Modular Power System at a Glance
The Keysight Modular Power System (MPS) series include 2U rack-mountable mainframe with user-
installable power modules with performance and features that are optimized for automated test
systems. The output and system features are described as follows. The Models and Options section
describes the features that apply to specific modules.
Output features
l
Full programming capability for the entire range of output voltage and current
l
Output autoranging for greater flexibility
l
Output can operate in voltage priority, current priority, or solar array simulator (SAS) modes
l
High-speed up and down output programming
l
I-V Curve List and Table Mode capability
l
Turn-on/turn-off delays allow output on/off sequencing across multiple units
l
Protection capability includes over-voltage, over-current, and over-temperature
l
Solid-state output disconnect switch for fast protection and smooth turn on/off transitions
