltage and current ratings
(see Table 1-l). The operating locus is shown by the Output Characteristic Curve in Table 1-2. The operating point is
determined by the voltage setting (V
Point 1 is defined by the load line cutting the operating locus in the constant-voltage region. This region defines the CV
mode. Point 2 is defined by the load line cutting the operating locus in the constant-current region. This region defines the
CC mode.
), the current setting (Is), and the load impedance. Two operating points are shown.
s
Downprogramming
The power supply can sink current for more rapid down programming in the CV mode. For Series 664xA and 665xA
supplies, this capability is defined by the second quadrant area (-I
sink about 20% of their maximum rated positive output current. For Series 667xA, 668xA, and 669xA power supplies, this
is an uncharacterized current-sinking area that provides a limited downprogramming capability.
