Overview
The R&S®HM8143 is a three-channel arbitrary power supply with two-quadrant operation, so it can both source current into a load and sink current back from it, and it can output arbitrary waveforms — useful wherever the supply condition itself has to change during the test. The model is discontinued and Rohde & Schwarz points users to the R&S®NGC100. KanTek can help you evaluate a successor, arrange repair and calibration for the units you have, and supply original spare parts.
