Power forward

Designs change—and so should your DC power supply. Meet the

E36100, engineered by Keysight to power your designs safely and

quietly during manual tests or automated sequences. From every

angle—size, display, and I/O—the E36100 will impress you. Add

one to your bench and power forward.

– Choose the best model for your needs: ve models offer up to

5 A or 100 V

– Save space on your bench or in the rack with the compact,

2U ¼-rack form factor

– Connect for computer control with standard LAN (LXI Core)

and USB connectivity

– Perform manual tasks quickly with the intuitive on-screen

menu system

– Easily view the high-contrast OLED display from anywhere on

your bench, even from a sharp angle

– Protect your device under test (DUT) with overvoltage and

overcurrent detection

– Power your DUT with condence through excellent accuracy

in programming and readback

Accurate, reliable power

The E36100 Series is the latest addition to Keysight’s industry

standard family of bench power supplies, backed with Keysight’s

standard 3-year warranty.

Power your DUT with excellent voltage and current programming

and readback accuracy. Use the power supply’s highly accurate

low-current measurement feature for demanding measurements.

Protect your DUT with built-in overvoltage and overcurrent

protection, and count on the built-in overtemperature protection

to keep your power supply safe.

Excellent front-panel usability

The clean design of the E36100 Series front-panel lets you

become productive with the unit very quickly. The easy-to-use

rotary knob and keypad interface allows you to set the output

at your desired resolution quickly and easily, with digit-by-digit

control. You can store and recall up to 10 complete power supply

setups from non-volatile memory in order to quickly change

instrument states. The output on/off key quickly turns the output

on and off.

Fast, industry-standard programming

Every E36100 Series model ships standard with both LAN (LXI

Core) and USB (TMC488). The easy-to-use SCPI (Standard Com-

mands for Programmable Instruments) programming language

lets you create fast and simple programs with transient response

faster than 50 µs and fast command processing time–less than

10 ms. You can also program the instrument with the power

supply’s Interchangeable Virtual Instruments (IVI) driver.

Use the Keysight IO Libraries Suite (www.keysight.com/nd/

iosuite) to accelerate your programming. The IO Libraries’

instrument-centric view and auto-discovery of instruments get

you connected to your instrument quickly.

Simple, powerful soft front panel

When you cannot be near your DUT, open your browser and con-

trol the instrument via the power supply’s bullt-in Web interface,

with a look and feel that replicates the front-panel experience.

BenchVue control and visualization

BenchVue software for the PC makes it simple to connect,

control, and view Keysight power supplies simultaneously with

other Keysight bench instruments without programming.

– Visualize the outputs of multiple power supplies

simultaneously

– Log data, capture screen shots, and save a system state

– Recall a past state of your bench to replicate results

– Export measurement data in desired format fast

– Quickly access manuals, drivers, FAQs and videos

– Monitor and control bench from mobile devices

The power supply app within BenchVue lets you control power

supplies, visualize voltage and current output, log data, and

annotate captured data (included in BV0000A, available as a free

download at www.keysight.com/nd/BenchVue). Upgrade to the

Pro version (BV0003A) for unrestricted data logging with limit

checking and status alerts. Use the companion BenchVue Mobile

app to monitor and respond to long-running tests from anywhere.

Easy power and I/O connection

Connect for computer control with standard LAN (LXI Core) and

USB connectivity. Use the security slot to keep the supply on your

bench.

Do you need to convert the power supply for different mains

power? The two switches on the bottom of the instrument make

it straightforward. See the product manual for details.
