 introduction Section 1

The range of Modular Power Supplies, PM A 16-20, consists of units

having a fully variable output of to 7V with a choice of current
ratings from 1 to 20A. They have been specifically designed to meet
the requirements of Integrated Circuit Technology with particular
reference to very high reliability and incorporate a new protection
circuit to safeguard both the power supply and the load. This range
offers the Integrated Circuit user a power supply to satisfy most appli-
cations.

The range of Modular Power Supplies, PMA44-56, marks a radical

departure from accepted attitudes in commercial power supply design.

The range provides pre-set output voltages in the range 0-50V in current
ratings of 1, 3, 5, 10A and 20A with very extensive facilities and a high
degree of reliability. Facilities available include the selection of various
output characteristics, such as constant current operation, by means
of internal links, external programming and optional built in thyristor
overvoltage protection.

Particular emphasis has been placed on a high specification, rugged

mechanical construction and long-life components. As a result of this

attention it is possible to quote estimated MTBF figures for each

individual unit.

• 10,000:1 Stability
• Programmeable on Voltage and Current
• MTBF estimated not less than 25,000 hours.

3.10 FOUR-TERMINAL SENSING

Where long external output leads are used, four-terminal sensing is pro-
vided to enable the load voltage regulation of the power supply
to be
maintained at the load connections. The two links between the +ve out-
put and the +ve sense, and the -ve output and the -ve sense terminals
should be removed and connections made as shown in Fig. 0. These i out-
put connections should be run together and a decoupling capacitor,
similar to CI 02 in the power supply, connected at the load terminals
if
the high frequency output impedance is to be maintained. Parallel
con-
nection should be made as shown in Fig. 1 1

The maximum permissible voltage drop in the external leads when using
four-terminal sensing is 0.5V total in both leads i.e. 0.25V in each
lead
+ve and -ve or 0.5V in one supply lead with a ground return
of negligible
resistance. The total permissible length of lead for
0.5 V drop is listed in
Table 1 1 for various wire sizes and current ratings. Note that this is the
total permissible loop length 'go and return' and that the power supply

A simplified functional diagram of the circuitry of the power unit is

(feet and metres) trolled by two independent bridge circuits. Any variation of load current

An auxiliary stabilised power supply is also incorporated. This supplies

ovu the bridge circuits and the comparator amplifiers; to simplify the func-
tional diagram the output connections of the auxiliary supply are not
shown. Overvoltage protection is afforded by a sensing circuit connected
across the stabilised output terminals. The level at which the circuit
operates is conti oiled by the setting of a potentiometer.

4.2 SUPPLY RECTIFICATION AND SMOOTHING

The AC input voltage within the range 100V-125V and 200V-250V,
48Hz to 450Hz is applied, via the terminals of TBI, to the primary of
Tl. Interconnection of the primary terminals for different voltage
supplies is given in Section 3.2.

The transformer has two secondary windings. The output voltage derived
from one winding is used for the auxiliary supply. This AC voltage is
full-wave rectifiedby Dl and D2 and smoothed by Rl and CI. The
output voltage of the other winding connected as per Section 3.6 is
applied to the bridge rectifier MR 100 and then smoothed by CI 01.
The resultant 'raw' DC is protected by fuse FS2 and then applied to the
series regulator.

Circuit Description Section 4 Circuit Description Section 4

4.3 SERIES REGULATOR 4.6 VOLTAGE CONTROL BRIDGE

The series regulator contains transistor TR 100 and transistor TR101. The essential part of this circuit is redrawn here for clarity. A bridge
(which may consist of several transistors in parallel) arranged in a
circuit is formed such that the bridge is balanced when
Darlington-pair configuration. An increasing positive signal applied to
the base of TR100 decreases the output resistance of the circuit; con-
versely, a decreasing signal increases the output resistance. Each transis-
tor in TR101 has a separate resistor in the emitter circuit to provide
current sharing between transistors. The voltage developed by the flow
of load current through the resistor R101 is connected across a com-
mon potential divider network of resistors R102 and R103 to provide a
voltage signal proportional to the output current which is standardised
at 0.85V for 100% output current.

4.4BRIDGE REFERENCE SOURCES

Two zener diodes D6 and D9 are used as the reference sources in the
current and voltage bridges respectively.The current supply to D9 is
further stabilised by zener diodes D7 and D8. The current through D9
is held constant and accurately determined by D7, D8, R13, R14,
R15
and the action of the auxiliary stabiliser circuit.

4.5 AUXILIARY STABILISER

This is effectively a constant current generator feeding the amplifiers
and the reference sources. TR1 compares the voltage drop across the
current sensing resistor R2 with that across the zener diode D3. Any
difference in voltages is amplified by TR1 and fed to TR2 the action of

the circuit being such that the voltage across and hence the current
through R2 is held constant.

the output voltage of IC1 is decreasing because of the increased load
current; however D4 is still cut off.

At the crossover point D4 is just starting to conduct thus transferring

the control from IC2 to IC1 and cutting off D5.

4.10 OVERVOLTAGE PROTECTION

The overvoltage protection circuit uses a long-tail pair
comparator circuit
containing transistors TR50 and TR51. The input to the base of TR51
is derived from R55 which with R54 forms a potential divider across the
stabilised output supply. TR51 base voltage is compared with the base
voltage of TR50 derived from the potentiometer RV50 connected across
a Zener diode reference source D50. The level at which overvoltage
protection is required is effected by the setting of RV50; because this
level is obviously above the stabilised output voltage, the normal quiescent
condition of the long-tail pair is such that TR50 is conducting much more
than TR51. In practice, the overvoltage limit approximately 10%
is set
above the level of the stabilised voltage. If the stabilised output voltage
rises above the level set by the SET OUTPUT VOLTS control transistor

5.4 MEAN TIME BETWEEN FAILURES

The figures quoted below are estimated from data currently
available
from international sources. These estimates are based on continuous
operation at maximum temperature, output voltage and current and
will improve appreciably if units are operated in less arduous conditions.
An indication of the possible improvement can be obtained from the
accompanying graphs.
