About The XDC Power Supply
1–2 TM-XDOP-01XN
Overview
The XDC Series of digital, programmable DC power supplies is designed for use in
OEM, ATE, burn-in, magnet charging, and other high power systems for a broad
range of applications. The XDC uses our newly developed digital technology which,
combined with “Soft Switching,” provides superior performance and a high level of
user control through both front panel and remote interfaces.
