Kepco BOP20-5D
The Kepco BOP20-5D is an advanced, fully rated power supply designed to deliver exceptional performance. With an output specification of 20V and 5A, this device doubles as a high-powered operational amplifier, facilitating full 4-quadrant, bipolar operation for a multitude of applications. Its robust output capabilities enable it to sustain direct current (d-c) and accurately replicate arbitrary alternating current (a-c) waveforms.
Engineered for precision and efficiency, the Kepco BOP20-5D allows for smooth and linear control of both voltage and current outputs across the entire rated ± range. Notably, the design enables seamless transitions through zero without the need for polarity switching, enhancing usability in dynamic test environments.
Key Features:
- Full Current Utilization: Source and sink 100% of their rated current, providing versatility in applications.
- Independent Control Circuits: Dedicated circuits for voltage and current management, ensuring automatic crossover to meet specified limits.
- Comprehensive User Access: All control and flag signals are easily accessible through a 50-terminal user port located at the rear, facilitating streamlined integration into testing setups.
- Zeroable Preamplifier: Equipped with a preamplifier capable of scaling and summing external signals for enhanced measurement accuracy.
The Kepco BOP20-5D is not a general-purpose power supply; rather, it serves as a high-speed power operational amplifier ideally suited for applications requiring dynamically agile voltage for testing and simulation purposes. To achieve optimal high-speed performance, it is recommended that load characteristics remain primarily resistive. In cases where the load is capacitive (greater than 0.1 microfarads), adjustments can be made to slow the device and prevent oscillation, specifically in voltage mode by augmenting the feedback capacitance.
For inductive loading scenarios, specialized terminals on the user port enable necessary modifications for maintaining current-mode stability. Experience the operational excellence and versatility of the Kepco BOP20-5D, a powerful tool for testing and simulation in demanding environments.
