Makes a great tool for ATE
systems that require an
advanced user interface for test
and debug
While the Agilent N6705 DC
power analyzer is designed
primarily as an R&D bench tool,
customers building ATE systems
may find the Agilent N6705 has
great utility in an ATE system. It
is fully programmable, LXI class
C certified, and takes the same
commands as the Agilent N6700.
But thanks to its large display
and easy to use controls, test
engineers may find the Agilent
N6705 makes a great tool for
visualizing test results as the
tests execute, for DUT trouble-
shooting, for DUT debugging,
and f o r ATE test development,
The Agilent N6705 mounts in a
standard 19” rack using standard
rack mount hardware for 4 U
instruments.
Achieve correlation and
share data between R&D and
manufacturing
The Agilent N6705 DC power
analyzer is a modular system
that uses the same DC power
modules as the N6700 low-profile
modular power system for ATE.
Customers who use the N6705
in R&D and the N6700 in manu-
facturing can easily achieve test
correlation between R&D testing,
design characterization/valida-
tion testing, and manufacturing
testing because the DC power
modules are common to both the
bench and ATE versions of the
product. Test programs can be
easily shared between R&D and
manufacturing since the Agilent
N6705 and the Agilent N6700
share a common command set.
Power management feature
allows you to allocate N6705
mainframe power
Often, a DUT requires some high
power DC sources and several very
low power DC sources. In this case,
you may choose to configure a
system where the sum of the power
modules installed in the Agilent
N6705 exceeds the total power avail-
able from the Agilent N6705 main-
frame. The power management fea-
tures of the Agilent N6705 allow you
to allocate mainframe power to the
outputs where it’s needed, achieving
maximum asset utilization and flex-
ibility. This feature provides safety
from unexpected and dangerous
shutdowns that can occur with power
systems without power management
when operated in a similar way. For
example, if your DUT requires 250 W
on two of its inputs, but only 10 W
each on two auxiliary inputs, you can
configure a system consisting of two
300 W DC modules and two 50 W DC
modules. Although the sum of the
module power is greater than 600 W,
you can still use the Agilent N6705.
Thanks to the power management
feature, you can allocate the 250 W
each to the two 300 W modules while
you allocate only 25 W to each of the
50 W modules.
Universal AC input
The Agilent N6705 has a universal
input that operates from 100-240
VAC, 50/60/400 Hz. There are no
switches to set or fuses to change
when switching from one voltage
standard to another. The AC input
employs power factor correction.
