FEATURES
• Direct entry of voltage and current from
the keypad with up-down slew buttons.
• A two-line, sixteen character back-lit
display prompts you for settings and
reports back what the ABC is delivering to
the load.
• All full scale and zero adjustments are
made with the keypad and are stored in
non-volatile memory. Calibration is
password protected.
• Kepco’s ABC is controlled over the GPIB
and supports SCPI and IEEE 488.2. VISA
driver provided.
• ABC are automatic crossover voltage/
current stabilizers with full control in both
modes.
• Overvoltage and overcurrent protection are
standard and fully programmable.
• The high efficiency switching topology
used in ABC requires no forced air mech-
anical cooling.
• A highly effective multi-stage output filter
keeps the output ripple and noise down to
linear levels...without the heavy metal.
• A non-volatile memory stores 40 different
combinations of voltage, current, overvoltage,
overcurrent and time interval. They may
be recalled individually or in a step
sequence.
