The Keysight E3620A and E3630A are non-programmable, multiple-output linear DC power supplies built for the bench. They deliver the performance of system power supplies at a modest price, providing clean power with excellent regulation and fast transient response. By packing multiple supplies into one compact unit, they conserve bench space while supplying well-regulated DC to the circuits under test.
These benchtop supplies are intended to satisfy most bench requirements, supplying clean, well-regulated DC for precision circuitry. The E3630A's auto-tracking feature makes it straightforward to adjust the supply for circuits requiring balanced voltages, letting a single control set the +20 V and –20 V outputs together. Both models protect the device under test against overload and short-circuit damage. A DC power supply provides controlled, adjustable voltage and current to power and characterize electronic circuits during design and test.
ValueTronics stocks and holds its own inventory in a 20,000 square-foot secure warehouse at 1675 Cambridge Drive in Elgin, Illinois. Every pre-owned unit is inspected and functionally verified in-house before it ships, while new units ship factory-sealed exactly as received from the manufacturer.
Keysight Technologies traces its roots to Hewlett-Packard, founded in 1939. Hewlett-Packard's test and measurement business was spun off as Agilent Technologies in 1999, and that measurement business was established as Keysight Technologies in 2014.
The E3620A and E3630A are the multiple-output, non-programmable members of the E3600 Series, delivering the performance of system power supplies in a low-cost benchtop form. Both pack multiple isolated outputs into a single compact unit and share the same core regulation, noise, and protection characteristics.
The two models differ primarily in how many outputs they provide and how those outputs are configured — a dual-output design versus a triple-output design with an auto-tracking feature for balanced supply rails.
Each model below links to its own dedicated product page with condition-matched pricing for the pre-owned unit you select. Review the comparison table to confirm the output configuration that fits your bench before choosing a model.
The 50-watt E3620A offers two completely independent and isolated 0 V to 25 Vdc outputs, each rated to a maximum of 1 A, with 10-turn CV/CL control on each output. It is the model that supports the side-by-side rackmount kits and the 1CM/34190A rackmount option.
The 35-watt E3630A offers three outputs — a 0 to 6 V output rated up to 2.5 A and 0 to +20 V and 0 to –20 V outputs each rated 0.5 A — and adds an auto-tracking feature that adjusts the +20 V and –20 V outputs together, tracking to within 1 percent. See the comparison table for the per-model output ratings, meter resolution, and dimensions.
| Model | Outputs | Output Power | DC Output Rating |
|---|---|---|---|
| E3630A | 3 | 35 W | +6 V, 2.5 A; ±20 V, 0.5 A |
| E3620A | 2 | 50 W | 25 V, 1 A (×2) |

Important: Output current is derated 50% between 40 ºC and 55 ºC. Isolation: ±240 Vdc.
Important: Test leads are not included with the base unit; standard shipped accessories are only a product reference CD and power cord. The E3600A-100 Test lead kit is available separately (see options).
Important: Rackmounting with the 1CM or lock-link/flange kit requires Keysight or customer support rails (Keysight Support Rails-E3663AC).
Usage tip: add the E3600A-100 test lead kit for bench connections to the device under test.
