Description

The power supply controllers and the master power supply board need themselves a power supply. To drive the output power supply transistors a specific power supply is used, this increases the rejection of the output loads and their mutual interactions.

LPS Power Supply

Positive Power Supplies

Positive Rectifier Board
The positive rectifier board needs a power supply for the AOP that measure the output currents. These AOP need a +24V and a -5V supply to ensure that the output can vary between 0 and +5V (while the inputs can reach 10/15V).
Positive Power Supply Controller
The controller contains an ATMega8 controller, several AOP and a voltage reference. The AOPs need a +9V and -5V supplies as their outputs need only be in the 0..+5V range. The voltage reference generates a +5.000V from the +9V. The board must also drive the two relays which are in the rectifier board. The relays are driven by +5V and -5V (dV = 10V).
Positive Voltage Regulator
The voltage regulator drives the output power transistors using several AOPs. The AOPs must be capable of having an output in the range 0..+20V. For this they need a +24V and a -5V supply.

Negative Power Supplies

Negative Rectifier Board
The negative rectifier board is similar to the positive rectifier board but the AOPs need a -24V and a +9V supply. The AOPs outputs are in the 0..+5V range and the inputs may be as low as -10/-15V.
Negative Power Supply Controller
This is similar to the positive power supply controller.
Negative Voltage Regulator
The voltage regulator drives the output power transistors using several AOPs. The AOP must have the outputs that vary between 0 and -20V. They need a -24V and a +9V supply.


Master Controller

LPS Master Controller
The master controller contains the ATmega8 controller, drives the LCD panel, a relay and the fans. The relay and fans are connected to the +5V and -5V.

The power supply controllers and the master power supply board need themselves a power supply. A positive power supply controller uses the following supplies:

LPS Power Supply Regulation

To obtain the LPS power supplies we use the toric transformer of the positive power supply. The +24V and -24V are obtained by a voltage multiplier from the 2x9V toric transformers. In theory it can reach 36V so the decoupling capacitor is chosen to support at least 50V.
