HP / Agilent 6002A DC POWER SUPPLY

The HP/Agilent 6002A is a 200 W benchtop DC power supply delivering stable, adjustable voltage and current for electronic testing, development, and system integration. Its autoranging architecture eliminates the need for multiple conventional supplies by providing full 200 W output across voltage and current combinations from 20 V/10 A to 50 V/4 A. The unit operates in constant-voltage/constant-current (CV/CC) mode with linear regulation, integrated overvoltage protection via crowbar circuit, and both analog front-panel control and optional remote programming for automated test environments.
