Digital Bench Power Supply 0–36 V / 0–8 A with 2.8″ Color Display

Thanks to the dedicated software, the IPS3608 is not just a bench power supply: connecting it to a PC via USB turns it into an advanced measurement and control instrument, perfect for lab work, production testing, electronic development or the projects of the most demanding makers.

The software gives you a complete, intuitive interface from which you can easily manage all the power supply’s functions and access advanced options that go well beyond manual control:
Real-time monitoring – Voltage, current, power and temperature are always under control, with constant updates and the option to log data.
Waveform display – You can observe the trend of voltage and current over time with detailed graphs. The zoom function lets you analyze every detail of the curve, to precisely check the behavior of your circuits.
Configurable presets – Save up to 6 voltage/current combinations, recallable with a click. Perfect for quickly switching between configurations without having to re-enter the parameters every time.
Advanced measurements – The software automatically measures the capacity (Ah) and energy (Wh) delivered during work sessions, useful for checking the actual battery life or a device’s power consumption.
Adjustable brightness – Adapts the screen intensity to the working environment, with 14 levels available.
Complete device information – Data such as firmware version, operating temperature, communication status and other diagnostic information is always available.
Remote control – Turn the power supply’s output on and off directly from the software, so you can always work safely and with maximum control.

Advanced Functions for Automated Testing and Development

The software’s real strength lies in its ability to program and automate the power supply’s operations, making even the most complex tests simple:
Sequential output
Set a series of voltage and current values that the device will run automatically in sequence, with the option of repeated cycles (loops). Ideal for burn-in testing, simulating variable conditions, or testing components that need to be dynamically stressed.
Current scan
Keep the voltage constant and automatically vary the current within the range you prefer, with adjustable step size and custom wait times. Perfect for studying the response of electronic circuits in constant-current mode.
Voltage scan
Similarly, you can fix the current and automatically vary the voltage — useful, for example, for testing variable power supplies or checking the operating threshold of certain components.

Note: While connected to the PC software, manual controls on the power supply are disabled to avoid conflicts — management is handled entirely from the computer.

Basic Interface Overview

① Waveform display area: allows you to record, save and delete voltage and current traces. You can zoom in or out on the waveform using the mouse wheel while viewing a single trace.

② Output voltage and current settings: lets you change the voltage and current values for the currently selected preset group. Changes are temporary and are reset when the device is restarted.

③ Data groups (Presets): lets you quickly select preset voltage and current values. Up to 6 different combinations can be saved.

④ Measurement switch: measures the delivered capacity (Ah) and energy (Wh). The data is reset every time the software is closed and reopened.

⑤ Brightness adjustment: 14 levels available; the highest level corresponds to maximum backlight.

⑥ USB interface information: displays the device model, firmware version, communication speed and port, device address and connection status.

⑦ Basic operating information: shows the input voltage, output voltage, output current, delivered power and internal temperature in real time. From this section you can also control the power supply’s ON/OFF state.

Advanced Interface Overview

① Sequential output:
Automatically runs a sequence of voltage and current parameters, according to the set sequence-number range and loop count.
Clicking “Start” begins the automatic sequence (the other interfaces are locked during execution). Values that have already been set are marked “OK”, while those still to be run show “Waiting”. “Pause” lets you suspend the output while keeping the last active state, while “Continue” resumes the sequence according to the programmed delay.
In Manual mode, clicking “Single step”, you can advance step by step, manually controlling execution; if you stop the test, the output remains at the current parameter.

② Current scan:
With a fixed voltage, this automatically varies the current within a defined range, according to a settable step value and delay time (typically used in constant-current mode).

• Voltage must be set to > 0 V
• Clicking “Start” begins the scan (other interfaces remain inactive). “Stop” interrupts the scan and the output is switched off.

③ Voltage scan:
With a fixed current, this automatically varies the voltage within a set range, according to a settable step value and delay time (typically used in constant-voltage mode).

• Current must be set to > 0 A
• Clicking “Start” begins the scan (other interfaces remain inactive). “Stop” interrupts the scan and the output is switched off.
