News Release from: Metrix Electronics | Subject: BK-VSP power supply series
Edited by the Electronicstalk Editorial Team on 12 December 2005
Switch-mode supplies save on the bench
The new BK-VSP power supply series uses modern switch-mode technology to produce high-power low-noise switching supplies that cost around 25% less than linear supplies with the same power
Metrix Electronics offers four models that provide 1.2kW power outputs at voltages up to 20, 40, 60 or 120V DC. They provide precise output voltage control via manual tuning using front panel mounted ten-turn potentiometers or by remote control from an RS232 (or optional GPIB) interface. All models have remote sensing capabilities to automatically maintain desired voltage levels at the load.

Arbitrary function generators run up to 50MHz
A new series of arbitrary function generators is available in the UK from Metrix Electronics
They are housed in compact 1U (44mm) high 19in rack mountable chassis that are just at home on a bench as they are in a rack.
Up to nine units can be cascaded, producing more than 10kW of DC power.
Front-to-back air flow allows full power operation without space between supplies.
Higher-power power supplies like the BK-VSP series are being used in many production test applications such as R and D, magnetic system control, product design, automated test environments (ATE), process control, electroplating and burn-in.
