Power Supply Use
A power supply
is an electronic instrument that provides either Alternating (AC) or
Direct (DC) Voltage/Current to an electronic circuit.
Applications
Power supplies
find wide applications in:
- Education
-used in technical schools to demonstrate electrical theory
- Design - used
in circuit design to power up circuits
- Service -
used to power up circuit boards under repair
- Maintenance -
used to verify operation for set-up or repair equipment
- Manufacturing
- used as part of the manufacturing process to verify operation
parameters of designed equipment
- Quality
Control - used for final testing of equipment
- Series and
Parallel Operation
Series and
Parallel Operation
There may be times
when you require either more voltage or more current than your power
supply provides. B+K Precision's single output power supplies can be
hooked up in series to provide more voltage or in parallel to provide more
current. On B+K Precision's triple output power supplies, two of the
outputs can be connected in series or parallel by a mere press of a
button.
What Power
Supply is Best for Your Application
As with any test
instrument purchase, you need to consider present and future requirements.
- What is the
maximum voltage required?
- What is the
maximum current required?
- Are multiple
outputs needed?
Review the
selection chart below for a preliminary choice, then go to the specific model number page for complete specifications.
