PRODUCT INTRODUCTION

Product Overview

72-8795  Programmable  Power  Supply  is  controlled  by  a  Micro  Processor 

Unit  (MPU)  that  is  designed  for  a  communication  interface  by  RS-232  or  USB  to

computer to enable advanced testing and power delivery by programmable control.

with  high  resolution  and  accuracy.  Also,  the  digital  inter face  provides

a speedy, precise and convenient input of information controlled by intuitive controls.

The  adjustment  of  voltage/current  is  made  by  software  calibration,  eliminating 

potential  manual  fault,  that  increases  the  precision  of  the  instrument.   

Over Voltage Protection (OVP) and Over Current Protection (OCP) can be set with the 

software  and  utilized  by  the  hardware  to  achieve  precise,  instant  protection
