This chapter provides a brief overview of the basic differences
between the Agilent N6700 series DC Power Modules. Note that the
basic capabilities of a power module depend not only on its hardware
capabilities, but also the on the hardware and firmware capabilities
of the mainframe in which it is installed.
In addition to their primary output and measurement capabilities,
power modules installed in an Agilent N6705 DC Power Analyzer
have expanded capabilities such as front panel scope view, arbitrary
waveform generation, and internal and external data logging.
Refer to the Agilent N6700 or N6705 User’s Guide for more
information about the power module capabilities.

Power Module Option Characteristics
Option 760 & 761
Option 761 provides output and sense disconnect relays. Option 760
provides polarity reversal in addition to output and sense disconnect.
Note that models N678xA SMU have output and sense disconnect
relays built in.
Option 760 limits the output current to 10 A on Models N6742B
and N6773A.
Option 760 is not available on Models N6741B, N6751A, N6752A,
N6761A, N6762A, and N6781A N6784A
Although the plus and minus rail of the output power mesh are
physically disconnected from the output terminals with options 760
and 761, a small AC network is still connected across the plus and
minus output terminals (see figure).
Option 054
Option 054 (High-speed Test Extensions) include output list and
digitized measurement capability. This option is separately orderable
for Models N673xB, N674xB, N677xA, and N675xA when installed in
an N6700 MPS mainframes. All other power modules as well as the
N6705 DC Power Analyzer mainframes have output list and digitized
measurement capability built in.

Arbitrary Waveform Generator Maximum Bandwidth
NOTE The information in this section only applies when the power modules are
installed in an Agilent N6705 DC Power Analyzer.
The following tables characterize the maximum bandwidth of the
arbitrary waveform generator. The maximum bandwidth is based on
a sine wave into a resistive load and apples to any output current.
The following definitions apply in the frequency tables:
V p-p =
Voltage peak-to-peak
3 dB max. =
Max. frequency where the voltage drops to 3 dB below its setting
6 dB max. =

Arbitrary Waveform Generator Maximum Bandwidth
NOTE The information in this section only applies when the power modules are
installed in an Agilent N6705 DC Power Analyzer.
The following tables characterize the maximum bandwidth of the
arbitrary waveform generator. The maximum bandwidth is based on
a sine wave into a resistive load and apples to any output current.
The following definitions apply in the frequency tables:
V p-p =
Voltage peak-to-peak
3 dB max. =
Max. frequency where the voltage drops to 3 dB below its setting
THD 3 dB =
The total harmonic distortion at 3 dB max. frequency
THD < 1.5% =
The frequency below which the THD is less than 1.5%.

1 Output current is derated 1% per °C above 40°C.
2 Applies when measuring currents that remain within the low range. Due to thermal settling, when transitioning
from measuring full-rated output current (the worst case), to measuring the current within the low range, the low
range accuracy specification is typically met within 5 seconds after the current has transitioned into the low
range. Accuracies within this 5 second settling period are typically 2X the specified accuracy or better.
3 When relay option 760 or 761 is installed on Models N6763Aand N6765A, the settling band is ±200 mV.
4 When relay option 760 or 761 is installed on Models N6764Aand N6766A, the settling band is ±350 mV.

1 If you are operating the unit below 255 µA in constant current mode, the output may become unregulated with the
following load conditions: The load resistance is <175 mΩ and the load inductance is >20 µH. If this occurs, an
UNRegulated flag will be generated and the output current may rise above the programmed value but will remain
less than 255 µA.
2 Correction On compensates for current flowing into the output capacitor during voltage transients
3 Modules can discharge the specified capacitive load from full scale to 0V at a rate of 4 times/second.
4 In Current priority mode, minimum delay is 23 ms without relays and 45 ms with relay Option 760.

Arbitrary Waveform Generator Maximum Bandwidth
NOTE The information in this section only applies when the power modules are
installed in an Agilent N6705 DC Power Analyzer.
The following tables characterize the maximum bandwidth of the
arbitrary waveform generator. The maximum bandwidth is based on
a sine wave into a resistive load and apples to any output current.
The following definitions apply in the frequency tables:
V p-p =
Voltage peak-to-peak
3 dB max. =
Max. frequency where the voltage drops to 3 dB below its setting
THD 3 dB =
The total harmonic distortion at 3 dB max. frequency
THD < 1.5% =
The frequency below which the THD is less than 1.5%.
Voltage 3 dB max THD 3 dB THD < 1.5%

1 When using an Agilent N6705A mainframe and connecting through the front panel binding posts, additional
output capacitance causes large measurement peaking/overshoots when the load impedance is greater than
~1 k. This does not apply to Agilent N6705B mainframes. When using an N6705A or N6705B mainframe and
connecting directly to the module connector, there are slight measurement peaking/overshoots when the load
impedance is greater than ~10 k.

Note 1
Note 1. When sinking power, Agilent Model N6784A
can operate at the maximum rated output power for
only a limited amount of time. The unit monitors the
temperature of the internal power devices and
latches the output off if the output power causes
the temperature to exceed its safe limit. A protect
clear is required to resume normal operation. The
condition is annunciated by the OT status bit. Refer
to the downprogrammer derating figure for the
values of the safe limit boundaries.
