59501B

Keysight 59501B D/A Converter

The 59501B is a digital-to-analog (D/A) device. It provides the output voltage in response to input data received. This input data fed in digital format. It has two output ranges. These are programmable. Their nominal values are one volt and 10 volts. It also has a switch on the rear panel. It allows the user to select between unipolar or bipolar output modes. The 59501B used to test various electronic components. Its output can be used as programmable voltage. It can control the wide range of DC voltages and current for testing environments.

The 59501B DAC comes with built-in isolators. It prevents other instrumentation from damage by outputs of the power supply. It also has an internal circuit to hold output data. It does so until the programmed data received. The zero adjustment allows the user to take accurate measurements. The 59501B also has an option for full-scale adjustment. The user can get maximum desired output from the power supply. In this case, it is programmed to provide maximum output. It is called voltage programming with gain.

The 59501B has hand-shake functional capabilities. It can act as listener or acceptor for many requirements. Listening indicator is provided on the front panel of the 59501B. It allows the user to monitor the operating status in this mode of operation. The 59501B devices come with manual and related documentation for user convenience.

The front panel of 59501B incorporates various indicators for users. It has power on indicator, a status indicator and four controls. The calibration D/A and power supply are done easily by users. They can use adjustment options on the front panel. It includes zero adjustments, D/A, and power supply full-scale adjustment.
