    ® Applications R&S NGE100B Parallel and series mode Figure 12-1: Example of series connection 12.1.2 Parallel mode If it is necessary to increase the total current, the power supply outputs must be wired in parallel. The maximum total current is the sum of the individual currents of all sour- ces connected in parallel.
  • Page 137 ® Applications R&S NGE100B Parallel and series mode Principles of operation in parallel mode Generally, a higher current is first supplied from the channel with the higher output volt- age.
