Description
FAST-Bi-1K5 Power Supply for Precision Testing and Power Control
The FAST-Bi-1K5 Power Supply is a high performance four quadrant digital power solution engineered for advanced testing and energy management applications. Designed for laboratories, industrial environments and research facilities, it combines bidirectional power delivery with regenerative capability to support complex electrical testing requirements.
With output ratings up to ±100 V and ±150 A, this system provides reliable and stable performance for demanding applications such as battery testing, EV development, fuel cell evaluation and power electronics characterization. Its ability to operate in all four quadrants of the voltage current plane allows the unit to function both as a power source and as an active load, enabling comprehensive testing scenarios within a single device.
Digital Control and Multiple Regulation Modes
One of the defining advantages of the FAST-Bi-1K5 Power Supply is its advanced digital control architecture. Users can configure output voltage, current, power and resistance with 24 bit precision at a 100 kHz resolution. This high level of control ensures accurate testing results and stable performance across various electrical loads.
The power supply supports multiple regulation modes including Constant Voltage, Constant Current, Constant Power and Constant Resistance. These operating modes allow engineers to simulate real world power conditions and perform comprehensive system testing for devices such as electronic loads, LED drivers, electromagnets and superconducting magnets.
The digital control loop implemented within the onboard FPGA enables flexible tuning of the output response. Engineers can adjust control parameters remotely to match the specific characteristics of the connected load.
Power Supply with Embedded Monitoring and Energy Efficiency
The FAST-Bi-1K5 Power Supply includes an embedded web server that allows users to monitor and configure the system through a browser based interface using Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. This interface integrates a 24 bit Arbitrary Waveform Generator and a four channel oscilloscope running at 100 kHz, providing powerful diagnostic and signal generation capabilities directly within the device.
Its regenerative architecture improves energy efficiency by returning excess power back to the electrical grid during sink operation. This reduces heat dissipation and lowers operational costs in large testing installations.
Temperature regulated electronics and advanced current sensing technology provide exceptional stability, low noise and high accuracy. Combined with optional trigger inputs, analog control interfaces and thermocouple monitoring, the FAST-Bi-1K5 Power Supply offers a versatile and future ready platform for modern testing laboratories.
