Tektronix 2280S-60-3 Programmable DC Power Supply

Tektronix 2280S-60-3 Programmable DC Power Supply

The Series 2280S Precision Measurement, Low Noise, Programmable DC Power Supplies are much more than just sources of clean power; they are also precision measurement instruments. They can source stable, low noise voltages as well as monitor load currents over a wide dynamic range from amps to nanoamps. The 2280S-60-3 can output up to 60 V at up to 3.2 A and uses linear regulation to ensure low output noise and superior load current measurement sensitivity.

A high resolution color Thin Film Transistor (TFT) screen displays a wide range of information on measurements. Soft-key buttons and a navigation wheel combine with the TFT display to provide an easy-to-navigate user interface that speeds instrument setup and operation. In addition, built-in plotting functions allow monitoring trends such as drift. These supplies provide the flexibility required for both benchtop and automated test system applications. For example, they provide a list mode, triggers, and other speed optimisation functions to minimise test time in automated testing applications.
