The Keysight N6792A is a 200 W electronic load module engineered for precision testing of DC power sources and battery systems. This double-wide, 1U module integrates into Keysight N6700 series mainframes and delivers four operating modes—constant voltage, constant current, constant resistance, and constant power—with synchronized high-speed digitization of voltage and current. Measurement and programming accuracy reach 25.2 mV, with noise and ripple controlled to 5 mVrms. The module supports programmable voltage slew rates across all parameters, arbitrary waveform generation, LIST mode sequencing, and integrated data logging. Four-wire remote sensing ensures measurement integrity at low voltages: 40.0 A at 1.6 V, 25.0 A at 1.0 V, 12.5 A at 0.5 V, and 2.5 A at 0.1 V.
