The HP 6552A is a 500 W linear DC power supply delivering 0–20 V and 0–25 A output, engineered for automated test systems and benchtop measurement applications. It operates in both constant voltage and constant current modes with automatic crossover, maintaining stable delivery across varying loads. Fast programming response and exceptionally low output noise—300 µV RMS and 3 mV peak-to-peak—enable precise measurements and accelerated test cycles. Remote sensing compensates for voltage drop in load leads, while fan-speed control minimizes acoustic noise during operation.
