OWON SPE6103 60V 10A Programmable Lab DC Power Supply Documentation
The OWON SPE6103 is a high-performance, programmable lab DC power supply that provides a stable and adjustable output voltage of up to 60V and a maximum current of 10A. This power supply is ideal for various applications, including laboratory testing, prototyping, and development of IoT devices.
Programmable output voltage (0-60V) and current (0-10A)
High accuracy and stability (0.01% + 10mV)
Fast response time (<10ms)
Built-in over-voltage, over-current, and short-circuit protection
USB interface for remote control and monitoring
Compatible with various programming languages, including Python, C++, and MATLAB
The OWON SPE6103 can be controlled and programmed using the provided USB interface and accompanying software development kit (SDK). The SDK includes libraries and examples for various programming languages, allowing users to easily integrate the power supply into their applications.
### Example 1: Python Control using PySerial
In this example, we will demonstrate how to control the OWON SPE6103 using Python and the PySerial library.
Python 3.x installed on the host computer
PySerial library installed (`pip install pyserial`)
OWON SPE6103 connected to the host computer via USB
Code
```python
import serial
# Initialize the serial connection
ser = serial.Serial('COM3', 9600, timeout=1) # Replace COM3 with the actual USB port
# Set the output voltage to 12V
ser.write(b'SET VOLT 12.0
')
print(ser.readline()) # Read the response from the power supply
# Set the output current to 5A
ser.write(b'SET CURR 5.0
')
print(ser.readline())
# Read the current output voltage and current
ser.write(b'READ VOLT
')
print(ser.readline())
ser.write(b'READ CURR
')
print(ser.readline())
# Close the serial connection
ser.close()
```
### Example 2: C++ Control using the OWON SPE6103 SDK
In this example, we will demonstrate how to control the OWON SPE6103 using C++ and the provided SDK.
C++ compiler (e.g., GCC) installed on the host computer
OWON SPE6103 SDK installed and configured
OWON SPE6103 connected to the host computer via USB
Code
```cpp
#include <iostream>
#include "SPE6103.h" // Include the OWON SPE6103 SDK header file
int main() {
// Initialize the power supply
SPE6103 ps;
ps.Init("COM3"); // Replace COM3 with the actual USB port
// Set the output voltage to 24V
ps.SetVoltage(24.0);
std::cout << "Output voltage set to 24V" << std::endl;
// Set the output current to 8A
ps.SetCurrent(8.0);
std::cout << "Output current set to 8A" << std::endl;
// Read the current output voltage and current
double voltage = ps.GetVoltage();
double current = ps.GetCurrent();
std::cout << "Output voltage: " << voltage << "V, Output current: " << current << "A" << std::endl;
// Close the power supply connection
ps.Close();
return 0;
}
```
These examples demonstrate the basic control and programming of the OWON SPE6103 using Python and C++. The power supply can be controlled and monitored using various programming languages and interfaces, making it a versatile tool for a wide range of IoT applications.
