CURRENT FOLDBA CK Another form of current limiting often used in fixed output v oltage supplies.

17 PRINCIPLES OF OPERA TION Electronic power supplies are defined as circuits which transform electrical input power- -either ac or dc- -into output power-- either ac or dc.
18 A sim ple unregulated power supply consisting of only a rectifier and filter is not capable of providing a ripple free dc output voltag e whose value remains reasonably constant. To obtain ev en a coarse approximation of the ideal output characteristic of Figure 1, som e type of control element (reg ulator) must be included in the supply.

These supplies also exhibit the lowest ripple and noise, are tolerant of ambient tem perature changes, and with their circuit sim plicity, have a hig h reliability.

Another item not found in the prev ious regulators is "flyback " diode CR F . This diode is connected to a third transformer winding which is bifilar wound with the primary.

Basic Sw itching Regulator Conf i gurat ions Configuration B is a useful alternativ e to push-pull operation for lower power requirem ents It is called a forward, or feed- t hrough, conv erter because energy is transferred to the power transformer secondary imm ediately following turn- on of the switch.
32 Figure 14 illustrates a ty pical SCR regulated supply w hose output is continuously v ariable down to near zero volts. Circuit operation is v ery similar to the SCR prereg ulators described previously , except that the SCR control circuit receives its input from the voltage com parison amplifier.
33 Figure 15. Ideal Const ant Current Pow er Supply O ut put Characteristi c Any one of the four basic constant v oltage reg ulators can also furnish a constant current output provided that its output voltag e can be varied down to zero, or at least over the output v oltage range required by the load.

A sharp knee indicates continuous reg ulation through the crossover region while a rounded k nee denotes loss of regulation before the crossov er value is reached.

40 possibility. The circuit insures that the power supply voltage across the load will nev er exceed a preset limit. This protection is valuable because of the extrem e voltage sensitivity of present-day sem iconductor devices.
41 2. The crowbar circuit creates an extra current path during norm al operation of the supply, thus changing the current that flows through the current m onitoring resistor. Diode CR1 keeps this extra current at a fixed level for which com pensation can then be made in the constant current com parator circuit.

The front-panel v oltmeter is internally connected to g uard; and if greater accuracy is needed, a voltmeter can be connected externally .
51 Figure 28. Out put Characterist i cs of CV/ CC Supplies, Conventional vs. Extended Range Example of Extended Range Pow e r Supply Agilent Technologies uses two different desig n techniques in their extended range power supplies.
52 The main secondary winding of the power transformer has three sections, each of w hich has a different turns ratio with respect to the prim ary winding . At the beginning of each half- cycle of the input ac, the control circuit determines w hether one, both, or none of the triacs will be fired.
53 Figure 30. Out put Pow er Plot The triac control circuit also monitors the unreg ulated dc to provide ac line compensation. Variations in the amplitude or frequency of the ac line modify the am plitude of the unregulated dc voltag e which, in turn, alter the position of the IOD1 and I OD2 decision lines.
54 The extended range power supply ov ercomes the latter problem through the use of series reg ulating transistors with higher v oltage ratings and with therm ally im proved heat sinks. The heat sinks allow the series transistors to be properly cooled during the worst case conditions that are encountered during rapid down- programm ing.

61 A utotransformers An autotransformer (or isolation transformer) connected between the ac power source and the power supply input terminals should be rated for at least 200% of the maximum rms current required by the power supply.
62 Figure 34. Im proper Load Connect i ons DC Distribution Terminals A single pair of terminals are designated as the positive and negative "DC Distribution Terminals" (DT's). These two terminals m ay be the power supply output, the B+ at the load, or a separate pair of term inals established expressly for distribution.
63 If rem ote sensing is employ ed, the DT 's should be located as close as possible to the load term inals - sensing leads should then be connected from the power supply sensing terminals to the DT' s (see Figure 36). (See Figure 47 for further details on rem ote sensing.

67 repeat, separating the dc distribution circuits from any conductive paths in common with ground currents will in general reduce or eliminate ground loop problems. Figure 39. Isol ating Gr ound Loop Pat hs from DC System The only way to av oid such common paths is to connect the dc distribution sy stem to ground with only one wire.
68 DC Common One of the DC Distribution Terminals should be designated as the "DC Common Point” (CP). There should be only one DC Com mon Point per DC System . If the supply is to be used as a positive source, then the minus DC Distribution Terminal is the DC Common Point; if it is to be a negative source, then the plus DT is the CP.

72 DC Ground Point The CP should be connected to the GP as shown in Figures 40 through 43 (unless one load is already grounded), making certain there is only one conductive path between these two points.
73 Some idea of how easily even the shortest leads can degrade the perform ance of a power supply at the load terminals can be obtained by comparing the output im pedance of a well-regulated power sup.

Constant Vol t age Regul ator w it h Remot e Error Sensi ng Remote Sensing C onnections Connections between the power supply sensing and output terminals should be removed, and using shielded two-wire cable, the power supply sensing terminals should be connected to the DC Distribution Terminals as shown in Figure 49.

76 To reduce the degree of output overshoot w hich can result from accidentally opened remote sensing connections, many regulated power supplies include internally w ired resistors or small silicon diodes as show n in Figures 50 and 51.
77 If the resistor config uration of Figure 50 is included by the m anufacturer or added by the user, it may be necessary to check that the power rating of this resistor is adequate, particularly for sizable sensing drops.

However, the capacitor m ust be chosen with care if power supply oscillation is to be av oided, since any capacitor resonances or other tendency toward hig h impedance w ithin or near the bandpass of the power supply regulator will reduce loop stability .
79 power supply system - this point must be designated as one of the two DT's for both power supplies. Thus there are exactly (N + 1) DT's in any sy stem, where N is the number of power supp.
80 REMOTE PROGRA MMING Remote prog ramming , a feature found on many Ag ilent power supplies, permits control of the reg ulated output voltag e or current by means of a rem otely varied resistance or v oltage.

84 causing the output v oltage to rise to some v alue higher than the m aximum voltage rating of the supply . With some loads this could result in serious dam age. To protect loads from accidental opening of the remote programming leads, a zener diode should be placed directly across the power supply programming terminals.
85 basis. Programming wi th Variable Voltage Gain Figure 58 illustrates the m ethod by which the power supply can be program med using an external v oltage with a voltag e gain dependent upon the ratio of R P to R R .
86 In situations w here only low program ming v oltages are being used, forward conducting silicon diodes (0.7V per junction) can be used in place of zener diodes.
87 Figure 59. Ideal Remot e Programmi ng Charact eri st i cs As Figure 60 indicates, all power supplies dev i ate somewhat from the ideal. The application of a short-circuit across the program ming term inals results in an output voltage which is slig htly different from zero (ty pically between +20 m illivolts and -50 m illivolts).

When this exponential rise reaches the newly prog rammed voltag e level, the constant voltage amplifier resum es its normal regu lating action and holds the output constant. Thus, the rise time can be determ ined using a universal tim e constant chart or the formula shown in Figure 61.

100 As Figure 69 indicates, it is only necessary to add a single external current m onitoring resistor to a rem ote program ming constant v oltage power supply in order to convert it to constant current operation. (Also any remote sensing protection resistor or diode connected inside the supply from –S to - OUT must be remov ed.
