The Agilent N6700 Modular Power System – At a Glance
The Agilent N6700 Modular Power System is a configurable, one rack-
unit (1U) platform that lets you mix and match power modules to
create a power system optimized for your test system requirements.
Agilent N6700–N6702 MPS mainframes are available in power levels
of 400 W, 600 W, and 1,200 W. Up to four power modules can be
installed in each mainframe. Power modules come in power levels of
50 W, 100 W, and 300 W, have various voltage and current
combinations, and provide the following performance features:
The N673xB, N674xB, and N677xA DC Power Modules provide
programmable voltage and current, measurement, and protection
features, making these economical modules suitable for powering
the device-under-test or system resources such as fixture
controls.
The N675xA High-Performance, Autoranging DC Power Modules
provide low noise, high accuracy, fast programming times, and
advanced programming and measurement capabilities to speed
test throughput.
The N676xA Precision DC Power Modules provide precise control
and measurements in the milli- and micro-ampere region with
the ability to simultaneously digitize voltage and current and
capture those measurements into an oscilloscope-like data buffer.
The output and system features are described in the following
sections. Not all output features are available on every power
module. The “Model Differences” section describes the features that
apply only to specific power modules.
Output Features
Programmable voltage
and current
Full programming capability is provided for the entire range of output
voltage and current. Outputs can operate as either constant voltage (CV) or
constant current (CC) sources.
Fast command processing Command processing time of less than 1 millisecond per command.
Fast up/down
programming
1.5 millisecond response time from 10% to 90% of the output rating for
autoranging and precision power modules. Refer to Appendix A for details.
Fast transient response Transient response is less than 100 microseconds for autoranging and
precision power modules. Refer to Appendix A for details.
Low output noise Output noise is 4.5 mV peak-to-peak for autoranging and precision power
modules, which is comparable to linear supplies. Refer to Appendix A for
details.
Autoranging capability Autoranging produces the maximum rated power over a wide and
continuous range of voltage and current settings for autoranging and
precision power modules. Refer to Appendix A for details.
