8302 OPERATOR'S MANUAL – SECTION 5

5 Advanced Configuration

The 8302 amplifier was designed to offer excep-
tional versatility in operation. You can choose from
a range of field-configurable options, including:
• Enable the unbalanced or balanced signal input
connections, or use both inputs.
• Select DC-coupled or AC-coupled operation.
• Enable DC Servo to ensure DC offset remains
at zero and safely drive coils and transformers.
• Select Controlled-Current or Controlled-Voltage
modes of operation.
• Select between two compensation networks for
Controlled Current operation: CC1, designed

for loads from 50 µH to 500 µH; or CC2, de-
signed for loads from 500 µH to 1.5 mH.
• Limit current output via programmable current
limits.
• Adjust the amplifier gain from 0.16 to 40 in
increments of 0.16.
• Configure two 8302 amplifiers for operation as
a Push/Pull (series) or Parallel system.
• Enable electronic gain matching to optimize
parallel operation of two 8302 amplifiers.
• Select and enable a synthetic impedance from
0.125 ohms to 0.875 ohms.
