Accessories Agilent No. Description 34551A Rack mount for Agilent 66001A MPS keyboard Description The Agilent 66lxxA Series Power Modules are used in the Agilent 66000 Modular Power System (MPS) mainframe to provide a range of dc output voltages and currents. The modules are installed or removed from the front of the mainframe without the need for disconnecting any wires. Modules may be connected in series or parallel to provide increased output voltages or currents. The modules can be eq

When the power module is operated beyond either rated output, the performance specifications are not guaranteed, although typical performance may be good. Operation in quadrant 2 is limited to about 10% of the maximum rated positive output current. This allows the power module to sink current for more rapid downprogramming in the CV mode. Specifications and Supplemental Characteristics Table 1-1 lists the specifications of the power modules. Specifications are warranted over the specified tem

Remote Inhibit (RI) Function Switches This function allows the power module outputs to be shut down from a signal (low-true TTL level) applied to the mainframe INH input. The INH input is internally connected to the mainframe remote inhibit (RI) line. This line is normally high and is distributed to all power modules in the mainframe. An external switch closure that shorts the mainframe INH input is detected by the power module as an RI signal. Note See "Chapter 3 - Connections" in the mainfr

Installing The Module In The Mainframe Figure 2-3. Power Module Installation Note A fully loaded mainframe can weigh over 36 kg (80 lbs). Install the mainframe into the rack (see the "Mainframe Users Guide") before installing the modules into the mainframe. 1. Turn off the mainframe power switch. 2. Make certain the pull tab extends from the module (see Figure 2-3). 3. Slide the module into the mainframe slot. You may use any available slot. 4. Push the module into the backplane connector unt
