== Hardware ==
See [[Atten PPS3000 series]] for information common to all devices in this series.


See the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ju9Q05y_3V0 EEVblog teardown] for details about this device's internals.
== Quick start ==


== Protocol ==
The following command will set the voltage on channel #2 to 5.0V, current limit to 0.5A, and then will query the device in continuous mode:


Communication to/from the device is via the RS232 port or serial-USB port. The serial parameters on the device are by default set to 9600 baud, and "data" (data bits) set to 9. This is not a standard number of data bits. The vendor software works around this by using Mark parity. Since this is not a supported parity setting in POSIX, setting parity to None and stop bits to 2 also works.
<small>
$ '''sigrok-cli --driver=atten-pps3203:conn=/dev/ttyUSB0 --channel-group=CH2 \'''
  '''--config "voltage_target=5:current_limit=0.5:enabled=on" --continuous'''
</small>


Every communication to and from the device occurs in 24-byte packets. The device sends a packet only when it receives one from the host. Values such as voltage and current, when set by the host, contain the current values as shown on the display when received from the device. There is thus no way to receive the set values back from the device.

The 24-byte packet is structured as follows:

The Atten PPS3203T-3S is a 3-channel programmable power supply with USB-serial and RS232 connectivity.

See Atten PPS3203T-3S/Info for more details (such as lsusb -v output) about the device.

This device is also sold as the Tenma 72-8795 by Farnell/Newark.

See Atten PPS3000 series for information common to all devices in this series.

Quick start

The following command will set the voltage on channel #2 to 5.0V, current limit to 0.5A, and then will query the device in continuous mode: 

$ sigrok-cli --driver=atten-pps3203:conn=/dev/ttyUSB0 --channel-group=CH2 \
  --config "voltage_target=5:current_limit=0.5:enabled=on" --continuous
