l00 Vac Input Power Option 100
General Information
Description
Option 100 is a modification of HP 6033A/6038A power supplies that involves changing a resistor in the A2 OVP circuit,
recalibrating the supply, and changing the Front Panel. These changes allow the units to operate at a lower line voltage of 87
to 106 Vac, while operating on the same line frequency of 48 to 63 Hz. The reduced input voltage limits the output power to
150W and the output voltage from 0 to 17V for the HP6033A, and from 0 to 50V for the HP6038A, while retaining the
standard’s unit output current rating. Other specifications that change due to Option 100 include Programming Response
Time, Overvoltage Protection and Remote Analog Programming.
Scope of Appendix A
This appendix contains all the information necessary to support HP 6033A/6038A power supplies that are equipped with
Option 100. The appendix describes only the changes pertaining to Option 100 and how they affect the other portions of this
manual. Unless otherwise specified in Appendix A, all other portions of the manual apply to both the standard unit and the
Option 100 unit.
Suggestions for Using Appendix A
The Option 100 changes are listed sequentially, starting with Chapter 1 in the main body of the manual and working back
through Chapter 6. It is recommended that the user mark all the necessary changes directly into his manual. This will update
the manual for Option 100 and eliminate the need for constant referrals back to Appendix A.
