The A1589 is an 8-channel four-quadrant bipolar high-voltage board for CAEN multichannel power supply systems (SY1527, SY2527, SY4527, SY5527). Each differential channel delivers up to ±2 kV via SHV connectors with excellent long-term stability, low ripple, and a common floating return to reduce detector noise. Channels support independent ramp rates, programmable current limits, TRIP logic, and constant-current operation, with full voltage/current protections and interlock integration. Designed for precise detector biasing, the board combines high stability, flexible control, and robust safety features in a compact single-width module.

  • 8 independently controllable four-quadrant bipolar HV channels

  • Up to ±2 kV and ±0.5 mA per channel

  • Low ripple, high stability, and internal hardware protections

  • Interlocks, over/under-voltage, and overcurrent protections

  • SHV connectors with common floating return and control software

Software

A complete set of Software Tools is available (free download) to control CAEN Universal Multichannel Power Supply Systems, from low level libraries to graphical application software:

  • OPC Server: CAEN, in collaboration with CERN, has developed an OPC server which allows control of its power supply systems by any OPC compliant client application.

  • HiVoCS: HiVoCS is a Web Interface available on any SY4527-SY5527 CPU. This Interface can be accessed directly via browser without installing any additional software.

  • EPICS IOC: mainframes CPUs integrates an EPICS Input / Output Controller (IOC) that provides access to the Process Variables using the Channel Access Protocol.

  • CAEN HV Wrapper Library: it is a set of ANSI C functions bundled in a library, providing the software developer an unified software interface for the control of all the CAEN Power Supply products.

  • GECO2020: CAEN General Control SW for High Voltage Boards and Systems. it can manage and control CAEN HV power supplies in any form factor as if they were an unique device.
