7.1
The PS1112S Linear Power Supply
The CAEN ELS PS1112S is a single-output +12V mixed switching-linear
power supply that is designed in order to obtain low-noise operation and high
efficiency and it is especially suited for measurement systems where switching power
supplies could corrupt measuring noise, accuracy and precision.
The power supply is housed in a robust and compact stainless steel box that can
be placed next to the supplied device in order to reduce cable lengths and minimize
consequent possible noise pick-up.
