Small Size and
Flexibility for ATE
The Keysight N6700 MPS gives test
system designers the flexibility to mix and
match from over 30 different DC power
modules to create a 1- to 4-channel DC
power system or electronic load system
optimized to meet specific test require-
ments. Test system engineers can invest
in high-performance outputs where speed
and accuracy are needed, or purchase
basic performance outputs for simple DC
power requirements or an electronic load
is required for power supply testing.
Small size
The Keysight N6700 MPS uses an advanced
switching power supply design that fits
within 1U of rack space (1.75 in./44 mm).
It has side air vents (no top or bottom air
vents) so other instruments can be mounted
directly above or below it. (Requires rack
mount kit; see ordering information.)
Built-in measurement of voltage
and current
The N6700 modules come standard with
built-in measurement of voltage and current
to simplify wiring and design of an ATE
system.
Protection features
Each N6700 module is protected against
over-voltage, over-current, and over-
temperature. A fault condition in one
module can be detected within 10
microseconds by other modules so that
they can be quickly shut down to avoid
hazardous conditions on your device
under test (DUT).

specification
Power supplies and electronic loads are
a fundamental component of every test
system in industries including aerospace
and defense, consumer electronics, com-
puters and peripherals, communications,
semiconductor and automotive electron-
ics. Today’s complex automatic test
equipment (ATE) systems often require
multiple power sources or electronic loads.
Test system designers are challenged to
keep costs down by reducing rack space
occupied by these multiple power supplies
or electronic loads and to continually
increase test system throughput.
The Keysight Technologies, Inc. N6700
Low-Profile Modular Power System (MPS)
is a 1U (rack unit) high, multiple-output
programmable DC power supply or
electronic load system that enables
test system integrators to optimize
performance, power and price to match
test needs.
Connectivity
The N6700 MPS comes standard with GPIB,
USB 2.0, and 10/100 Base-T ethernet LAN
interfaces. While GPIB is best suited for use
with existing systems, Keysight offers USB
and LAN to allow you to take advantage
of the availability, speed, and ease-of-use
of common computer industry standard
interfaces. The N6700 is fully compliant
with the LXI Class C specification.
Security
When used in systems running GPIB,
the LAN and/or USB interfaces can be
disabled for extra security. Also, all
non-volatile RAM data and settings can
be cleared from the front panel.
Control from any browser
The N6700 can be controlled via a standard
web browser. The N6700 contains a web
server that provides web pages for monitor,
control, and setup of the MPS.
