Description
Your first prototype board needs clean power before anything else works. The Keithley 2200-20-5 power supply supplies it from one programmable output and a numeric keypad. USB and GPIB handle remote control. Lost in HCM lists it for rental and sale, so you can rent it for a short build or buy it for a permanent bench. The team also arranges service on request.
Powering boards with the Keithley 2200-20-5 power supply
This model has a single output with a stated maximum of 20 V, 5 A and 100 W. That range covers microcontroller boards, sensor modules and small driver stages. For example, a development kit that runs from a few volts sits well inside it. Because there is only one channel, the setup stays simple. You enter the voltage, then the current limit, then switch the output on.
Front panel and remote control
In the product photo, a black display shows the output readings above the stored settings. Below it you can see a numeric keypad, V-Set and I-Set keys and a rotary knob. Red, black and green terminals sit on the right. USB and GPIB let a PC take over the same settings, so a script can repeat a test overnight.
Where it fits on your bench
The Keithley 2200-20-5 power supply suits three kinds of work.
- Research and design verification on small boards, because one clean rail is often all you need.
- Teaching labs, since the listing names education among its uses.
- Automated test stations that need the same voltage and current every run.
Check your load first. Then compare its peak draw with the 5 A limit before you request a quote.
Before you order the 2200-20-5
Confirm the AC line option, the leads you need and the software on your test PC. Then check polarity and grounding on your circuit before you switch the output on. Follow the current Keithley manual for remote sensing and safe operating limits.
Rent or buy for the 20 V bench
Rent it for a bring-up sprint or a customer audit. Buy the Keithley 2200-20-5 power supply when the same small-board work fills every week. Either way, request a quote from Lost in HCM with your dates and site. You can also browse more power supply listings, read about Keithley at Tektronix or contact SMK Vietnam.
2200-20-5 questions
What can I power with 20 V and 5 A?
Small boards, modules and sensors fit well. Check the peak draw of your load first, because the output tops out at 5 A.
Which ports does the listing name?
It names USB and GPIB, so a modern laptop or an older test rack can both control the unit.
Can a school or university lab buy one?
Yes. The listing lists education among the uses, and Lost in HCM quotes sales as well as rentals.
