Programmable voltage slew
For some applications, like inrush
limiting or powering rate-sensitive
devices, it is necessary to slow
down and control the speed of the
power supply to maintain a specific
voltage slew rate. The N6700 pro-
vides programmable voltage slew
rate, so that you can easily control
the speed at which the output
slews from one voltage to another.
You can set the speed of a voltage
change anywhere from its maxi-
mum up/down programming speed
to its slowest change of up to 10
seconds. Programmable voltage
slew is available from the front
panel when operating the N6700
manually or via computer control.
Series operation
To increase available voltage and
power, similarly rated outputs can
be operated directly in series.
Easy parallel operation with
virtual channels
To increase available output power
and current, identical outputs can
be operated in parallel. To simplify
parallel operation for applications
requiring currents greater than
any single output can provide, the
N6700 offers virtual channels, a
firmware-based feature that allows
the N6700 system to treat up to
4 channels as a single, synchro-
nized channel. Once configured, all
functions (sourcing, measurements,
triggering, protection, and status
monitoring) behave as if there is
1 channel of up to 4 times the
capacity of a single channel, with-
out writing a single line of code to
manage the interaction and syn-
chronization of the paralleled power
supplies.
Virtual channel capability is avail-
able from the front panel when
operating the N6700 manually or via
computer control.
Power management feature allows
you allocate mainframe power
Often, a DUT requires a single high
power DC source and several very
low power DC sources. Since the
DUT does not require full power to
all outputs, you may choose to save
money configuring a system where
4
the sum of the power modules
installed in a mainframe exceeds
the total power available from the
mainframe. In this case, the new
power management features of the
N6700 allow you to allocate main-
frame power to the outputs where
it’s needed, achieving maximum
asset utilization and flexibility. This
feature provides the safety from
unexpected and dangerous shut-
downs that can occur with power
systems without power management
when operated in a similar way.
For example, if your DUT requires
280 W on its main input, and 10 W
each on three auxiliary inputs, you
can configure a system consisting
of one 300 W DC module and three
100 W DC modules. Even though
the sum of the module power is
600 W, you can still use the
N6700B 400 W MPS mainframe.
Thanks to the power management
feature, you can allocate the full
300 W to the 300 W module while
you allocate only 33 W to each of
the 100 W modules.
