The Kepco JQE6 is a precision regulated DC power supply engineered for applications demanding stable, low-noise output and fine control resolution. This half-rack configuration unit delivers programmable constant voltage and constant current operation with full-range front panel adjustment and optional remote control via resistance or control voltage input. The linear series-regulator topology, driven by integrated circuit operational amplifiers, yields output ripple below 3 mV and MIL-STD-461 compliance.
## Technical Specifications
