Introduction:
The Pulse Instruments PI-41700 DC Bias Card, along with other stimulus
cards, is designed for the modular instrument platform CompactPCI®. This
card is a 6U Eurocard size that will plug directly into the CompactPCI®
chassis.
As a test or design engineer you must have state-of-the-art tools to
test, characterize and verify your complex semiconductor devices and
circuit boards. The PI-41700 DC Bias Card is one of the high performance,
low-cost test instrumentation tools being developed by Pulse Instruments.
Instrument Description
The PI-41700 is a dual channel bipolar DC Bias supply that can provide
an output current up to 100 mA per channel. The output voltage ranges from
-8 V to +8 V and features programmable current limits with LED indicators
and software interrupt to show/alert the user if the channel is in current
limit. The PI-41700 also has voltage and current sense for
remote measurement of the voltage and current levels. This sense circuitry
is accessed via banana jacks on the front board flange. The voltage and
current can also be sensed with an 8-bit A/D converter and sent over the
bus. This A/D sense circuitry is meant for measurements not requiring high
precision. The output
connectors are SMA.
