The TDK-Lambda Genesys family is a line of programmable AC/DC power supplies engineered to deliver flexible, reliable power for OEM, industrial, and laboratory systems. This 2.4kW 1U series packs a full 2400 watts of regulated output into a single rack unit, offered in twelve models spanning output voltages from 8 V to 600 V and currents up to 300 A. Every model in the series shares an identical front panel, rear-panel analog connections, and digital interface command set, so designers can move between voltage and current ratings without relearning the control scheme.

Genesys supplies are designed to meet the demands of OEM, industrial, and laboratory applications, with 19-inch rack-mount capability for ATE and OEM systems. System designers benefit from standard remote-programming features such as Global Commands and high-speed status monitoring on the RS-485 bus. Test systems built around the IEEE-488 bus can realize significant cost savings using the optional IEEE Multi-Drop interface, which lets a single Master control up to 30 RS-485 Multi-Drop slaves. OEM designers can select from a wide variety of inputs and outputs depending on the application and location.

ValueTronics stocks and holds its own test-and-measurement inventory in a 20,000-square-foot secure warehouse at 1675 Cambridge Drive in Elgin, Illinois. Every used unit we sell is inspected and functionally verified in-house by our technicians before it ships, while new units leave our facility factory-sealed exactly as received from the manufacturer. That combination of held inventory and hands-on used-unit verification lets us match the right Genesys configuration to your application and ship it without delay.

Brand Heritage

TDK-Lambda is the power-supply brand of TDK Corporation. The business traces back to Lambda Electronics and later Densei-Lambda, which TDK Corporation acquired and rebranded as TDK-Lambda in 2008.

Compare Other Models in This Series

The Genesys family spans a complete range of programmable power configurations: 1U 750W half-rack, 1U 750W/1500W/2400W full-rack, 2U 3.3kW/5kW, and 3U 10kW/15kW. All members are identical in front panel, rear-panel analog, and digital interface commands, so a lab or production line can standardize on one control approach across very different power levels.

This 2.4kW 1U group comprises twelve models, from GEN 8-300 to GEN 600-4, each delivering a full 2400 W. The models differ in their voltage-and-current pairing rather than in total power, letting designers choose the rating that best fits the device under test while keeping a consistent footprint and command set.

Each pre-owned model linked below is its own dedicated product page with condition-matched pricing. Select the GEN model whose voltage and current rating fits your application, then review that pre-owned unit's details and availability on its own page.

The twelve 2.4kW models trade voltage for current within the same 2400 W envelope: GEN 8-300 delivers up to 8 V at 300 A, while GEN 600-4 delivers up to 600 V at 4 A, with ten intermediate pairings in between. Output connection hardware also follows the rating, with 8 V to 100 V models using rugged bus-bars and 150 V to 600 V models using a wire-clamp connector.

Several specifications scale with the model's voltage rating, including ripple and noise, programming and readback resolution, and the OVP trip range. The comparison table below lists each model's rated voltage, current, and related figures so you can match the exact rating to your requirement.

Model Output Voltage Output Current OVP Trip Range
GEN8-300 8 V 300 A 0.5~10 V
GEN10-240 10 V 240 A 0.5~12 V
GEN16-150 16 V 150 A 1~19 V
GEN20-120 20 V 120 A 1~24 V

Additional differences in specifications beyond the few shown above are not listed here — see each model's full specifications below.

Important: Limit of one interface option per supply.
Important: Output connections: rugged busbars for 8V to 100V output models; wire clamp connector for output models above 100V (150V to 600V).
Important: Operating altitude is 10,000 ft (3000 m); above 2000 m, derate output current by 2%/100m, or alternatively derate the maximum ambient temperature by 1°C/100m.
Important: The RS-232/RS-485 serial communication cable used to connect the power supply to the host PC (P/N GEN/232-9, GEN/232-25 or GEN/485-9) is ordered separately; only the GEN/RJ45 serial link cable is included with the power supply.
Important: Ripple and noise p-p is measured with a JEITA RC-9131A (1:1) probe for 8V~300V models; for the 600V model it is measured with a 10:1 probe.
