The Sorensen™ Asterion® DC ASM Series is the newest addition to the Asterion platform of power testing solutions. The new ASM Series features up to three independent, isolated, fixed-range outputs in a 1U high chassis.
The Asterion DC ASM Series, just like the Asterion DC Series, offers complete remote programming and control via Virtual Panels™ GUI, and intuitive front panel touch screen operation. Additionally, the instrument can be controlled via standard LXI Ethernet, USB, and RS232 control interfaces, as well as through the optional GPIB control interface or isolated analog programming.
Advanced Intelligent Control
The Asterion DC Series is operated from the intuitive, easy-to-use front panel touch screen display. Quickly access output programming parameters, measurements, configuration and system settings from the touch screen interface. Functions and parameters can be directly selected from the touch screen or by using the encoder selector button. The control resolution is adjusted by a dynamic rate change algorithm that combines the benefits of precise control over small parameter changes with quick sweeps through the entire range.
Applications
The Asterion DC ASM Series is designed for testing today’s complex electronics, including telecommunications and commercial electronics requiring low profile, light weight power supplies with high power density. Other applications include:
- Military and aerospace electronics test
- Test & Measurement ATE applications
- Semiconductor testing and burn-in
- Commercial manufacturing and process control
- Research and development
- Automotive component and battery testing
