Power Your Research

Autoranging power is a feature in many power supplies that adjusts voltage and current to maintain the maximum possible power over a specified range of operating values. This optimizes the maximum power depending on the load but does not necessarily provide a fixed power level at varying loads. On the other hand, the constant power feature with the SE.1X Programmable Power Platform offers constant power over changing load conditions, from 0 W to 576 W. Using novel technology, the platform dynamically adjusts voltage and current so that power remains constant over any range up to the maximum, not just over a narrow range of values.

The SE.1X Platform saves money by offering high precision and power (up to 36 V, 16 A, 576 W), and includes data logging and custom waveforms in a user-friendly interface without requiring coding or additional equipment, through the SE Companion software. The platform's accuracy and resolution make it suitable for calibration, potentiostat, and SMU uses, with sinking capabilities up to 2.5 A. Setup time is reduced as user-defined waveforms can be imported and exported to increase efficiency in repeated experiments. By combining multiple device features into one flexible platform, the SE.1X reduces the need for multiple scientific devices, saving setup time, counter space, and overall costs, while facilitating easy setup of repeated experiments.

The SE.1X Platform uses a hybrid approach with no pulse width modulation, that allows a conversion time of less than 1 ms while using constant power mode. As other power supplies on the market can only provide constant power at max voltage or current outputs, this limits the flexibility of a power supply to support user needs. We address the limitations in user control, testing, and product development arising from the absence of highly precise constant power sourcing under dynamic loads at a broad range of output levels. Additionally, with source and measurement accuracy of 0.1 mV, 0.1 mA, 1 μW, the platform provides exceptionally high precision. With no coding required, the platform is flexible as users can run customized waveforms and log power, current, voltage, and other electrical quantities data.

Constant power is particularly beneficial when specific and consistent power output is required, especially in applications where precise power delivery is crucial, such as in battery charging protocols or sensitive electronic testing. As constant power mode adjusts voltage and current to maintain a fixed power level, this is essential for processes that require a stable power input to function correctly, regardless of changes in the load. Using constant power offers several additional advantages, such as reducing the risk of damaging sensitive components or causing them to overheat by providing stable power, which enhances safety. It also ensures uniform conditions in research and development, leading to more accurate and reproducible results.
