Introduction
E3632A User’s Guide 3
The E3632A DC power supply features a combination of
programming capabilities and linear power supply
performance that makes it ideal for power systems
applications. The power supply is programmable locally from
the front panel or remotely over the GPIB and RS- 232
interfaces. This power supply has two ranges, allowing more
voltage at a lower current. The desired output range is
selected from the front panel or over the remote interfaces.
Operational features
• Dual range of 15 V/7 A or 30 V/4 A
• Constant voltage (CV) or constant current (CC) operation
• Overvoltage protection (OVP) and overcurrent protection
(OCP)
• Three storage locations (1 to 3) for user- defined operating
states
• Automatic power- on self- test
• Remote sensing for load voltage
• User calibration from the front panel or via the remote
interfaces
