Section I General Information
Danger: This instrument is not rated for use in an explosive environment.
DO NOT use it in an explosive environment or an explosion may result.
This manual provides instructions to install and operate the Trek Model 610D
High-Voltage Supply/Amplifier/Controller.
We recommend you take the time to read this manual to take full advantage of the
features and benefits of the instrument.
Introduction
The Trek Model 610D is a high-voltage supply/amplifier/controller with an output
voltage range of 0 V to ±10 kV and an output current range of 0 to 2000 µA. It can
be operated in any of six modes:
•As a high-voltage amplifier, it amplifies an externally applied signal.
Its gain is fixed at 100 V/V or 1000 V/V, switch selectable,
•As a high-voltage reference supply, it responds to a front panel dial
commanding an output voltage,
•As a transconductance amplifier, it responds to an externally applied
voltage signal to produce a proportional output current. The
transconductance gain is fixed at 20 µA/V or 200 µA/V, switch
selectable,
•As a current supply, it responds to a front panel dial commanding an
output current,
•As a high-voltage controller, it is maintained as in the high-voltage
amplifier mode, but the input amplifier’s input and feedback elements
are uncommitted and available for configuration by the user,
•As a transconductance controller, it is maintained as in the
transconductance amplifier mode, but the input amplifier’s input and
feedback elements are uncommitted and available for configuration by
the user.

Introduction (cont.)
The Model 610D features a compliance limit function. When in a CURRENT
command mode, the compliance function is voltage. When in a VOLTAGE
command mode, the compliance function is current.
The current compliance limit function can be based upon either the total current or a
specific load current path.
The Model 610D features a four-quadrant, active output stage that sinks or sources
current into reactive or resistive loads throughout the output voltage range. This is
essential for achieving the accurate output response and high slew rates demanded by
reactive loads.
The Model 610D is protected against overvoltage and overcurrent conditions that
may be generated by active loads or by output short circuits to ground.
Precision voltage and current monitors provide low-voltage representations of the
high-voltage output and load current for monitoring purposes, or for use as feedback
signals in a closed-loop system.
The current monitors provide a means for close regulation of either the total load
current, I(t), or a specific current path, I(r). When the load includes several current
paths, only one is closely regulated.
The Model 610D can be operated on a bench top or, with optional hardware, in a
standard 19-inch rack.
