Description
Bias voltage needs very little current. The Keysight E36106B power supply is a single-output benchtop source rated 100 V, 0.4 A and 40 W, which makes it the high-voltage member of its range. Lost in HCM lists it for rental and sale in Vietnam.
What the 100 V rating is for
Keysight places the E36106B in the E36100B Series of benchtop DC supplies. Here the ratings multiply to 40 W, because 100 V times 0.4 A equals 40 W. So think of it as a source for parts that need a lot of voltage but little current. Examples include sensor bias, component leakage checks and charging small capacitors under supervision.
Handle 100 V with care
At this level, a careless touch can hurt. First, switch the output off before you touch the fixture. Second, use shrouded leads and enclosed test fixtures. Third, discharge any capacitor before you handle the part. Also tell trained staff about the setup, and follow your site safety rules at all times.
Planning a test with the Keysight E36106B power supply
Write down the target voltage, the expected current and the stop condition. Then set the current limit well below the part’s rating. As a result, a fault trips the limit instead of damaging the device. Keep notes on every step, because repeatable high-voltage tests need a clear record.
Quote and delivery
Rental suits a qualification campaign with fixed dates. Purchase suits a lab that runs bias tests every week. Send your dates, the plug type at your site and your delivery city, then request a quote from Lost in HCM. Other power supplies are in the same category. The Keysight website has family documents, and you can contact SMK Vietnam with questions.
E36106B questions
Can the Keysight E36106B power supply drive a load that needs 1 A?
No. The current ceiling is 0.4 A. Choose a unit with a higher current rating for heavier loads.
Is the output safe to touch?
No. Treat 100 V DC as dangerous, and use shrouded leads, enclosed fixtures and your site safety procedures.
How do I choose between this and the lower-voltage models in the series?
Match the highest voltage and the peak current your part needs. The lower-voltage models offer more current, while this one offers the most voltage.
