Description

The Testkey TK6860 and TK6870 linear DC power supply family provides one output with two selectable voltage/current ranges. Compare the six models by the voltage, current and power limits available in each range.

Each model provides one output with two selectable voltage/current ranges. Compare both ranges for the intended DUT, including their individual power ratings. The DVM has its own 80 Vpk input limit. TK6874A range 2 uses a 72 V maximum and 2 mV voltage-setting resolution.
