B&K Precision’s models 1696, 1697, and 1698
DC switching mode programmable power
supplies offer 200 watts of power. This series of
laboratory grade, switching mode, programmable
power supplies are ideal for repetitive test
routines in R&D, production, product evaluation
and various applications.
Information appearing on the large back-lit LCD
makes the panel controls simple and easy to use
in spite of it’s sophisticated features. Because of
the MCU (micro-controller unit) and the related
software, user re-calibration without opening the
case is an added bonus. When used with a
standard PC, the supplied user friendly software
and built in RS-232 interface provides two way
communication improving the functionality of
these unit. Data logging with color graphic
display in adjusting range voltage, current, watts,
and time periods are all valuable tools in data
analysis.
