Agilent 6670A Series Single-Output,
2000 W DC Power Supplies, GBIP
Data Sheet
Speed and accuracy for test optimization
This series of 2000 watt DC power
supplies has the exceptional, proven
reliability that test system engineers
look for. It also has the unusual
combination of high efficiency and
low noise operation.
Programming of the DC output and
the extensive protection features can
be done either from the front panel
or using industry standard SCPI com-
mands, via the GPIB. Using the serial
link, up to 16 power supplies can be
connected through one GPIB address.
Test system integration can be further
simplified be using the VXIplug&play
drivers.
The output voltage and current can
also be controlled with analog signals.
This is helpful for certain types of
noisy environments, and also
immediate reactions to process
changes.
Lab-bench use is enhanced by the
fan-speed control, which minimizes
acoustic noise. The extremely low
ripple and noise helps the built-in
measurement system make extremely
accurate current and voltage
measurements.
Fast, low-noise outputs
Analog control of output voltage and current
Fan-speed control to minimize acoustic noise

time required for the output voltage to
begin to change following receipt of
digital data is 20 ms for the power
supplies connected directly to the GPIB
Modulation: (Analog programming of
output voltage and current)
Input signal: 0 to –4 V for voltage,
0 to 7 V for current
Input impedance: 60 kΩ or greater
