Best use case
instrument-power-supply is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Teams using instrument-power-supply should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Skill: Programmable DC Power Supply (SCPI)
## 1. Overview
Standard control for T&M power supplies (e.g., Keysight E36300, Rigol DP800).
* **Primary Roles**: Automated DUT power cycling, Current consumption profiling.
* **Interface**: USB, LAN (LXI), GPIB.
## 2. Common SCPI Commands
* **Channel Select**: `INSTrument:SELect CH1`
* **Set Voltage/Current**:
* `APPLy CH1, 3.3, 0.5` (Set CH1 to 3.3V, 0.5A limit).
* `VOLTage 3.3; CURRent 0.5` (Component command style).
* **Output Control**:
* `OUTPut ON` / `OUTPut OFF`.
## 3. Automation Example (PyVISA)
```python
import pyvisa
import time
rm = pyvisa.ResourceManager()
psu = rm.open_resource('USB0::...')
# 1. Reset
psu.write("*RST")
# 2. Configure Channel 1 to 3.3V, 1.0A
psu.write("INST CH1")
psu.write("VOLT 3.3")
psu.write("CURR 1.0")
# 3. Turn On
psu.write("OUTP ON")
# 4. Measure Actual Voltage/Current
meas_v = float(psu.query("MEAS:VOLT?"))
meas_i = float(psu.query("MEAS:CURR?"))
print(f"V: {meas_v:.3f}V, I: {meas_i:.4f}A")
```
## 4. OVP/OCP Protection
Always set Over-Voltage Protection (OVP) to prevent frying the DUT if the PSU glitches.
* `VOLTage:PROTection 3.6` (Trip if > 3.6V).
* `VOLTage:PROTection:STATe ON`.Related Skills
