Communication interfaces are standard features
Series regulator system with excellent noise performance
High stability and Low Ripple Noise
The PMX-A is based on the capacitor-input type of the series regulator design and which output can be generated with low noise and low ripple compared to the switching regulator design.
[Measurement Condition] Resistive Load, Oscilloscope in 20 MHz bandwidth
Improved usability
Sequence Creation Software SD025-PMX (Wavy for PMX)
The software that supports to the auto testing of the power supply. And it allows you to create and edit sequence data easily using a mouse!
The SD025-PMX (Wavy for PMX) is an application software that supports sequence creation and the operation of the Kikusui power supplie and the electronic load. The “ Wavy” software allows you to create and edit sequences visually using a mouse without programming knowledge. It enables you to control the power supply in much the same way as remote controller for such monitoring the voltage and current, logging and so on.
Operating environment, conditions
- The “Wavy” software can control only one unit of the power supply
- CPU: Recommended: Core2 or better
- CD-ROM: Reguired to install the “Wavy”
- Mouse: Reguired
- Monitor: 1024 x 768 dots or higher resolution
- Memory: 2GB or more
- Interfaces: LAN, USB, RS232C

Digital Interfaces
USB Interface
The USB interface has a feature of high versatility, and the ease of a setup. The automatic recognition by the plug and play releases a user from the complex setting operation under the digital control, and it can be suitable interface when control by 1:1. In accordance with the standard, the maximum number of the connected devices can be configured up to 127 units. Moreover, the USB interface of the PWX series complies to USB2.0, and it has realized transmission speed of a maximum of 12Mbps (es) (Full Speed).
LAN Interface
The LAN interface can control the number of devices with high speed, and it’s theoretical controllable maximum number is to be calculated by approximately 4.2 billion. (The maximum transmission speed varies by the number of connected devices) In accordance with its applied standard, it is possible to combine the device that is to control or to be controlled, it is also the feature that it can be used with various applications. Also, in computers installed with Apple Bonjour, it is possible to access with a host name instead of the IP address.
AUTO MDIX function: The PMX-A series can automatically identify the type of LAN cable whether straight or cross is connected and it connects using the appropriate method.
RS232C Interface
It can be used for communication with PCs and sequencers.
Easy access with the built-in web server
Use a browser from a PC, smartphone, or tablet to access the web server built into the PMX-A series for convenient control and monitoring.
Recommended browser
- Requires for the Internet Explorer version 9.0 or later
- Requires for the firefox 8.0 or later
- Requires for the safari / mobile Safari 5.1 or later
- Requires for the Chrome 15.0 or later
- Requires for the Opera 11.0 or later
* Connecting with a smartphone, tablet, etc. requires a Wi-Fi environment (wireless LAN router etc.).
Analog Interface
The PMX-A series is equipped with external voltage/resistance control, which are interfaces necessary for analog external control and monitoring applications for test power supply devices. The input external signal and the output status signal can be conducted through the J1 connector on the rear panel.
Controlling the Output Voltage & Output Current.
Control using an external voltage(Vext)
It is possible to control the output voltage and output current of the PMX-A series by using an external voltage.
Control using an external resistance(Rext)
It is possible to control the output voltage and output current of the PMX-A series by using an external variable resistor.
Turning output on and off
Control using an external contact (S)
It is possible to turn the output ON/OFF of the PMX-A series by using an external contact.
