The Conrad Voltcraft 18220 is a one-channel digitally-controlled laboratory power supply with RS-232 connectivity. It came onto the market in about 1996. It was sold by Conrad Elektronik as article 512923.

Hardware

  • Output protection against reverse current: Max. 1 A!

Photos

Protocol

ASCII based.

Manual Operation

Status on power up

The output is disabled. Voltage and current are set to the value on previous power-off. A small negative (!) voltage can be measured while output is off.

Output Control

  • On: Keep button VOLT/AMPERE pressed, press ▲.
  • Off: Keep button VOLT/AMPERE pressed, press ▼.

Voltage Control

  • If LED Volt is not on, press button VOLT/AMPERE.
  • Press ▲ to increase voltage by 50 mV.
  • Press ▼ to decrease voltage by 50 mV.

Current Control

  • If LED AMPERE is not on, press button VOLT/AMPERE.
  • Press ▲ to increase current limit by 100 mA.
  • Press ▼ to decrease current limit by 100 mA.
  • To display current current limit, shorten output externally.

Remote Operation

The sigrok driver for this device will be named voltcraft-18220.
