🖥️ Display & Control (See → Act)
Large digits, clean layout → quicker checks → fewer mis-sets.
Front keys/knob → tap, adjust, confirm → smooth workflow.
⏱️ Timing Output (Set → Run)
Pick voltage, current, duration → timer drives the curve → complex test profiles run hands-free.
Save sequences → replay later → consistent, comparable data.
💾 Storage & Recall (Profile → Repeat)
Store setups → recall in one step → swap tasks without re-tuning.
Defaults restore → fast recovery after experiments.
🌐 Remote Control (Plug → Perform)
RS-232 + SCPI → automate steps, log data → cleaner reports, fewer manual errors.
Plays nice with fixtures → standardized runs across benches.
🔒 Protection & Thermal (Limits → Safety)
OVP/OCP thresholds → hit a limit → output shuts down, prompts action → DUT and supply stay safe.
Fan cooling → steady airflow → reliable operation 0 °C to 40 °C.
🧪 Where It Fits (Use → Payoff)
Board bring-up → soft ramps + limits → fewer fried parts.
Regulator tests → timed steps → honest transient behavior.
Teaching labs → simple UI + recalls → faster learning, safer benches.
