DESCRIPTION
GENERAL
1-3. The H-Lab Model 6433ADC Power Supply (fig. 1-1) i s a completely solid- state, compact, well-regulated, constant voltage/constant current d c power supply suitable for either bench or relay rack operation. A three-wire five-foot power cord is provided. The output is continuously variable between 0 and 32vdc, and be- tween
0
and 10 amperes. Detailed specifications are given in table
1-1
.
1-4. OVERLOAD PROTECTION
1-5.
A
crossover feature protects both power supply and load in constant voltage operation. Automatic crossover circuitry switches the power supply from constant voltage t o constant current operation i f the output current exceeds a preset limit.
This crossover circuitry a l s o protects t h e load from overvoltage during constant current operation by automatically switching the power supply into constant voltage operation. The user c a n adjust the crossover point via the front panel controls
(para. 3 -8 and 3-9)
.
1-6.
The power supply is protected from reverse voltage (positive voltage applied t o negative terminal) by a diode that shunts current across the output terminals when this condition e x i s t s . The a c input is fused.
A double-pole on/off switch opens both power leads in the off position.
1-7. COOLING
1-8. Convection cooling is used. No fan is required. The power supply has no moving parts (except meter movement).
1-9. MONITORING
1-10.
Two front-panel meters are provided for monitoring output voltage and current.
The voltmeter has a 0 to
40
volt range and the ammeter has a
0
t o 12 ampere range.
Each meter has a 2% accuracy a t full s c a l e .
1-1 1. OUTPUT TERMINALS
1-12.
Output power is available via a terminal strip on the rear panel. The rear panel terminal strip a l s o enables the power supply t o be connected for different modes of operation (para. 3-3). The output terminals gre isolated from t h e c h a s s i s
and either t h e positive or t h e negative terminal may be connected t o the c h a s s i s via a separate ground terminal located adjacent t o the output terminals. The power supply is insulated t o permit operation up t o
3 0 0 vdc off ground.

OPERATION
3-4. GENERAL
3-5. The power supply is designed s o that i t s mode of operation c a n be selected by making strapping connections between particular terminals on the terminal strip a t t h e rear of the power supply. The terminal designations a r e stenciled in white on the power supply and a r e adjacent t o their respective terminals. The strapping patterns illustrated in this section show neither terminal grounded. The operator c a n ground either terminal or operate the power supply up t o 300 vdc off ground
(floating)
.
3 - 6 .
NORMAL
3-7.
GENERAL. The power supply is normally shipped with its rear terminal strapping connections arranged for constant voltage/constant current, local sens- ing, local programming, single unit mode of operation. This strapping pattern is illustrated in figure 3-2. The operator selects either a constant voltage or a constant current output using the front panel controls (local'programming, no strap- ping changes a r e n e c e ssary)
.
3 - 8 .
CONSTANT VOLTAGE. To select a constant voltage output, proceed a s follows
: a . Turn-on power supply and adjust VOLTAGE controls for desired output voltage (output terminals open). b. Short output terminals and adjust CURRENT controls for maximum output current allowable (current limit), a s determined by load conditions. If a load change c a u s e s t h e current limit t o be exceeded, the power supply w i l l automatically cross- over t o constant current output a t t h e preset current limit and t h e output voltage will drop proportionately. In setting the current limit, allowance must be made for high peak currents whichocan c a u s e unwanted cross-over (refer t o para. 3-40).

CONSTANT CURRENT. To s e l e c t a constant current output, proceed a s follows : current. a . Short output terminals and adjust CURRENT controls for desired output
b. Open output terminals and adjust VOLTAGE controls for maximum output voltage allowable (voltage limit), a s determined by load conditions. If a load change c a u s e s the voltage limit to be exceeded, the power supply will automatical- ly crossover to constant voltage output a t t h e preset voltage limit and the output current will drop proportionately. In setting the voltage limit, allowance must be made for high peak voltages which can c a u s e unwanted crossover. (Refer t o para. 3 -4 0 .)
3-10. CONNECTING LOAD
3-11.
Two pairs of output terminals are provided on the terminal strip a t the left rear s i d e (facing rear) of the power supply. Either pair of terminals or both may be used. The terminals a r e marked
+ and
-.
A separate ground terminal is located adjacent t o the output terminals. The positive or negative output terminal may be grounded, or neither grounded (floating operation: permitted to 3 0 0 vdc off ground)
.
3-12.
Each load should be connected to t h e power supply output terminals using separate pairs of connecting wires. This will minimize mutual coupling effects power supply. Each pair of connecting wires should be a s short a s possible and twisted or shielded to reduce noise pickup. (If shield is used, connect one end t o power supply ground terminal and leave the other end unconnected.)
3-13. If load considerations require that t h e output power distribution terminals be remotely located from the power supply, then the power supply output terminals should be connected t o the remote distribution terminals via a pair of twisted or shielded wires and each load separately connected t o the rem ote distribution terminals. For t h i s c a s e , remote sensing should be used (para. 3-14).
NOTE
It is recommended that the voltage drop i n the con- necting wires not exceed 2 volts. If a larger drop must be tolerated, please consult a Hewlett-Packard field representative.
3-14. REMOTE SENSING
3-15. Remote sensing is used to ameliorate the degradation of regulation which will occur a t the load when the voltage drop in the connecting wires is appreciable.
The u s e of remote distribution terminals (para. 3- 13) i s a n 'example where remote sensing may be required. Due to the voltage drop i n the load leads, i t may be necessary to slightly increase the current limit in constant voltage operation.
CAUTION
Turn-off power supply before rearranging strap- ping pattern a t the power supply rear terminal strip. If the
- S
terminal is opened while the power supply is on, the output voltage and cur- rent may exceed their maximum ratings and re- sult i n damage t o t h e load. The power supply will not be damaged.
3-16. Proceed a s follows: a . Turn-off power supply and arrange rear terminal strapping pattern a s shown i n figure 3-3. The sensing wires will carry l e s s than 10 ma and need not be a s heavy a s the load wires. It is recommended that sensing and load wires be twisted and shielded. (If shield is used, connect one end to power supply negative terminal and leave the other end unconnected .)
CAUTION
Observe polarity when connecting the sensing leads t o t h e load. b. In order t o maintain low a c output impedance, a capacitor with a mini- mum rating of 20,00Op,fd and 25 vdcw should be connected across the load using short leads. This capacitor must have high-frequency characteristics a s good or better than C17 h a s (see parts l i s t ) . c
.
Turn-on power supply.
3 -1 7. REMOTE PROGRAMMING
3-18. GENERAL. The constant voltage and constant current outputs may be pro- grammed (controlled) from a remote location, The front-panel controls a r e disabled i n t h e following instructions. Changes i n t h e rear terminal strapping arrangement a r e necessary. The wires connecting the programming terminals of t h e power supply t o t h e remote programming device should be twisted or shielded to reduce noise pick-up.
(if shield is used, connect one end t o power supply ground terminal and leave t h e other end unconnected
.)
Remote sensing (para.
3
-
14) may be used simul- taneou s l y with remote programming. However, the strapping patterns shown in figures 3-4, 3-5, and 3-6 employ only local sensing and d o not show the load connections.
CAUTION
Turn-off power supply before rearranging strap- ping pattern a t the power supply rear terminal strip. If the current programming terminals are opened while the power supply is on, t h e out- put current will exceed i t s maximum rating and may result in damage t o t h e load. The power supply will not be damaged. The constant volt- a g e programming terminals have a Zener diode connected internally a c r o s s them to limit t h e programming voltage and thus prevent excessive output voltage.
3-19. CONSTANT VOLTAGE. In t h e constant voltage mode of operation, either a resistance or voltage source c a n b e used for remote programming. For resistance programming, t h e programming coefficient (fixed by the programming current) is
200 ohms per volt (output voltage increases 1 volt for each 200 ohms in s e r i e s with programming terminals). The programming current is adjusted t o within 1% of 5 ma a t t h e factory. If greater programming accuracy is required, change R39 (shunt).
The programming resistance should b e a stable, low noise, low-temperature ( l e s s than 30 ppm per
OC) resistor with a power rating a t l e a s t 10 times i t s actual d i s s i - pation.
3-20.
The output voltage of the power supply s,hould be 0 t 2 0 mv, -100 mv when the programming resistance ing
R 6
is zero ohms. This tolerance can be improved by chang-
.
For further information on improving this tolerance, refer t o paragraph 5 -63 and t o H-Lab Tech Letter
# l .
3-2 1. If t h e resistance programming device is controlled by a switch, make-before- break contacts should be used i n order t o avoid momentary opening of the program- ming terminals, To connect the remote programming resistance, arrange rear terminal strapping pattern a s shown in figure
3-4.
The front-panel VOLTAGE controls a r e disabled when t h e strap between A6 and A7 is removed.
3-22. If a voltage source is used a s the remote programming device, t h e output voltage of t h e power supply will vary in a 1 t o 1 ratio with the programming voltage.
The load on t h e voltage source will not exceed 25 microamperes. To connect the programming voltage, arrange rear terminal strapping pattern a s shown in figure
3-5.
3 -23
.
CONSTANT CURRENT. In constant current operation, resistance program- ming is used. The r e s i s t ~ c e current) is
25ohms per ampere (output current increases 1 ampere for each 2 5 ohms in s e r i e s with programming terminals). The programming current is adjusted t o within approximately 10% of
4
ma a t the factory. If greater,programming accuracy is required, change
R41
(shunt). The programming resistance should b e a stable, low noise, low-temperature ( l e s s than 30 ppm per OC) resistor with a power rating a t l e a s t 10 times its actual dissipation.
3-24. The output current of the power supply should be 0
t
50 ma, -1:OO ma when the programming resistance is zero ohms. This tolerance can be improved by chang-
5-6
7 and t o H-Lab Tech Letter
#l
.
3-25. If the resistance programming device is controlled by a switch, make- before-break contacts should be used t o avoid momentary opening of t h e program- ming terminals. To connect the remote programming resistance, arrange rear termin- a l strapping a s shown in figure 3-6. The front-panel CURRENT controls are disabled when the strap between
A 1
and
A2 is removed.
3
-2 6 .
PARALLEL
3-27. GENERAL. Two or more power supplies can be connected in parallel t o obtain a total output current greater than that available from one power supply.
The total output current is the sum of t h e output currents of the individual power supplies. Each power supply c a n be t urned-on or off separately. Remote sensing
(para. 3
-
14) and programming (para. 3 -17) c a n be used; however, the strapping patterns shown in figures 3-7 and
3 - 8
employ only local sensing and programming.
3-28. NORMAL. The strapping pattern for normal parallel operation of two power supplies is shown in figure 3-7. The output current controls of each power supply c a n be separately s e t . The output voltage controls of one power supply (master) should be s e t t o the desired output voltage; the other power supply (slave) should be s e t for a slightly larger output voltage. The master will a c t a s a constant voltage source; the slave will a c t a s a constant current source, dropping i t s output voltage t o equal t h e master's.
3
-2 9
.
AUTO-PARALLEL. The strapping patterns for auto-parallel operation of two and three power supplies are shown in figures 3-8A and B, respectively. Auto- parallel operation permits equal current sharing under a l l load conditions, and allows complete control of output current from one master power supply. The output current of each slave is approximately equal t o the master's. Because the output current controls of each slave is operative, they should be s e t to maximum to avoid having the s l a v e revert t o constant current operation: this would occur i f the master output current setting exceeded t h e s l a v e ' s .
3-30. SERIES
3 -3 1. GENERAL. Two or more power supplies can be connected in series t o obtain a total output voltage higher than that available from one power supply. The total output voltage is t h e sum of t h e output voltages of t h e individual power supplies.
A single load c a n be connected across t h e series-connected power supplies or a separate load can be connected across each power supply. The power supply h a s a reverse polarity diode connected internally across the output terminals t o protect the power supply against reverse polarity voltage if the load is short-circuited or if one power supply is turned off while i t s s e r i e s partners are on.
3-32. The output current controls of each power supply a r e operative and t h e cur- rent limit is equal t o t h e lowest control setting. If any output current controls a r e s e t t o o low with respect t o t h e total output voltage, the s e r i e s power supplies will automatically crossover t o constant current operation and t h e output voltage will drop. Remote sensing (para. 3-14) and programming (para. 3- 17) c a n b e used; however, t h e strapping patterns shown i n figures 3-9 and 3-10 employ only local sensing and programming.
3-33. NORMAL. The strapping pattern for normal s e r i e s operation of two power supplies is shown i n figure 3-9. The output voltage controls of e a c h power supply must b e adjusted t o obtain t h e t o t a l output voltage.
3 -34. AUTO-SERIES. The strapping patterns for auto-series operation of two and three power supplies a r e shown i n figures 3-10A and B, respectively. Auto-series operation permits c o n t r o l of t h e output voltage of s e v e r a l power supplies ( s l a v e s ) from o n e master power supply. The master must b e the most negative power supply of t h e s e r i e s . To obtain positive and negative voltages, t h e
+ terminal of t h e mas- ter may b e grounded. For a given position of t h e s l a v e output voltage controls, t h e total output voltage is determined by the master output voltage controls. The output voltage controls of a s l a v e determines t h e percentage of t h e total output voltage that t h e s l a v e w i l l contribute. Turn-on and turn-off of t h e s e r i e s is controlled by t h e master.

AUTO-TRACKING

The strapping patterns for auto-tracking operation of two and three power s.,:!eration permits t h e output voltages of two or more power supplies t o b e referenc- ed t o a common buss; o n e of t h e power s u p p l i e s (master) controls t h e magnitude of t h e output voltage of t h e others (slaves) for a given position of t h e s l a v e output voltage controls. The master must be t h e most negative power supply in t h e group.
The output voltage of a s l a v e is a percentage of t h e master output voltage. The output voltage controls of a s l a v e determines t h i s percentage. Turn-on and turn- off of t h e power supplies is controlled by t h e master. Remote sensing (para. 3-14) and programming (para. 3
-
17) c a n be used; however, t h e strapping patterns shown in figure 3 -4 employ only l o c a l sensing and programming.
3-37.
The v a l u e of t h e external r e s i s t o r s shown i n figure 3-11 is determined by dividing t h e voltage difference between t h e master and t h e applicable s l a v e by t h e programming current (nominally 5 ma; refer t o para. 3-19). Finer adjustment of t h e s l a v e output voltage c a n be accomplished using t h e s l a v e output voltage controls.

PULSE LOADING
3-40.
The power supply will automatically c r o s s over from constant voltage t o constant current operation, or the reverse, in respone t o an increase (over the preset l i m i t ) in t h e output current or voltage, respectively. Although the preset limit may be s e t higher than the average output current or voltage, high peak currents or voltages ( a s occur i n pulse loading) may exceed t h e preset limit and c a u s e crossover t o occur. To avoid this unwanted crossover, t h e preset l i m i t must be set for t h e peak requirement and not the average.

1 . OUTPUT CAPACITANCE
3-42.
There are capacitors (internal) a c r o s s t h e output terminals of the power supply. These capacitors help t o supply high-current pulses of short duration during constant voltage operation. Any capacitance added externally will improve the pulse current capability, but will decrease the s a f e t y provided by t h e constant current circuit.
A high-current pulse may damage load components before t h e average output current is large enough t o c a u s e t h e constant current circuit t o operate.
3 - 4 3 .
The effects of the output capacitors during constant current operation a r e a s follows: a . The output impedance of t h e power supply d e c r e a s e s with increasing frequency. b. The r i s e t i m e of t h e output voltage is increased. c.
A large surge current causing a high power dissipation in the load occurs when t h e load impedance is reduced rapidly.
NEGATIVE VOLTAGE LOADING
3 - 4 5 .
A diode is connected a c r o s s t h e output terminals. Under normal operating conditions, t h e diode is reverse biased (anode connected t o negative terminal). If a negative voltage is applied t o t h e output terminals (positive voltage applied t o negative terminal), t h e diode will conduct, shunting current a c r o s s the output ter- minals and limiting the voltage t o t h e forward voltage drop of t h e diode. This diode protects the filter and output electrolytic capacitors.

3 -46. NEGATIVE CURRENT LOADING
3 - 4 7 .
Certain types of loads may c a u s e current t o flow into t h e power supply in the direction opposite t o the output current. If the reverse current exceeds
0
ampere, preloading will be necessary. For example; i f t h e load delivers
1 ampere t o the power supply with the power supply output voltage a t 18 vdc, a resistor equal t o
18 ohms (18v/la) should be connected across the output terminals. Thus, the
18 ohm resistor shunts the reverse current across the power supply. For more information on preloading, refer to paragraph C4 in the H-Lab Application Manual.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

BLOCK DIAGRAM DESCRIPTION (See figure 4-1 .)
4 - 2 .
The main power transformer isolates the a c input from the power supply and reduces i t t o t h e voltage level required. Rectification and filteri,ng produces a smoothed d c output across the e d across the
- and
+ terminals.
A
large capacitor (Co) i s connect-
- and
+ terminals for low a c output impedance and t o help supply large pulse currents. An SCR regulator controls the a c input t o provide good regulation of the d c output. The auxiliary power transformer powers the SCR regulator control circuit and the bias and reference circuit which produces d c bias and reference voltages for the power supply.
4-3. The SCR regulator is controlled by the SCR regulator control circuit which operates i n response to signals developed by the voltage or current input circuit.
A gating circuit a s s u r e s that only one input circuit i s used a t a time.
4-4.
The voltage and current input circuits operate in a similar manner. Each circuit h a s a differential amplifier that amplifies a n error voltage that is proportion- a l t o the difference between
the
actual output and the programmed output. The programmed output is determined by the resistance of t h e programming resistors
(voltage and current controls). Each programming resistor h a s a constant current through i t which is maintained by the bias and reference circuit.
4 - 5 .
The voltage input circuit differential amplifier d e t e c t s the error voltage that is proportional t o the difference between the voltage across i t s programming resistors (R2-R8) and the d c output voltage. The error voltage is amplified and passed through the gating circuit t o the SCR regulator control which triggers the
SCR regulator. The SCR regulator increases or d e c r e a s e s the a c input voltage t o the main power transformer a s required to maintain a constant load voltage that is equal t o t h e programmed voltage. In constant voltage operation, the gating circuit i s biased t o inhibit the input from the current input circuit.
4-6.
The current input circuit differential amplifier d e t e c t s the error voltage that i s proportional t o the difference between t h e voltage across i t s programming resistors (R9-R10) and the voltage a c r o s s current monitoring resistor R23
.
The voltage across R23 is proportional t o t h e load current. The SCR regulator responds t o the amplified error voltage by increasing or decreasing the a c input current t o the main power transformers a s required t o maintain a constant load current. In constant current operation, t h e gating circuit i s biased t o inhibit the input from the voltage input Circuit.
4 - 7 .
To prevent overvoltage and excessive surge current when the power supply is turned-on, the turn-on circuit establishes initial conditions i n t h e gating circuit.
The turn-on circuit is activated by the bias and reference circuit when the power supply is turned-off.
4-8.
A voltmeter is connected across the
- and
+ terminals t o monitor the output voltage. An ammeter is connected across current monitoring resistor R23 t o monitor the output current (proportional t o voltage across R23).

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION (See figure 4-2 a t back of manual.)
4-10. AC INPUT
4-11. The 105-125 vac, 57-63 cps, single phase input is applied t o transformer
T2 and t o t h e s e r i e s combination of transformer T1 and SCR's CR17 and CR18 which are i n parallel opposition. The SCR's a r e used t o regulate t h e d c output by control- ling t h e average value of the a c input to transformer T I . Capacitors C11 and C12 smooth transients t o prevent t h e SCR's from being triggered by a rapidly changing voltage from anode to cathode. Resistor R21 damps oscillations that may occur due t o resonance of C12 and the leakage inductance of T I . The leakage inductance of
T 1 limits the peak input current.
4-12. DC OUTPUT
4-13
.
The output of the secondary of transformer T1 is full-wave rectified by bridge rectifier CR19 through CR22 and filtered by pi-section filter C13, C 1 7, and L1. Resistor R29 damps the parallel resonance of L1 and C17. The d c output is regulated t o a constant value by the SCR's i n t h e a c input line. Capacitor C17 is t h e output capacitor. Diode CR23 is connected across the filtered d c output t o protect t h e power supply from reverse voltage applied t o the output terminals.
Resistor R23 is the current monitoring resistor; t h e full load current flows through it.
Resistors R25 and R27 a r e used t o calibrate the voltmeter and ammeter, respectively.
4-14. VOLTAGE INPUT
4-15
.
GENERAL. The voltage input circuit is basically a differential amplifier
(Ql-Q2) that detects any voltage difference between the programmed output voltage and the actual output voltage. The differential amplifier output voltage varies in proportion t o the power supply output voltage valiation.
4 -16.
Q2 INPUT. Voltage divider R6-R47 maintains a slightly negative b a s e bias t o ensure that t h e output voltage can be programmed to zero. The output of 92 i s emitter-coupled (resistor R4) t o Q1.
4-17. Q1 INPUT. There a r e three inputs t o t h e b a s e of Q1; one determined by the programmed voltage (voltage controls ~ 2 - R 8 ) , the second determined by t h e collect- or voltage of Q1 (negative feedback), and the third is from t h e positive s i d e of the main rectifier. The collector current of Q1 is determined by the difference between i t s b a s e and emitter inputs. This difference i s a n error voltage that is proportion- a l t o t h e difference between t h e programmed output voltage and t h e actual output voltage. The negative feedback from collector t o b a s e (C4, and R17-R18 in parallel) improves the stability of the voltage-regulating feedback loop.
4-18.
The input from t h e positive s i d e of t h e main rectifier (C1 and R1) improves loop stability by making t h e differential amplifier insensitive to output voltage variations of four c p s or greater. Below four c p s t h i s input is negligible. This input is n e c e s s a r y b e c a u s e t h e phase shift of t h e pi-section output filter begins t o become e x c e s s i v e aver four c p s
.
Resistors R1 and R5 a r e arranged s o t h a t t h e four c p s input is isolated from t h e negative feedback input; and s o that n e c e s s a r y impedance l e v e l s a r e obtained looking out from t h e b a s e of Q1. The collector out- put of Q1 is coupled t o t h e gating circuit.
4-19. CLAMPING. In order t o protect t h e differential amplifier, t h e b a s e of Q1 is clamped with respect t o
-S by diodes CR1 and CR2 t o prevent e x c e s s i v e b a s e volt- a g e i n either direction. Diode CR1 clamps t h e b a s e t o approximately -0.7 vdc;
CR2 and t h e base-emitter junction of Q1 clamp t h e b a s e t o approximately +1.4 vdc.
Zener diode VRI clamps t h e programming terminals t o prevent a n e x c e s s i v e error signal t h a t would c a u s e e x c e s s i v e output voltage. This would occur, for example, if t h e programming terminals were opened accidentally. To prevent overshoot when the power supply s w i t c h e s from constant current t o constant voltage, diodes CR9 and CRlO clamp t h e collector of 91. Resistor R30 provides a small bleed current for CR1O
,
4-2 0. CURRENT INPUT
4-2 1. GENERAL. The current input circuit is basically a differential amplifier
(Q8-Q9) that d e t e c t s any current difference between t h e programmed output current
(proportional t o voltage a c r o s s current controls) and the a c t u a l output current (pro- portional t o voltage a c r o s s current monitoring r e s i s t o r R23). The differential amplifier output voltage v a r i e s in proportion t o t h e output current variation.
4-22. Q8-Q9 INPUT. The input t o t h e differential amplifier ( a c r o s s b a s e s of 98-
Q9) is t h e voltage difference a c r o s s current controls R9-R10 and current monitoring r e s i s t o r R23. Because t h e programming current is constant in constant current operation, t h e voltage input t o t h e differential amplifier varies a s t h e load current through R23 (error voltage). Capacitors C6 and C24 and r e s i s t o r R22 provide gain roll-off a t high frequencies. Diode CR26 clamps t h e voltage ( 0 . 7 vdc) a c r o s s t h e emitter-base junction of Q9 and R20.
his
clamping action prevents e x c e s s i v e r e v e r s e b a s e voltage i n Q9 when very large load current is drawn (output terminals shorted). To prevent overshoot when the power supply switches from constant voltage t o constant current opleration, diodes CRlO and CR12 clamp t h e collector of
Q8
4-23. Q8-Q9 OUTPUT. Resistor R13 is t h e collector load for
Q8.
The collector output of
Q8 i s coupled t o t h e gating c i r c u i t . Voltage divider R20-R46 b i a s e s t h e b a s e of Q9 and maintains a slightly negative b a s e b i a s t o ensure t h a t t h e output current c a n b e programmed t o zero. Resistor R44 provides positive feedback t o improve load regulation during constant current operation.
4-24. GATING CIRCUIT
4-25.
Transistor
Q4 draws current from t h e SCR control circuit (capacitor C25).
The magnitude of t h i s current is determined by either t h e voltage or current input circuit. For constant voltage operation, diode CR7 is forward biased t o permit t h e voltage input circuit t o drive
Q4;
diode CR8 is reverse biased t o inhibit t h e input from t h e current input circuit. For constant current operation, t h e reverse occurs.
4-26.
To prevent transients i n the d c output when t h e power supply is turned-on, t h e turn-on of
Q4
i s delayed by capacitor C2 which charges throuqh R12, R15 and
CR5. When C2 charges sufficiently t o reverse b i a s CR5, a l l t h e current through R15 flows t o t h e b a s e of
Q4 t o turn i t on. This b a s e current is controlled by t h e voltage or current input circuits via CR7 or CR8, respectively. For example, during constant voltage operation t h e collector voltage of Q1 (voltage input) forward b i a s e s CR17
(CR8 reverse biased by Q8), t h e current through CR7 will vary a s Q1 collector volt- a g e v a r i e s and thus vary
Q4 b a s e current; therefore, t h e collector current of
Q4 is controlled by t h e voltage input. In a similar manner, t h e current input circuit controls t h e collector current of Q4 during constant current operation.
4-2 7. TURN-ON CIRCUIT
4 -2 8 . Transistor Q3 provides a path for rapidly discharging C2 (in gating circuit) when t h e power supply is turned-off. This a s s u r e s t h a t C2 is discharged if t h e power supply is turned-on shortly after turn-off. The purpose of having C2 d i s - charged e a c h time t h e power supply is turned-on is t o maintain the same time delay i n t h e turn-on of t h e gating circuit (refer t o para. 4-26).
4-29.
SCR REGULATOR CONTROL (See waveshapes on figure 4-2 .)
4-30.
GENERAL. The SCR regulator control is b a s i c a l l y a blocking oscillator (Q7 and T3) that a p p l i e s p u l s e s t o t h e SCR regulator in r e s p o n s e t o error s i g n a l s d e t e c t - ed by t h e voltage or current input circuit. When transistor 9 7 conducts, t h e pulse developed i n winding 1-2 of transformer T3 is coupled t o t h e b a s e of Q7 (positive feedback) and t o t h e SCR regulator (CR17 and C ~ 1 8 ) . Capacitor C27 charges in op- position t o t h e feedback voltage and c u t s off Q7. The charge t i m e of C27 determines the pulse duration in t h e collector of Q7 (approximately 20 microseconds). The 35- vdc bias s u p p l i e s current through R52, CR46, and CR44 t o discharge C2 7 after Q7 s t o p s conducting.
4-3 1. GATE INPUT. Throughout t h e operation of t h e blocking oscillator, capacitor
C25 supplies most of t h e collector current for Q4 in the gating circuit (refer t o para. 4-25). The amount of current pulled from C25 by Q4 is determined by t h e in- put (from t h e voltage or current input circuit) t o t h e gating circuit. A s a result of t h i s current flow from C2
5, t h e voltage a c r o s s C25 i n c r e a s e s negatively with re- s p e c t t o t h e 6.0-vdc b i a s and h a s a waveshape that approximates a linear ramp.
Thus, t h e s l o p e of t h i s ramp is determined by the voltage or current input circuit.
Due t o t h e time d e l a y i n t h e feedback loop, t h e s l o p e of t h e ramp is constant for a half c y c l e of t h e a c input. The voltage on C25 is t h e emitter b i a s (forward b i a s when negative) for Q7 and therefore h e l p s determine the point a t which 9 7 conducts.
4-32. AC INPUT. The a c input t o transformer T2 is stepped-down and full-wave rectified by bridge rectifier CR39 through CR43. The output of t h e bridge rectifier is a negative-going pulsating d c (120 c p s ) . Voltage divider R50-R51 supplies a portion of this pulsating d c through C27 t o t h e b a s e of Q7; thus, t h e b a s e is reverse biased
.
4-33. FIRING.
A
point is reached during each c y c l e of t h e 120-cps pulsating d c
(each half c y c l e of t h e 60-cps a c input) when the reverse bias on t h e b a s e and t h e forward b i a s (capacitor C25) on t h e emitter of Q7 are equal, and therefore 9 7 has zero b i a s . A s t h e ramp voltage a c r o s s C25 g o e s more negative than t h e b a s e volt- age, t h e base-emitter junction of Q7 begins t o become forward biased. When t h e emitter is more negative than the b a s e by approximately
0.5 volts, 9 7 conducts.
The firing point of Q7 i s therefore determined by both t h e d c output error and the line voltage change. Because Q7 saturates when it conducts, t h e collector voltage approximates a rectangular wave with a negative going pulse width of approximately
20 microseconds (determined by C27 and R51). The conduction of 9 7 charges C25 in t h e positive direction (clamped by C ~ 4 9 ) . When Q7 stops conducting, t h e ramp a c r o s s C25 begins again. Kowever, Q7 is held cut-off by the charge on C2 7.
4-34. INITIAL CONDITIONS.
A t t h e beginning of each cycle of the 120-cps pulsat- ing dc, certain initial conditions must be established on capacitors C25 and C27.
When t h e negative-going pulsating d c is a t t h e end of its cycle (C27 negatively charged earlier in t h e cycle by t h e feedback voltage), CR44 and CR45 become forward biased and current flows from t h e 35-vdc b i a s through R52, CR46, and CR44 t o d i s - charge C27 t o approximately zero volts and through R52, CR46, and CR45 to charge
C25 t o approximately 0.7 volts (clamped by CR49). This discharge and charge occurs rapidly, s o that it i s completed before the next cycle begins and Q7 c a n con- duct again. Diode CR47 provides another path for the current through CR44 s o that t h e voltage t o which C27 discharges remains predictable.
A s t h e negative-going pulsating d c increases i n the next cycle, CR44 and CR45 become reverse biased.
4-35. BRIDGE RECTIFIER. At the zero cross-over region of t h e voltage waveform on secondary winding 3-4 of transformer T2, t h e voltage is insufficient t o forward bias t h e rectifiers in t h e bridge. In order t o maintain definition between t h e end of one cycle of t h e rectified output and t h e beginning of t h e next cycle, diode CR41 provides approximately 0.7 volts a t t h e rectified output. The current for CR4 1 is supplied through CR46.
A s t h e voltage a c r o s s t h e secondary winding moves away from t h e zero cross-over region, CR4
1 becomes reverse biased.
4 -36. TRANSIENTS, DECOUPLING AND PROTECTION. Transients in t h e pulsating d c a r e reduced by R56 and C2 8. The b a s e of 9 7 is decoupled by C3
.
The voltage spike in t h e collector of Q7, induced by secondary winding 1-2 of transformer T3 when
Q7 cuts-off, is clamped by CR48. The collector is decoupled by R53 and C26.
4 -3 7. SCR REGULATOR
4-3 8. GENERAL. The SCR regulator (CR17 and CR18) controls the a c input voltage and current t o main power transformer T 1 in response t o the voltage and current error signals. In constant voltage operation, t h e a c input voltage t o T1 is adjusted s o that the output voltage remains constant with changing loads. In constant current operation, t h e a c input current to T1 i s adjusted s o that t h e output current remains constant with changing loads and the output voltage i s allowed t o vary.
4-39. GATING. Each half cycle of the a c input, either CR17 or CR18 is forward biased. The pulse induced i n secondary windings 5-6 and 7-8 of T3 by the SCR control, turns on t h e SCR that i s forward biased when t h e pulse occurs. The other
SCR is not affected by t h e g a t e pulse because it is reverse biased.
A g a t e pulse occurs each half c y c l e of the a c input, unless the output is open. The timing of t h e gate pulse with respect t o t h e a c input is determined by t h e error in the d c out- put via t h e loop action.
4-40. AC INPUT CONTROL. When a n SCR is gated on, it conducts until its anode- to-cathode voltage goes t o approximately zero, Thus, t h e earlier a n SCR i s gated on, the greater the portion of t h e a c input that will be applied t o TI. Because of t h e leakage inductance-of TI, the conduction of a n SCR may extend into t h e next half cycle. The conduction period may be shortened a t high output by the voltage across capacitor C13 through C16 being reflected back into t h e primary. By con- trolling the a c input t o T1 each half cycle, t h e average value of the voltage or current a t the output of bridge rectifier CR19 through CR21 is adjusted s o that d c output voltage or current is maintained constant.
4-4 1. PROTECTION. Diodes CR50 and CR5 1 prevent anode induced reverse gate currents from being fed back to the control circuit. Resistors R54 and R55 limit current i n t h e SCR g a t e s .
4-42. BIAS AND REFERENCE CIRCUIT
4-43. GENERAL. The bias and reference circuit supplies three voltages ( t 3 5 ,
+6.0, and -19.5 vdc) for internal power supply operation, and maintains the pro- gramming currents constant. The t 3 5 vdc i s not regulated. The -19.5 vdc, t 6 . 0 vdc, and the. programming currents a r e regulated.
4-44. t 3 5 AND t 6 . 0 VDC. The output of secondary winding 5-6 of transformer T2 is full-wave rectified by CR30 and CR31. Capacitors C20 and C21 each charge t o t h e peak rectified voltage (voltage doubling). The t 6 . 0 vdc (with respect t o -S) is maintained by diodes CR6 and CR14 and by zener diode VR4. The +35 vdc includes includes t h e t 6 . 0 vdc and t h e voltage across C2
1.
The t 6 . 0 vdc and t h e negative voltage across C20 provide t h e unregulated input t o t h e -19.5 vdc regulator.
4-45. -19.5 VDC. For the -19.5 vdc, transistor 910 i s t h e error detector/ amplifier. Zener diode VR3 and diode CR27 provide a reference voltage a t the emitter of 910. Voltage divider R35-R36 supplies a n error voltage t o t h e b a s e of
Q10 which amplifies and applies it t o t h e base of s e r i e s regulator 911. The base drive of Q11 adjusts the voltage across Q11 a s required t o compensate for the error in t h e -19.5 vdc. Resistor R3 7 s e t s the optimum current through temperature-com- pensated Zener diode
V R 3 .
Resistor R45 improves t h e line regulation. Resistor
R56 reduces power dissipation in 011. Capacitor C22 stabilizes the loop.
4-46.
PROGRAMMING CURRENTS. Each prouramming current is held constant in a similar manner. The voltage across emitter resistors R38 and
R40 is held constant by VR3, CR27, and t h e base-emitter drop of each transistor. Thus, the emitter current in each transistor i s constant and therefore the collector currents are nearly constant. The collector currents of Q5 and
Q6
are the constant voltage and constant current programming currents, respectively. Resistors R39 and R41 are used for trimming. Resistors R42 and R43 a r e collector loads. Diode CR28 clamps t h e collector of
Q5 t o protect against excessive positive voltage (breakdown) which might occur i f the voltage controls a r e reduced t o zero rapidly (positive d c output voltage would appear a t collector).

satisfactory substitute for a differential volt- meter is tb arrange a reference voltage source and null detector a s shown in figure 5-1. The reference voltage source i s adjusted s o that the voltage difference between the supply being measured and the reference voltage will have t h e required resolution for the measurement being made. The voltage difference will be a function of t h e null detector that is used. For measure- ments a t the b a s e of transistor

a null detect- or with input impedance of 10 megohms or great- er is required. Otherwise, satisfactory null detectors are: HP 405AR digital voltmeter, d c voltmeter, HP 419A null detector, a d c coupled oscilloscope utilizing differential input, or a 50 mv meter movement with a 100 division scale.

5-2. Table 5-1 lists t h e type of t e s t equipment, i t s required characteristics, its u s e , and a recommended model for performing t h e instructions given in t h i s section.
Upon receipt of t h e power supply, t h e performance check (para. 5-7) should be made. This check is s u i t a b l e for incoming inspection. Additional specification c h e c k s a r e given i n paragraphs 5-24 through 5-36. If a fault is detected i n t h e power supply while making t h e performance check or during normal operation, pro- c e e d t o t h e troubleshooting procedures (para. 5-39). After troubleshooting and re- pair (para. 5

TROUBLESHOOTING
5-40. GENERAL
5 -4 1. If a fault in the power supply is suspected, remove the covers (para. 5 -38) and visually inspect for broken connections, burned components, etc. If the fault is not detected visually, proceed t o trouble analysis (para.
5-42). If the fault is, detected visually or via trouble analysis, correct it and then d o the performance check (para. 5-7). If a part is replaced, refer to repair and replacement (para 5-50) and t o adjustments and calibrations (para.
5-5 1)
.
5 -42. TROUBLE ANALYSIS
5 -43. GENERAL. Before attempting trouble analysis, a good understanding of the principles of operation should be acquired by reading Section IV of this manual.
Once the principles of operation a r e understood, logical application of this know- ledge i n conjunction with significant waveforms (on figure 4-2) and with normal voltage information (table 5-2) should suffice t o isolate a fault t o a part or small group of parts. As additional aids, t h e following a r e given:
5-45 .) Trouble i n t h i s circuit could show up in many ways because it supplies internal operating voltages for t h e power supply and t h e programming currents. b. Procedures for checking the voltage feedback loop for the two most common troubles: high or low output voltage (para

If voltage indication i s less than 1.0 vdc, CR17 or CR18 may be shorted. e. Using the differential voltmeter, check voltage across test points 33 and
36. If voltage is not
0.8 a0.12 vdc, check T2, CR39 through CR43, R50, and RS 1 . f . Using the differential voltmeter, proceed a s instructed In table 5-4.
5-4 7. LOW OUTPUT VOLTAGE. Proceed a s follows: a . Turn front-panel CURRENT controls fully clockwise (maximum)
. b. Disconnect anode or cathode of diode CR8.
c.
Turn-on power supply (no load connected). d. Turn front-panel VOLTAGE controls clockwise and observe the front- panel voltmeter to s e e if the 32vdc output can be obtained. If i t can, the probable cause of the low output voltage is one or more of the following:
(1) CR8 shorted.
(2)
Q8
shorted.
(5) R40, R43 open. e
.
If the 32vdc output cannot be obtained in step d, reconnect diode CR8 and turn t h e front-panel VOLTAGE controls t o mid-position. f .
Using the oscilloscope, check t h e following:
(1) Waveform across t e s t points 3 1
(positive 1ead)and 33 (waveform on figure 4-2). If peak negative voltage is less than 15 volts,
97,
R53, CR48, C25,
C26, or transformer T3 may be defective.
(2) Ripple waveform across t e s t points 18 (positive lead) and 48 (wave- form shown on figure 4-2)
.
If waveform is correct (except for amplitude), proceed t o s t e p (3). If wavefom is incorrect, proceed a s follows:
(a) If the ripple waveform is half-wave (60 cps) instead of full-wave
(120 cps), either SCR (CR17 or CR18) may be open or t h e applicable gate circuit for t h e SCR may be defective. To check the g a t e circuit, disconnect R54 or R55 ( a s applicable) and make a n ohmmeter check from the open end of the resistor t o t e s t point ACC or 45 ( a s applicable). If the resistance is greater than 55 ohms, t h e gate circuit is defective
.
(b) If the ripple waveform indicates that neither SCR h a s fired, CR17 or CR18 may be shorted.
(c) If there or
T 1 may be defective. is no ripple waveform, both CR17 and CR18 may be open g. Using t h e differential voltmeter, proceed as instructed i n table 5-5.
5-48. COMMON TROUBLES. Table 5-6 gives t h e symptoms, checks, and probable c a u s e s for common troubles. The checks should be made using a 115-volt, 60-cps, single-phase power input and the t e s t equipment listed in table 5-1.
5 -49. REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT
5-50. Before servicing etched circuit boards, refer to figure 5-7. After replacing a semiconductor device, refer t o table 5-7 for checks and adjustments that may be necessary. If a check indicates a trouble, refer t o paragraph 5-39. If a n adjust- ment is necessary, refer t o paragraph 5-51.
S E R V I C I N G ETCHED CIRCUIT B O A R D S
Excessive heat o r pressure can lift the copper s t r i p from the board. Avoid damage by using a low power soldering iron (50 watts maximum) and following these instructions. Copper that lifts off the board should be cemented in place with a quick drying acetate base cement having good electrical insulating properties.
A break in the copper should be repaired by soldering a short length of tinned copper wire a c r o s s the break.
Use only high quality rosin c o r e solder when repairing etched circuit boards. NEVER USE PASTE FLUX.
After soldering, clean off any excess flux and coat the repaired a r e a with a high quality electrical varnish o r lacquer.
When replacing components with multiple mounting pins such a s tube sockets, electrolytic capacitors, and potentiometers, it will be necessary to lift each pin slightly, working around the components several times until i t is free.
WARNING: If the specific instructions outlined in the steps below regarding etched circuit boards without eyelets a r e not followed, extensive damage to the etched circuit board will result.
1. Apply heat sparingly to lead of component to be replaced. If lead of component passes through an eyelet in the circuit board, apply heat on com- ponent side of board. If lead of component does
- ductor side of board.
2. Reheat solder in vacant eyelet and quickly in- s e r t a small awl to clean inside ofhole. If hole does not have an eyelet, insert awl o r a
#57 drill from conductor side of board.
