California Instruments AST1503 AC/DC Power Source
The California Instruments AST1503 AC power source is engineered for exceptional performance, offering reliable and programmable AC and DC power in a compact and sleek design. With an easy-to-configure interface, it empowers users to harness sophisticated technology tailored for demanding applications in avionics, telecommunications, and commercial electronics.
Designed for high power density, the AST1503 features an intuitive touch screen interface, allowing seamless navigation and control. The innovative iX2 current doubling technology enhances output current capability, enabling current to increase linearly to two times the full voltage current as the voltage decreases from the maximum to half of the range voltage.
This versatile power source can be operated via its user-friendly front panel touchscreen or controlled through standard interfaces including Ethernet LXI, USB, and RS232. For users requiring additional control options, an optional GPIB interface is also available. The AST1503 is capable of operating with either 1-phase or 3-phase input power, accommodating various setups with its 2-wire/3-wire plus ground configuration.
