The Keysight E36232A is a 200 W programmable bench power supply delivering 0–60 V at 0–10 A with autoranging capability that maximizes current delivery across the entire voltage range. Single-output design provides precise voltage and current control with exceptional load and line regulation (better than 0.01%) and ultralow noise performance, making it ideal for R&D, manufacturing test, and device characterization. The 4.3-inch color LCD display with color-coded controls and binding posts enables intuitive operation, while integrated over-voltage, over-current, and over-temperature protection safeguards test devices. Variable slew rate control manages inrush current for sensitive loads. Local 2-wire or remote 4-wire sensing modes optimize measurement accuracy and load regulation across bench and system configurations.
