• Built-in output disconnect relay for each channel physically disconnects device under test when PSU is off

• OVP & OCP protects device from damaging signals by hardware limiting maximum voltage and current available from the PSU

• Remote sense (4-wire) for accurate voltage output at device by compensating for voltage drops at the leads

Software
INTUITIVE, INTERACTIVE, INTERFACE

• Intuitive Web Interface: A highly visual, interactive Web UI display designed for troubleshooting multi-channel setups and remote instrument monitoring

• TSP Toolkit: Facilitates the development of Test Script Processor (TSP™) scripts for automation within the widely-used Microsoft Visual Studio Code (VS Code) editor. More information and downloads found on the TSP Toolkit Product Page

• Supporting Drivers: Accelerate software development with drivers such as Python and IVI

The MP5000 Series is Tektronix’s next-generation modular precision test platform engineered to meet the evolving demands of automated test equipment (ATE) in validation and production workflows. Designed with a compact 1U form factor that supports up to six SMU (MSMU60-2 and MSMU200-2) or this MPSU50-2ST PSU channels per chassis and scales to 192 channels in parallel, native Python drivers, and the intuitive TSP Toolkit IDE, it delivers unmatched flexibility, performance, and automation for semiconductor, optoelectronics, and mission-critical applications.

Customers can mix and match module configurations to optimize cost, throughput, and accuracy. For applications where low current measurements and sinking capabilities aren't required, power supplies can be a cost-effective solution. For applications in which true current sourcing and high-speed measurements are required, consider an SMU module. The system supports a wide array of applications, and its high-density design conserves valuable rack space and reduces cost per channel. It's engineered to deliver fast throughput for high-channel parallel testing, saving both cost and time for production and validation test users.

FAQs: Frequently Asked Questions

1) What advantages does the MPSU50-2ST offer in automated test systems?
The MPSU50-2ST delivers programmable power with high channel density, helping reduce rack space while supporting scalable, automated test environments.

2) Can multiple MPSU50-2ST modules be used in the same MP5000 mainframe?
Yes. Multiple PSU modules can be installed and combined with SMU modules, allowing users to create a customized power and measurement solution.

3) When should I choose the MPSU50-2ST instead of an SMU module?
Choose the MPSU50-2ST when your application requires programmable power delivery without the advanced source-and-measure capabilities of an SMU, helping optimize system cost and throughput.
