•SECTION IGENERAL INFORMATION••1-1 DESCRIPTION1-2 This power supply is completely transistorized<strong>and</strong> suitable for either bench orrelay rack operation. It is a compact, well-regulated.Constant Voltage/ Constant Current supplythat will furnish full rated output voltage at themaximum rated output current or can be conUnuous-1 y adjusted throughout the output range. The frontpanel CURRENT controls can be used to establishthe output current limit (overload or shon circuit)when the supply is used as a constant voltagesource <strong>and</strong> the VOLTAGE control can be uaed toestablish the voltage limit (ce1Ung) when the supplyis used as a constant current source. Thesupply will automatically crossover from constantvoltage to constant current operation <strong>and</strong> Viceversa if the output CUITant or voltage exceeds thesepreset limits.1-3 The power supply has both front <strong>and</strong> rearterminals. Either the positive or negative outputterminal may be qrounded or the power supply canbe operated floating at up to a maximum of 300volts off ground.1-4 A single meter is used to measure either outputvoltage or output current in one of two ranges.The voltage or current ranges are selected by aMETER switch on the front panel.1-S Barrier strip terminals located at the rear ofthe unit allow ease in adapting to the many operationalcapabiUU~s of the power supply. A briefdescription of these capabilities is given below:a. Remote ProgrammingThe power supply may be programmedfrom a remote location by means of an externalvoltage source or resistance.b. Remote SensingThe degradation in regulation whichwould occur at the load because of the voltagedrop in the load leads can be reduced by using thepower supply in the ·remote sensing mode of operation.c. Series <strong>and</strong> Auto-Series Operation<strong>Power</strong> supplies may be used in serieswhen a higher output voltage is required in thevoltage mode of operation or when greater voltagecompliance is required in the constant currentmode of operation. Auto-Series operation permitsone knob control of the total output voltage from a"master" supply.d. Parallel <strong>and</strong> Auto-Parallel QperationThe power supply may be operated inparallel with a similar unit when greater outputcurrent capability is required. Auto-Parallel operationpermits one knob control of the total outputcurrent from a "master" supply.e. Auto-Track1n9The power supply may be used as a"master" supply. havin9 control over one (ormore) "slave" supplies that furnish variousvoltages for a system.1-6 SPECifJCATIONS·1-7 Detailed specifications for the power supplyare given in Table 1-1.i-s omoNS1-9 Options are factory modifications of ast<strong>and</strong>ard instrument that are requested by thecustomer.

Although the crossover region is notusually an area of continuous operation, this problemcan be eliminated, if necessary, by connectingthe emitter of Q300 to +S (instead of to the emitterof Q301) <strong>and</strong> readjusting R307.

The value of this resistor isdependant on the maximum voltage rating of the"master" supply. The value of Rx is this voltagedivided by the voltage programming current of theslave supply (l/Kp where Kp is the voltage programmingcoefficient).

The outputCURRENT controls of each power supply can beseparately set. The output voltage controls of onepower supply should be set to the desired outputvoltage: the other power supply should be set fora slightly larger output voltage. The supply set tothe lower output voltage will act as a constantvoltage source: the supply set to the higher outputwill act as a constant current source, dropping itsoutput voltage until it equals that of the othersupply.

A fraction of the master's outputvoltage is fed to the comparison amplifier of theslave supply, thus controlling the slave's output.The master must have the largest output voltage ofany power supply in the group (must be the mostpositive supply in the·example shown on Figure3-12).

Tum-on <strong>and</strong> tum-off the powersupplies is controlled by the master. Remotesensing <strong>and</strong> programming can be used; although thestrapping patterns for these modes show only localsensing <strong>and</strong> programming. In order to maintain thetemperature coefficient <strong>and</strong> stability specificationsof the power supply, the external resistors shouldbe stable, low noise, low temperature (less than30 ppm per 0 c) resistors.3-45 SPECIAL OPERATING CONSIDERATIONS3-46 PULSE LOADING3-47 The power supply will automatically crossover from constant voltage to constant current operation,or the reverse, in response to an increase(over the preset limit) in the output current or voltage,respectively. Although the preset limit maybe set higher than the average output current orvoltage. high peak currents or voltages (as occurin pulse loading) may exceed the preset limit <strong>and</strong>cause crossover to occur. If this crossover limitingis not desired, set the preset limit for thepeak requirement <strong>and</strong> not the average.3-48 OUTPUT CAPACITANCE3-49 An internal capacitor, connected across theoutput terminals of the power supply, helps to supplyhigh-current pulses of short duration duringconstant voltage operation. Any capacitance addedexternally will improve the pulse current capability,but will decrease the safety provided by the constantcurrent circuit. A high-current pulse maydamage load components before the· average outputcurrent is large enough to cause the constant cur­-rent circuit to operate.3-50 The effects of the output capacitor during •constant current operation are as follows:a. The output impedance of the power supplydecreases with increasing frequency.b. The recovery time of the output voltage islonger for load resistance changes.c. A large surge current causing a high powerdissipation in the load occurs when the load resistanceis reduced rapidly.3-51 REVERSE VOLTAGE LOADING3-52 A diode is connected across the output terminals.Under normal operating conditions, thediode is reverse 'biased (anode connected to negativeterminal). If a reverse voltage is applied tothe output terminals (positive voltage applied tonegative terminal), the diode will conduct, shuntingcurrent across the output terminals an1d limitingthe voltage to the forward voltage drop of thediode. This diode protects the series transistors<strong>and</strong> the output electrolytic capacitor.3-5 3 REVERSE CURRENT LOADING3-54 Active loads connected to the poweir supplymay actually deliver a reverse current to the P°"'tAsupply during a portion of its oper~ting C}'Cle. A19external source cannot be allowed to pump currentinto the supply without loss of regulation <strong>and</strong> possibledamage to the output capacitor. To avoidthese effects, it is necessary to preload the supplywith a dummy load resistor so that thei powersupply delivers current through the entire operatingcycle of the load device.•3-6

•••4-S The feedback signals that control the conductionof the series regulator are originated withinthe constant voltage input circuit or the constantcurrent input circuit. The output voltage ofthe power supply is sampled by the constant voltageinput circuit by means of the sensing terminals{:S). The voltage developed across the currentsampling resistor is the input to the constantcurrent input circuit. This voltage drop varies indirect proportion to the output current. Anychanges ·in output voltage/current are detected inthe constant voltage/constant current input circuit,amplified by the gating <strong>and</strong> error amplifiers,<strong>and</strong> applied to the series regulator in the correctphase <strong>and</strong> amplitude to counteract the changes.4-6 The fault input circuit detects the presenceof overvoltage or overcurrent conditic:>ns <strong>and</strong> generatesthe necessary tum-down signals to theSCR control circuit or the series regulator circuit.In the case of an overvoltage condition, a tumdownsignal is applied to the SCR control circuit.The series regulator receives a turn-down signalvia the gating circuit if an overcurrent conditionis detected.4-7 The reference circuit provides stable referencevoltages which are used by the constantvoltage/current input circuits for comparison pur•poses. The bias supply furnishes voltages whichare used throughout the instrument for biasingpurposes. The meter circuit provides an indicationof output voltage or current in one of tworanges.4-8 SIMPLIFIED SCHEMATIC4-9 A simplified schematic of the power supplyis shown in Figure 4-2. It shows the operatingcontrols; the ON-off pushbutton, the voltage programmingcontrols (R813 <strong>and</strong> R814) <strong>and</strong> the currentprogramming controls (R809 <strong>and</strong> R810). TheMETER switch, i-ncluded in the meter circuit blockon Figure 4-2, allows the meter to read outputvoltage or current in one of two ranges. Figure4-2 also shows the internal sources of bias <strong>and</strong>reference voltages <strong>and</strong> their nominal magnitudeswith an input of 115 Vac <strong>and</strong> no load connected.Diode CR809, connected across the output terminalsof the power supply, is a protective devicewhich prevents internal damage that might occur ifa reverse voltage were applied across the outputterminals. Output capacitor, C809 stabilizes thefeedback loop when the normal strapping patternshown in Figure 4-2 is employed. Note that thiscapacitor can be removed if an increas~ in theprogramming speed is desired. Under these conditions,capacitor C802 serves to insure loopstability.

Resistors Rl02<strong>and</strong> Rl 08 are used to zero bias the input stage.offsetting minor base to emitter voltage differencesin QlOO. The base of QlOOB is connectedto a summing point (A4) at the junction of the programmingresistors <strong>and</strong> the current pullout resistorRSOS. Instantaneous changes in the output(due to load variations) or changes due to themanipulation of RBl 3, result in an increase ordecrease in the summing point potential. 01008is then made to conduct more or less, in accordancewith summing point voltage change. Thechange in QlOOB's conduction also varies theconduction of Ql OOA due to the coupling effects ofthe common emitter resistor, RIOS. The "errornvoltage is taken from the collector of QlOOA <strong>and</strong>ultimately varies the conduction of the seriesregulator.4-25 Resistor Rl04, in series with the base ofQlOOB. limits the current through the programmingresistors during rapid voltage tum-down. DiodesCRlOO <strong>and</strong> CRlOl form a limiting network whichprevents excessive voltage excursions from overdriVing stage QlOOB. Capacitor C801, shunting-i.2Vthe programming resistors, increase the highfrequency gain of the input amplifier. ResistorR806, shunting the pullout resistor, serve1s as atrimming adjustment for the programming current ••Diode CR102 establishes the proper collector biafor QlOOA while R103 <strong>and</strong> ClOO proVide low frequencyequalization for the feedback loop.4-26 CONSTANT CURRENT INPUT CIRCUI'I' (SeeFigure 4-7)4-27 This circuit is similar in appearance <strong>and</strong>operation to the constant voltage input circ:uit. Itconsists of the coarse <strong>and</strong> fine current pr01;rammingresistors (R809 <strong>and</strong> RS! O), <strong>and</strong> a difforentialamplifier stage (Q200 <strong>and</strong> associated components).Like transistor QlOO in the voltage input ciircuit,Q200 consists of two transistors, having matchedcharacteristics, that are housed in a singl1~ package.4-28 The constant current input circuit continuouslycompares a fixed reference voltage with thevoltage drop across the current sampling re:sistor.If a difference exists, the differential amplifierproduces an "error" voltage which is propo1rtionalto this difference. The remaining components inthe feedback loop (amplifiers <strong>and</strong> series re·;ulator)function to maintain the drop across the cu:rrentsampling resistor, <strong>and</strong> consequently the outputcurrent, at a constant value.-r..zv•?OGATING--~-..... ---+--...ClllCUIT1801P11U.OVTRESISTORltl08CIOS-L2VR827RIOOAFigure 4-7.

•••4-29 Stage Q200A is connected to +S through impedanceequalizing resistor R203. Instantaneouschanges in output current on the positive line arefelt at the current summing point (terminal A7) <strong>and</strong>,hence, the base of Q200B. Stage Q200B varies itsconduction in accordance with the polarity of thechange at the summing point. The error voltage istaken from the collector Q200B <strong>and</strong> ultimatelyvaries the conduction of the series regulator.4-30 Resistor R304, in conjunction with C300,helps stabilize the feedback loop. Resistor R808,shunting the pullout resistor, serves as a trimmingadjustment for the programming current flowingthrough R809 <strong>and</strong> R810.4-31 GATING CIRCUIT4-32 The gating circuit (see schematic) consistsof gating amplifiers Q301 <strong>and</strong> Q300 <strong>and</strong> associatedOR-gate diodes, CRJOO <strong>and</strong> CR301. The gatingcircuit provides sharp crossover between constantvoltage <strong>and</strong> constant current operation. Duringsteady state conditions, one transistor is saturatedwhile the other is conducting in its linearregion. The cathodes of the OR-gate diodes arealways at a more positive potential than the satuationpotential of 0300 or Q301. Thus, the diodeassociated with the saturated transistor is reversebiased while the diode associated with the othertransistor is forward biased. In the constant voltagemode Q301 is operating in its linear region<strong>and</strong> Q300 is saturated due to the positive collectorvoltage of Q200B. OR-gate diode CR301 is thereforereverse biased while OR-gate diode CR300 isforward biased, coupling the constant voltagefeedback si9nal to the error amplifier. Oppositeconditions prevail during constant current operation.4-33 Capacitor C302 is a commutating capacitorwhich improves the transient response of the unit.Resistor R300 is the biasing resistor for the ORgatediodes.4-34 ERROR AMPLIFIERS4-35 The error amplifiers Q302 <strong>and</strong> QJOJ, amplifythe feedback. si9nal from the constant voltageor constant current input circuit to a level sufficientto drive the series regulator transistor.Transistor Q303 serves as the driver <strong>and</strong> Q302 thepredriver. for the series regulator. The RC network,composed of C301 <strong>and</strong> R307, is an equalizingnetwork which provides for high frequency rolloffin the loop gain response in order to stabilizethe feedback loop .4-36 Capacitor C900, diode CR901, <strong>and</strong> resistorR902 form a long time constant network whichachieves a slow tum-on characteristic. When theunit is first turned on, C900 provides a positivevoltage to the base of Q302 keeping the seriesregulator from conducting initially. As C900charges up, the restrictive bias becomes lesspositive enabling the regulator to conduct. DiodeCR902 provides a low resistance discharge pathfor C900 when the unit is turned off.4-37 FAULT INPUT CIRCUIT4-38 The fault input circuit (see schematic atrear) protects the power supply against overvoltage<strong>and</strong> overcurrent conditions. Transistor 0800,<strong>and</strong> associated components, comprise the overvoltagedetector. With normal output voltagesQSOO is cut off due to the +15.4V reference voltageconnected to the top of voltage divider R823 <strong>and</strong>R821. If the output voltage exceeds a certainlimit (about 20% above the maximum rated outputvoltage) transistor QSOO is driven into conduction.Current is then conducted away from the summingpoint <strong>and</strong> in opposition to the charge path of C700in the SCR control circuit. As a result, the SCR' sare fired at a later time, reducing the series regulatorinput voltage to a safe value.4-39 A full wave rectified voltage, obtained fromthe SCR control circuit, excercises a stabilizinginfluence on transistor QBOO. This signal tendsto synchronize the conduction of QBOO at a 120 Hzrate preventing r<strong>and</strong>om firing of the SCR' s.4-40 Transistors Q801 <strong>and</strong> Q802 provide overcurrent<strong>and</strong> short circuit protection for the unit.Overcurrent protection is accomplished by Q802which is activated only 1f the constant currentinput circuit should fall. Q802 monitors the voltagedrop across the current sampling resistor <strong>and</strong>conducts if this drop exceeds a certain level.The output of Q802 is fed to gating amplifier QJOlvia R815 <strong>and</strong> ultimately reduces the conduction ofthe series regulator.4-41 Short circuit protection is provided by transistorsQ801 <strong>and</strong> Q802. Transistor Q801, normallybiased below cutoff, monitors the voltage dropacross the series regulator. Under short circuitconditions, the ·increased voltage across the regulatordrives Q801 into saturation. The positivegoing emitter voltage of Q801 also drives Q802into conduction. The output of Q802 limits thecurrent flow through the series regulator to a prescribedleve 1.4-7


4-42 REFERENCE CIRCUIT (See Schematic at Rear)4-43 The reference circuit is a feedback powersupply similar to the main supply. It providesstable reference voltages which are used throughoutthe unit. The reference voltages are allderived from smoothed de obtained from the fullwave rectifier (CR600 <strong>and</strong> CR601) <strong>and</strong> filter capacitorC600. The +9.4 <strong>and</strong> -6.2 voltages are developedacross temperature compensated Zener diodesVR600 <strong>and</strong> VR60l. Resistor R611 limits the currentthrough the Zener diodes to establish an optimumbias level.4-44 The regulating circuit consists of seriesregulating transistor Q600, error ammplifier Q601,<strong>and</strong> differential amplifier Q602 <strong>and</strong> Q603. Thevoltage across the Zener reference diode VR600<strong>and</strong> the voltage at the junction of divider R605 <strong>and</strong>R606 are compared, <strong>and</strong> any differences are de-tected by Q602 <strong>and</strong> Q603. The error voltage isamplified <strong>and</strong> inverted by Q601 <strong>and</strong> appli.ed toseries requlator Q600 in the correct phase <strong>and</strong>amplitude to maintain the +15.4 volt output con.stant.4-45 Zener diode VR601 provides an add:ltionalbias voltage of -6.2 volts. Resistor R60l, connectedacross Q600, minimiZes power di:;sipationin the series element. Output capacitor C602stabilizes the reference regulator loop.4-46 METER CIRCUIT4-47 The meter circuit (see Figure 4-8) providescontinuous indications of output voltage •lr currenton a single multiple range meter. The metercan be used either as a voltmeter or an ammeterdepending upon the position of METER switch S2on the front panel of the supply.

••also selects one of two meter ranges on eachscale. The metering circuit consists basically ofa selection circuit (switch S2 <strong>and</strong> associatedvoltage dividers), a stable differential amplifierstaqe (QBSlA <strong>and</strong> Q8518), two meter amplifiers(Q852 <strong>and</strong> Q853), <strong>and</strong> the meter movement.4-48 The selection circuit determines whichvoltage divider is connected to the differentia 1amplifier inpu~. When S2 ls in one of the voltagepositions, the voltage across divider RBSO, RBSl.<strong>and</strong> R852 (connected across the output of the supply)is the input to the differential amplifier.When 52 is in one of the current positions, thevoltage across divider R853, R854, <strong>and</strong> RSSS (connectedacross the sampling resistor) is the inputto the differential amplifier. With S2 in the highervoltage range (position 2) the voltage drop acrossR852 is applied to stage Q851A while stageQ851B is grounded tothe +s terminal. For low outputvoltages, S2 can be set to position (1) resultingin the application of a larger percentage of theoutput voltage (drop across RSS l <strong>and</strong> RBS 2) tostage Q851A. With 52 in the higher current position(3) the voltaqe drop across R853 is appliedto stage Q851B while stage Q851A is grounded tothe +S terminal. In the low current range, thevoltage drop across R853 <strong>and</strong> R854 is applied toQ851B.4-49 Differential amplifier stage Q851 is astable device having a fixed gain of ten. Tominimize temperature effects, the two stages arehoused in a single package that is similar tothose used in the constant voltage <strong>and</strong> current inputcircuits. The outputs of the differential amplifierdrive meter amplifiers Q852 <strong>and</strong> Q853which, in turn, deflect the meter. TransistorQ850 provides a constant bias current to the emittersof Q852 <strong>and</strong> Q853. Potentiometer R870 permitselectrical zeroing of the meter.4-50 The meter circuit contains an inherent currentlimiting feature which ~rotects the metermovement against overloads. For example, lfME1'~R switch 52 is placed in the low currentrange when the power supply is actually deliveringa higher ampere output, the differential amplifiersare quickly driven into saturation, limitingthe current through the meter to a safe value .•4-9

Ifa fault is detected in the power supply while makingthe performance check or during normal operation.proceed to the troubleshooting procedures (ParagraphS-41). After troubleshooting <strong>and</strong> repair (ParagraphS-46), perform any necessary adjustments<strong>and</strong> calibrations (Paragraph 5-48).

Before attempting to trouble shootthis instrument, ensure that the fault is with theinstrument <strong>and</strong> not with an associated circuit.The performance test (Paragraph 5-10) enables thisto be determined without having to remove the instrumentfrom the cabinet.5-29 Once it is determined that the power supplyis at fault, check for obvious troubles such asopen fuse, a defective power cable, or an inputpower failure. Next, remove the top <strong>and</strong> bottomcovers (each held by four retaining screws) <strong>and</strong>inspect for open connections, charred components,etc. If the trouble source cannot be detected byvisual inspection, follow the detailed procedureoutlined in succeeding paragraphs. Once the defectivecomponent has been located (by means ofvisual inspection or trouble analysis) correct it<strong>and</strong> re-conduct the performance test.

APPENDIX AOption 11, OVervoltaqe Protection "Crowbarn•D~CRIPTION:This option is installed in <strong>DC</strong> <strong>Power</strong> Supplies, 6282A, 6285A, 6286A, 6290A, 6291A, <strong>and</strong> <strong>6296A</strong>,<strong>and</strong> tested at the factory. It consists of a printed circuit board, screwdriver-type front panelpotentiometer, <strong>and</strong> six wires that are soldered to the main power supply board.The crowbar monitors the output voltaqe of the power supply <strong>and</strong> fires an SCR that effectivelyshorts the output when it exceeds the preset trip voltage. The trip voltage is determined by thesetting of the CROWBAR ADJUST control on the front panel. The trip voltage range is as follows:<strong>Model</strong> 6282A 6285A 6286A 6290A 6291A <strong>6296A</strong>Trip Voltage Range l-13V 2-22v 2-22V 5·42V S-42V 6-66VTo prevent transients from falsely tripping the crowbar, the trip voltage must be set higher thanthe power supply output voltage by the following margin: 7% of the output voltage +lV. Themargin represents the minimum crowbar trip setting for a given output voltage: the trip voltagecan always be set higher than this margin.•OPERATION:1. Tum the CROWBAR ADJUST fully clockwise to set the trip voltage to maximum.2. Set the power supply VOLTAGE control for the desired crowbar trip voltage. To prevent falsecrowbar tripping, the trip voltage should exceed the desired output voltage by the followingamount: 7% of the output voltage +lV.3. Slowly turn the CROWBAR ADJUST ccw until the crowbar trips, output goes to OV or a smallpositive voltage.4. The crowbar will remain activated <strong>and</strong> the output shorted until the supply is turned off. Toreset the crowbar, tum the ·supply off, then on ••MPB-5A-1
