The Keysight E3648A is a 100 W dual-output DC power supply engineered for benchtop and system-level test applications. Each output operates independently across dual voltage ranges—0 to 8 VDC at 5 A, or 0 to 20 VDC at 2.5 A—delivering stable, low-noise power for electronic development, manufacturing test, and quality assurance. Line regulation below 0.01% + 3 mV and load regulation of 0.01% + 3 mV ensure exceptional voltage stability across changing load conditions. Voltage ripple and noise measure less than 5 mVpp (0.5 mVrms) from 20 Hz to 20 MHz, critical for sensitive analog and RF circuits.
