Power and Output Capabilities

The Keysight Technologies (Agilent HP) N5700 Series - 750W family covers a power envelope from 600 W to 780 W, depending on the specific model variation. These units deliver maximum output voltages from 6 V up to 600 V and currents from 1.3 A to 100 A.

For high-power testing demands, the Keysight Technologies (Agilent HP) N5700 Series - 1500W provides output power up to 1560 W. To expand capabilities further, multiple supplies of the same rating can be configured together. The 750W configuration supports parallel operation of up to 4 identical units and series operation of up to 2 identical units.

Physical Dimensions and Interface Form Factors

The two power levels feature distinct physical form factors and interface displays:

  • N5700 Series - 750W: Designed as a slim 1U rack-mount unit measuring 422.8 mm x 43.6 mm x 432.8 mm and weighing 7 kg. It features a dual digital LED display that shows voltage and current simultaneously. Output terminals are located on the rear panel as bus bars or wire-clamp connectors.
  • N5700 Series - 1500W: Housed in a 2U form factor with dimensions of 423 mm x 88.1 mm x 432.5 mm and a weight of 16.3 kg. It uses an LCD display, features a fan-cooled system with rear exhaust, and offers 240 Vdc of output isolation from output to chassis.

Programming, Control, and Protection Features

Both configurations support advanced programming and analog system integration. Standard remote interfaces include GPIB, LAN, and USB. For analog programming and monitoring, both families offer selectable signal levels of 0-5 V or 0-10 V.

Built-in safety features include Over-Voltage Protection (OVP), Over-Current Protection (OCP), and Under-Voltage Limit (UVL) to safeguard connected devices under test. The 750W variants also offer LXI Class C compliance.

Frequently asked questions
