This high-voltage power supply is a combination of five high-voltage amplifiers and five digital-to-analog converters driven by a controller module. The device is equipped with several analog-to-digital converters for monitoring the output voltages, the power supplies, and the operating temperature. It is built into a metallic 19" case.

The controller module of the device controls and monitors the amplifiers and their power supplies.

The typical output load of the device is an electrode system acting as an electron or ion lens. The output voltages are adjustable in the range of ±200 V. The output current can be as high as 20 mA, which is large enough to drive electrodes that collect high electron or ion currents.

The output channels can be grouped into two pairs to provide a differential control. In this case, the device allows for controlling the mean voltage of each output pair and the voltage difference between the outputs. This is useful if, for instance, the connected electrodes form a deflection electrode system. In this case, the mean voltage determines the focusing properties and the differential voltage controls the deflection.

Typical Applications: Driving electron or ion optics, generation of DC offset voltages for quadrupole mass analyzers (e.g. in connection with the modular radio-frequency generator)
