Chapter 1 General Introduction
1.1 General Introduction
The PGPS-36V3A Power Supply is a compact programmable DC power supply. It is equipped with back-light LCD
display, number keypad, and rotary knob which make it easy to use. It can be operated in constant voltage mode
or in constant current mode. Programming features include over-current protection, maximum output voltage,
power limitation, and 10 parameters of storage. It is an essential instrument for scientific research, educational
institutions, and service technicians.
