The HP/Agilent 6282A is a regulated DC power supply delivering 0–10 VDC at 0–10 ADC with 100 W maximum output. Designed for laboratory, test, and system integration environments, it provides precise voltage and current control via front-panel potentiometers and dual digital displays. The unit combines tight load and line regulation, sub-millisecond response, and comprehensive protection into a compact 19-inch rack-mountable chassis.
