General Description 

The Sorensen Asterion DC multioutput ASA Series of DC power supplies is a three-
channel output supply in 1U Full rack size. Channel output voltage/ current ratings are 
selectable  when  ordering  the  power  supply.  Asterion  DC  multioutput  ASA  Series 
combines intelligence and flexibility to create an advanced platform of DC solutions. 

 

 

Figure 1-1: Asterion DC Series Power Supply, 1U Models 

The ASA Series power supply is a 3-output channel supply of 600W/Channel in 1U 
Full rack size. ASA Series is offered with Extended Wide Range Voltage and Current 
Models. The Extended Wide Range channels provides expanded current and voltage 
range at the full output power level, enabling the ability to satisfy a wider testing need 
without requiring the purchase of additional models.  

The Asterion DC Multioutput ASA Series is Digital Signal Processor (DSP) controlled 
and  can  be  operated  from  the  intuitive,  easy-to-use  front  panel  touchscreen  or  the 
Ethernet  LXI,  USB,  and  RS232  standard  control  interfaces,  as  well  as  through  the 
optional GPIB control interface. 

The power supply can also be operated using Multioutput DC Virtual Panels. Virtual 
Panels allow remote control of the Asterion DC power supply as well as programming 
communication and monitoring of the instrument. You can perform all operations via
