Overview

Circuit Specialists 32 Volt, 5.0 Amp DC Power Supply

Originally the Hantek PPS2116A, Circuit Specialists now sells this great value DC power supply directly. This is the identical product from the original manufacturer, so you get the same great product at an even better price, shipped & supported from the USA!

Due to the success of this product, Circuit Specialists now sells it under our own brand. It is identical to our previous models sold by Hantek. We have made a deal to purchase these great units directly from the same original equipment manufacturer as the Hantek PPS2116A. Now we are able to bring you the same great power supply at a great price by cutting out the middle man.

This benchtop linear power supply is a multi-functional programmable power supply featuring a variable output that can supply 0-32V at 0-5.0 amps. This lab grade power supply boasts all digital controls from the front panel and, for additional options, may be controlled via a PC interface through a rear mounted USB link. For safety, this model has an automatic, internal cooling fan that activates under high load conditions but it runs completely silent most of the time. There is also onboard over voltage protection and over current protection. For fast, repeatable set up there are 5 voltage and current presets and a rotary dial for fine adjustments. With its USB port, the power supply can be connected to a PC and the control software supports data logging.

* Programming Note From a Customer: "I am communicating with the power supply using HyperTerminal on Windows 10. I've found a problem. Your documentation lists the commands for output enable and disable as "O1" and "O0" (first character is capital O). However the commands that work are "o1" and "o0" (lower case o.) Commands in many instruments are not case sensitive but for this instrument they are and the documentation is incorrect."
