QL Series III DC Supplies: Aux Outputs

Auxiliary output

Triple output models: Auxiliary output for low voltage circuits


Aux terminals Aux display


The triple output models incorporate a third "auxiliary" output intended for powering logic and other low voltage circuitry. This output is fully isolated from the main outputs and provides a fully variable voltage of between 1.00 and 6.00 volts at a current of up to 3 amps. Voltage and current can be read on the main display at the touch of a button. An independent output on/off switch is provided. On P versions, voltage and on/off status are bus controllable, and output current and status can be read-back.

Note: The auxiliary output incorporates a switch-mode down converter rather than the pure linear regulation used on the main outputs.
