How to Choose the Optimal Programmable DC Power Supply

Application Note Overview 

As with any instrument purchase, a power supply’s performance requirements and specifications dictate which manufacturers’ products will be under consideration. The selected product must meet all the requirements for either the R&D application, a manufacturing test system, a test lab such as a quality control lab, or a process control system. Overlooking a feature (or features) can be an expensive error. This application note will recommend the features and specifications for DC programmable power supplies that one should consider to ensure the appropriate instrument is selected and avoid unplanned project delays and costs.
