Description
Test racks and multi-rail fixtures often need several higher-voltage supplies at once. The Rohde & Schwarz NGP824 supply is built around four 64 V outputs, with 800 W shared across a four-channel DC power supply. Lost in HCM lists it for rental and sale, so one unit can replace a stack of single-channel sources.
Four rails on the Rohde & Schwarz NGP824 supply
| Output channels | 4 |
|---|---|
| Voltage per channel | 0 V to 64 V |
| Maximum current per channel | 10 A |
| Maximum power per channel | 200 W |
| Total output power | 800 W |
The maximum voltage and the maximum current cannot appear together. At 64 V, 200 W allows 3.125 A. At 32 V it allows 6.25 A. So plan each rail inside its own envelope.
Fixtures with several higher-voltage rails
Four 64 V channels suit development and test fixtures that need more than one higher-voltage rail. For example, a fixture can power a main stage, a driver stage and two auxiliary circuits from one instrument. Also, fewer boxes mean fewer power cords and a tidier rack.
Therefore, before you wire the fixture, list every rail with its normal voltage and steady current. Then add the startup current, and compare the total with the 800 W limit.
Interfaces and logging
USB and LAN are standard on the Rohde & Schwarz NGP824 supply. Also confirm any optional interface your system needs. The QuickArb function and data logging support repeatable runs. However, for an automated sequence, first check the command support on your own software.
Rent or buy the Rohde & Schwarz NGP824 supply
Rent the unit for one project, or try it before you buy. In contrast, a lab with permanent racks may prefer a purchase. For repair, send the serial number, the fault description and photos. SMK Vietnam only shows the listing, so Lost in HCM supplies the unit and confirms the scope.
