Products & Services
AC Power Sources
AC power sources provide alternating power and typically have adjustable output values for the testing of component response at various voltages, current and frequency levels.
Voltage Multipliers
Voltage multipliers are AC-to-DC conversion devices that produce a high potential DC voltage from a lower voltage AC source. They are used to produce high voltages where low current is required. 
Power Rectifiers
Power rectifiers are electrical devices that convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). They are an integral part of telecom rectifiers for the telecommunications industry, and in battery chargers, DC power systems, and other power system devices.
Board Mount Voltage Multipliers
Board mount voltage multipliers are AC-to-DC conversion devices mounted to a printed circuit board (PCB) that produce a high potential DC voltage from a lower voltage AC source.
