  • High voltage dual output laboratory power supply
    Patent number: 5373197
    Abstract: A microprocessor-controlled power supply with substantially independent high voltage outputs monitors and regulates two separate electrophoresis applications running simultaneously. The software associated with the dual output power supply provides independent control of each application, including automatic crossover between control parameters within each application. After parameter values are selected for each application and the applications are initiated, the software monitors the actual parameter values with relation to the selected values and adjusts the actual value of the controlling parameter for each initiated application to maintain the actual parameter values within the selected parameter values.
