EDU36311A Triple Output Bench Power Supply Overview

The Keysight EDU36311A triple-output DC bench power supply is designed to offer robust performance and usability at an affordable price. It features 90 W electrically isolated channels that provide clean and reliable power. The 7-inch wide video graphics array (WVGA) display ensures a clear view from instrument setup to output status.

You can easily control the EDU36311A remotely through USB or LAN, via a free download to Keysight’s PathWave BenchVue basic software for PC integration which is beneficial towards a Smart Bench Essentials (SBE) bench setup. This power supply offers accurate voltage/current programming and readback capability, ensuring excellent control and precise power measurement. The low typical mode noise specifications guarantee quality power for precision circuitry applications, allowing you to power your designs with confidence.

With 0.01% load and line regulation, the EDU36311A maintains a steady output even when power line and load changes occur, enhancing measurement confidence. It also includes over-voltage protection (OVP), over-current protection (OCP), and over-temperature protection (OTP) to prevent damage in educational lab environments where multiple students may have access.

The EDU36311A allows you to independently turn on/off the outputs, effectively giving you three power supplies in one instrument. This feature saves bench space and reduces maintenance costs, enabling you to power multiple analog/digital circuits or devices with a single instrument. For additional voltage or current, you can connect Channel 2 and Channel 3 in series or parallel mode to double the output voltage up to 6V or current up to 2A, respectively.
