The HP/Agilent 66101A is a DC power module engineered for integration into the Agilent 66000 Modular Power System (MPS) mainframe. It delivers stable, programmable DC power to 8 VDC at 16 A maximum, supplying 128 W for bias and stimulus applications in automated test equipment and production environments. The module features GPIB programmability with SCPI compliance, electronic calibration, five nonvolatile store-recall states, and user-definable power-on configuration. Programming accuracy reaches ±0.03% + 3 mV for voltage and ±0.03% + 6 mA for current at 25°C ±5°C. Readback accuracy via GPIB or keyboard display achieves ±0.02% + 2 mV (voltage) and ±0.02% + 6 mA (current).
