2 Introduction
B&K Precision models 1685B, 1687B, and 1688B are laboratory grade switching mode
DC power supplies with high current output in a small form factor and lightweight
package. The 1685B Series provides various configurations of output voltage and
current, and makes setting voltage and current levels fast and precise through its
dual action, coarse/fine rotary encoder control knobs. In addition to its constant
voltage (CV) and constant current (CC) modes, the high efficiency DC power supply
offers a unique solution with its preset and analog remote control modes. Save up to
three different presets of voltage and current values for quick recall. The analog
remote control function allows the output power, voltage, and current to be adjusted
without touching the front panel of the power supply. These features make the
1685B Series suitable for a wide range of applications including production testing,
telecommunications, R&D, service, and university labs.
