SAFETY SUMMARY

The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation, service and repair of this

instrument. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety

standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of the instrument. Agilent Technologies, Inc. assumes no liability for the

customer's failure to comply with these requirements.

BEFORE APPLYING POWER.

Verify that the product is set to match the available line voltage and the correct fuse is installed.

GROUND THE INSTRUMENT.

This product is a Safety Class 1 instrument (provided with a protective earth terminal). To minimize shock hazard, the instrument chassis

and cabinet must be connected to an electrical ground. The instrument must be connected to the ac power supply mains through a three-

conductor power cable, with the third wire firmly connected to an electrical ground (safety ground) at the power outlet. For instruments

designed to be hard wired to the ac power lines (supply mains), connect the protective earth terminal to a protective conductor before any

other connection is made. Any interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor or disconnection of the protective earth terminal will

cause a potential shock hazard that could result in personal injury. If the instrument is to be energized via an external autotransformer for

voltage reduction, be certain that the autotransformer common terminal is connected to the neutral (earth pole) of the ac power lines

(supply mains).

INPUT POWER MUST BE SWITCH CONNECTED.

For instruments without a built-in line switch, the input power lines must contain a switch or another adequate means for disconnecting

the instrument from the ac power lines (supply mains).

DO NOT OPERATE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE.

Do not operate the instrument in the presence of flammable gases or fumes.

KEEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUITS.

Operating personnel must not remove instrument covers. Component replacement and internal adjustments must be made by qualified

service personnel. Do not replace components with power cable connected. Under certain conditions, dangerous voltages may exist even

with the power cable removed. To avoid injuries, always disconnect power, discharge circuits and remove external voltage sources before

touching components.

DO NOT SERVICE OR ADJUST ALONE.

Do not attempt internal service or adjustment unless another person, capable of rendering first aid and resuscitation, is present.

DO NOT EXCEED INPUT RATINGS.

This instrument may be equipped with a line filter to reduce electromagnetic interference and must be connected to a properly grounded

receptacle to minimize electric shock hazard. Operation at the line voltage or frequencies in excess of those stated on the data plate may

cause leakage currents in excess of 5.0mA peak.

Calibration and Verification

Introduction

This section provides test and calibration procedures. The operation-verification tests comprise a short procedure to verify

that the unit is performing properly, without testing all specified parameters. After troubleshooting and repair of a defective

power supply you can usually verify proper operation with the turn-on checkout procedure in the Operating Manual.

Repairs to the A1 main board and the A2 control board can involve circuits which, although functional, may prevent the

unit from performing within specified limits. So, after A1 or A2 board repair, decide if recalibration and operation

verification tests are needed according to the faults you discover. Use the calibration procedure both to check repairs and

for regular maintenance.

When verifying the performance of this instrument as described in this chapter, check only those specifications for which a

performance test procedure is included.

Test Equipment Required

Table 2-1 lists the equipment required to perform the tests of this section. You can separately identify the equipment for

performance tests, calibration and troubleshooting using the USE column of the table.

Operation Verification Tests

To assure that the unit is performing properly, without testing all specified parameters, first perform the turn-on checkout

procedure in the Operating Manual. Then perform the following performance tests, in this section.

CV Load Effect

CC Load Effect

Calibration Procedure

Calibrate the unit twice per year and when required during repair. The following calibration procedures which follow

should be performed in the sequence given. Table 2-2 describes in detail these calibration procedures and lists the expected

results to which each adjustment must be made.

Note: Some of the calibration procedures for this instrument can be performed independently, and some

procedures must be performed together and/or in a prescribed order. If a procedure contains no references

to other procedures, you may assume that it can be performed independently.

To return a serviced unit to specifications as quickly as possible with minimal calibration, the technician

need only perform calibration procedures that affect the repaired circuit. Table 2-3 lists various power

supply circuits with calibration procedures that should be performed after those circuits are serviced.

Initial Setup

Maintenance described herein is performed with power supplied to the instrument, and protective covers

removed. Such maintenance should be performed only by service trained

personnel who are aware of the hazards involved (for example, fire and electrical shock).

Turn off ac power when making or removing connections to the power supply. Where

maintenance can be performed without power applied, the power should be

removed.

a. Unplug the line cable and remove the top cover by removing three screws; the rear handle screw and the two top-rear

corner screws. Do not remove the front handle screw as the retaining nut will fall into the unit.

b. Slide the cover to the rear.

c. Plug a control board test connector A2P3 onto the A2J3 card-edge fingers.

d. Turn OVERVOLTAGE ADJUST control A3R59 fully clockwise.

e. Disconnect all loads from output terminals.

f. Connect power supply for local sensing, and ensure that MODE switches are set as shown below.

g. Reconnect the line cable and turn on ac power.

h. Allow unit to warm up for 30 minutes.

i. When attaching the DVM, the minus lead of the DVM should be connected to the first node listed, and the plus lead

should be connected to the second node listed.

j. At the beginning of each calibration procedure, the power supply should be in its power-off state, with no external

circuitry connected except as instructed.

k. The POWER LIMIT adjustment (A2R25) must be adjusted at least coarsely before many of the calibration procedures

can be performed. If you have no reason to suspect that the Power Limit circuit is out of adjustment, and you do not

intend to recalibrate it, do not disturb its setting. Otherwise, center A2R25 before you begin to calibrate the power

supply.

l. To disable the power supply, short INHIBIT line A2J3 pin 8 to COMMON A2J3 pin 4.

given in the Operating Manual for connecting the load.

Electronic Load. The test and calibration procedures use an electronic load to test the unit quickly and accurately. If an

electronic load is not available, you may substitute a 2Ω 250W load resistor for the electronic load in these tests:

CV Source Effect (Line Regulation)

CC Load Effect (Load Regulation)

You may substitute a 0.25Ω 250W load resistor in these tests:

CV Load Effect (Load Regulation)

CV PARD (Ripple and Noise)

CC Source Effect (Line Regulation)

CC PARD (Ripple and Noise)

15

The substitution of the load resistor requires adding a load switch to open and short the load in the CC or CV load

regulation tests. The load transient recovery time test procedure cannot be performed using load resistors.

An electronic load is considerably easier to use than a load resistor. It eliminates the need for connecting resistors or

rheostats in parallel to handle the power, it is much more stable than a carbon-pile load, and it makes easy work of

switching between load conditions as is required for the load regulation and load transient-response tests.

Current-Monitoring Resistor Rm. To eliminate output current measurement error caused by voltage drops in the leads

and connections, connect the current-monitoring resistor between -OUT and the load as a four-terminal device. Figure 2-2

shows correct connections. Select a resistor with stable characteristics: 0.001, 1% accuracy, 30 ppm/°C or lower

temperature coefficient and 20W power rating (20 times actual power if other than 0.001Ω is used).

Figure 2-2. Current-Monitoring Resistor Setup

Constant Voltage (CV) Tests

CV Setup. If more than one meter or a meter and an oscilloscope are used, connect each to the + S and - S terminals by a

separate pair of leads to avoid mutual coupling effects. Connect only to + S and -S (except for peak-to-peak PARD)

because the unit regulates the output voltage between + S and - S, not between + OUT and - OUT. Use coaxial cable or

shielded 2-wire cable to avoid pickup on test leads. For all CV tests set the output current at full output to assure CV

operation.

Load Effect (Load Regulation). Constant-voltage load effect is the change in dc output voltage (Eo) resulting from a

load-resistance change from open-circuit to full-load. Full-load is the resistance which draws the maximum rated output

current at voltage Eo. Proceed as follows:

a. Connect the test equipment as shown in Figure 2-3. Operate the load in constant resistance mode (Amps/Volt) and set

resistance to maximum.

b. Turn the unit's power on, and turn up current setting to full output.

c. Turn up output voltage to:

7.0Vdc (6023A)

20.0Vdc (6028A)

as read on the digital voltmeter.

d. Reduce the resistance of the load to draw an output current of:

29Adc (6023A)

10Adc (6028A)

Check that the unit's CV LED remains lighted.

e. Record the output voltage at the digital voltmeter.

f. Open-circuit the load.

g. When the reading settles, record the output voltage again. Check that the two recorded readings differ no more than:

± 0.0027Vdc (6023A)

± 0.0090Vdc (6028A)

Source Effect (Line Regulation). Source effect is the change in dc output voltage resulting from a change in ac input

voltage from the minimum to the maximum value as specified in Input Power Requirements in the Specifications Table, in

the Operating Manual. Proceed as follows:

a. Connect the test equipment as shown in Figure 2-3. Operate the load in constant resistance mode (Amps/Volt) and set

resistance to maximum.

b. Connect the unit to the ac power line through a variable autotransformer which is set for low line voltage (104Vac for

120Vac).

c. Turn the unit's power on, and turn up current setting to full output.

d. Turn up output voltage to:

20.0Vdc (6023A)

60Vdc (6028A)

as read on the digital voltmeter.

10Adc (0.010Vdc across Rm) (6023A)

3.3Adc(0.33Vdc across Rm) (6028A)

Check that the unit's CV LED remains lighted.

17

f. Record the output voltage at the digital voltmeter.

g. Adjust autotransformer to the maximum for your line voltage.

h. When the reading settles record the output voltage again. Check that the two recorded readings differ no more than:

± 0.0030Vdc (6023A)

± 0.0080Vdc (6028A)

PARD (Ripple And Noise). Periodic and random deviations (PARD) in the unit's output-ripple and noise-combine to

produce a residual ac voltage superimposed on the dc output voltage. Constant-voltage PARD is specified as the

root-mean-square (rms) or peak-to-peak (pp) output voltage in a frequency range of 20Hz to 20MHz.

RMS Measurement Procedure. Figure 2-4 shows the interconnections of equipment to measure PARD in Vrms. To

ensure that there is no voltage difference between the voltmeter's case and the unit's case, connect both to the same ac

power outlet or check that the two ac power outlets used have the same earth-ground connection.

Use the common-mode choke as shown to reduce ground-loop currents from interfering with measurement. Reduce noise

pickup on the test leads by using 50Ω coaxial cable, and wind it five turns through the magnetic core to form the

common-mode choke. Proceed as follows:

a. Connect the test equipment as shown in Figure 2-4. Operate the load in constant resistance mode (Amps/Volt) and set

resistance to maximum.

b. Turn the unit's power on, and turn up current setting to full output.

c. Turn up output voltage to:

7Vdc (6023A)

20Vdc (6028A)

3.0mV rms (6023A)

3.0mV rms (6028A)

Figure 2-4. RMS Measurement Test Setup, CV PARD Test

equipment grounding and power connection instructions of PARD rms test apply to this setup also. Connect the

oscilloscope to the + OUT and - OUT terminals through 0.01µF blocking capacitors to protect the oscilloscope's input from

18

the unit's output voltage. To reduce common-mode noise pickup, set up the oscilloscope for a differential, two-channel

voltage measurement. To reduce normal-mode noise pickup, use twisted, 1 meter or shorter, 50Ω coaxial cables with

shields connected to the oscilloscope case and to each other at the other ends. Proceed as follows:

a. Connect the test equipment as shown in Figure 2-5. Operate the load in constant resistance mode (Amps/Volt) and set

resistance to maximum.

Load Transient Recovery Time. Specified for CV operation only; load transient recovery time is the time for the output

voltage to return to within a specified band around its set voltage following a step change in load.

Proceed as follows:

a. Connect the test equipment as shown in Figure 2-3. Operate the load in constant-current mode and set for minimum

current.

b. Turn the unit's power on, and turn up current setting to full output.

c. Turn up output voltage to:

6.70Vdc (6023A)

f. Adjust the oscilloscope to display transients as in Figure 2-7.

g. Check that the pulse width of the transient pulse is no more than:

50mV (6023A)

75mV (6028A)

Temperature Coefficient. (6023A) Temperature coefficient (TC) is the change in output voltage for each °C change in

ambient temperature with constant ac line voltage, constant output voltage setting and constant load resistance. Measure

temperature coefficient by placing the unit in an oven, varying the temperature over a range within the unit's operating

temperature range, and measuring the change in output voltage. Use a large, forced air oven for even temperature distribution.

Leave the unit at each temperature measurement for half hour to ensure stability in the measured variable. Measure the output

voltage with a stable DVM located outside the oven so voltmeter drift does not affect the measurement accuracy. To measure

offset TC, repeat the procedure with output voltage set to 0.10Vdc.

Proceed as follows:

a. Connect DVM between +S and -S.

b. Place power supply in oven, and set temperature to 30°C.

c. Turn the unit's power on and turn up current setting to full output.

d. Turn up output voltage to 20Vdc as read on the DVM.

e. After 30 minutes stabilization record the temperature to the nearest 0.1°C. Record the output voltage at the DVM.

f. Set oven temperature to 50°C.

g. After 30 minutes stabilization, record the temperature to the nearest 0.1°C. Record output voltage.

h. Check that the magnitude of the output voltage change is no greater than 32mV.

Drift (Stability) (6023A). Drift is the change in output voltage beginning after a 30-minute warm-up during 8 hours operation

with constant ac input line voltage, constant load resistance and constant ambient temperature. Use a DVM and record the

output at intervals, or use a strip-chart recorder to provide a continuous record. Check that the DVM's or recorder's specified

drift during the 8 hours will be no more than 0.001%. Place the unit in a location with constant air temperature preferably a

large forced-air oven set to 30°C and verify that the ambient temperature does not change by monitoring with a thermometer

near the unit. Typically the drift during 30 minute warm-up exceeds the drift during the 8-hour test. To measure offset drift,

repeat the procedure with output voltage set to 0.10Vdc.

a. Connect DVM between + S and - S.

b. Turn the unit's power on and turn up current setting to full output.

c. Turn up output voltage to 20Vdc as read on the digital voltmeter.

d. After a 30 minute warmup, note reading on DVM.

e. The output voltage should not deviate more than 5mV from the reading obtained in step d over a period of 8 hours.

21

Constant Current (CC) Tests

CC Setup. Constant-current tests are analogous to constant-voltage tests, with the unit's output short circuited and the

voltage set to full output to assure CC operation. Follow the general setup instructions.

Load Effect (Load Regulation). Constant current load effect is the change in dc output current (Io) resulting from a

load-resistance change from short-circuit to full-load, or full-load to short-circuit. Full-load is the resistance which develops

the maximum rated output voltage at current Io. Proceed as follows:

a. Connect the test equipment as shown in Figure 2-3. Operate the load in constant resistance mode (Amps/Volt) and set

resistance to minimum.

b. Turn the unit's power on, and turn up voltage setting to full output.

c. Turn up output current to:

10.0Adc (0.010Vdc across Rm) (6023A). Check that the AMPS display reads about 10 amps.

3.3Adc (0.335Vdc across Rm) (6028A) Check that the AMPS display reads about 3.3 amps.

d. Increase the load resistance until the output voltage at +S and -S increases to:

20Vdc (6023A).

60Vdc (6028A).

Check that the CC LED is lighted and AMPS display still reads ≈ current setting.

e. Record voltage across Rm.

f. Short circuit the load.

g. When the reading settles (≈ 10s), record the voltage across Rm again. Check that the two recorded readings differ no

more than:

± 0.010mVdc (6023A)

± 0.0053mVdc (6028A)

h. Disconnect the short across the load.

Source Effect (Line Regulation). Constant current source effect is the change in dc output current resulting from a

change in ac input voltage from the minimum to the maximum values listed in the Specifications Table in the Operating

Manual. Proceed as follows:

a. Connect the test equipment as shown in Figure 2-3. Operate the load in constant resistance mode (Amps/Volt) and set

resistance to minimum.

b. Connect the unit to the ac power line through a variable autotransformer set for low line voltage (e.g. 104Vac for

120Vac).

c. Switch the unit's power on and turn up output voltage setting to full output.

d. Turn up output current to:

29.0Adc (0.029Vdc across Rm) (6023A)

10.0Adc (1.0Vdc across Rm) (6028A)

Check that the AMPS display reads ≈ current setting.

e. Increase the load resistance until the output voltage between + S and - S increases to:

7.0Vdc (603A)

20.0Vdc (6028A)

Check that the CC LED is still on and the AMPS display still reads ≈ current setting.

f. Record the voltage across Rm.

g. Adjust autotransformer to the maximum for your line voltage.

h. When the reading settles record the voltage across Rm again. Check that the two recorded readings differ no more than:

± 0.0090mVdc (6023A)

± 0.030mVdc (6028A)

PARD Ripple And Noise. Periodic and random deviations (PARD) in the unit's output (ripple and noise) combine to

produce a residual ac current as well as an ac voltage super-imposed on the dc output. The ac voltage is measured as

constant-voltage PARD. Constant-current PARD is specified as the root-mean-square (rms) output current in a frequency

range 20Hz to 20MHz with the unit in CC operation. To avoid incorrect measurements, with the unit in CC operation,

caused by the impedance of the electronic load at noise frequencies, use a:

22

0.25Ω (6023A)

2.0Ω (6028A)

load resistor that is capable of safely dissipating 250 watts. Proceed as follows:

a. Connect the test equipment as shown in Figure 2-8.

b. Switch the unit's power on and turn the output voltage all the way up.

c. Turn up output current to:

29.0Vdc (6023A)

10Vdc (6028A)

Check that the unit's CC LED remains lighted.

d. Check that the rms noise current measured by the current probe and rms voltmeter is no more than:

15mA rms (6023A).

5mA rms (6028A)

Troubleshooting

Maintenance described herein is performed with power supplied to the instrument, and protective covers

removed. Such maintenance should be performed only by service-trained personnel who are aware of the

hazards involved (for example, fire and electrical shock). Where maintenance can be performed without

power applied, the power should be removed.

Introduction

Before attempting to troubleshoot this instrument, ensure that the fault is with the instrument itself and not with an

associated circuit. The performance test enables this to be determined without having to remove the covers from the supply.

The most important aspect of troubleshooting is the formulation of a logical approach to locating the source of trouble. A

good understanding of the principles of operation is particularly helpful, and it is recommended that Chapter 4 of this

manual be reviewed before attempting to troubleshoot the unit. Often the user will then be able to isolate a problem simply

by using the operating controls and indicators. Once the principles of operation are understood, refer to the following

paragraphs.

Table 2-1 lists the test equipment for troubleshooting. Chapter 6 contains schematic diagrams and information concerning

the voltage levels and waveforms at many of the important test points. Most of the test points used for troubleshooting the

supply are located on the control board test "fingers", which are accessible close to the top of the board. See Table 3-1.

If a component is found to be defective, replace it and re-conduct the performance test. When a component is replaced,

refer to Calibration Procedure (Chapter 2). It may be necessary to perform one or more of the adjustment procedures after a

component is replaced.

Initial Troubleshooting Procedures

If a problem occurs, follow the steps below in sequence:

a. Check that input power is available, and check the power cord and rear-panel circuit breaker.

b. Check that the settings of mode switch A2S1 are correct for the desired mode of operation. (See Operating Manual).

c. Check that all connections to the power supply are secure and that circuits between the supply and external devices are

not interrupted.

d. If the power supply fails turn-on self-test or gives any other indication of malfunction, remove the unit from the

operating system before proceeding with further testing.

Some circuits on the power mesh are connected directly to the ac power line. Exercise extreme caution

when working on energized circuits. Energize the supply through an isolation transformer to avoid

shorting ac energized circuits through the test instrument's input leads. The isolation transformer must

have a power rating of at least 1KVA. During work on energized circuits, the safest practice is to

disconnect power, make or change the test connections, and then re-apply power.

Make certain that the supply's ground terminal (┴) is securely connected to an earth ground before applying

power. Failure to do so will cause a potential shock hazard that could result in personal injury.

Electrostatic Protection

The following caution outlines important precautions which should be observed when working with static sensitive

components in the power supply.

This instrument uses components which can be damaged by static charge. Most semiconductors can

suffer serious performance degradation as a result of static charges, even though complete failure may

not occur. The following precautions should be observed when handling static-sensitive devices.

a. Always turn power off before removing or installing printed-circuit boards.

b. Always stored or transport static-sensitive devices (all semiconductors and thin-film devices) in conductive material.

Attach warning labels to the container or bag enclosing the device.

c. Handle static-sensitive devices only at static-free work stations. These work stations should include special conductive

work surfaces (such as Agilent Part No. 9300-0797) grounded through a one-megohm resistor. Note that metal table

tops and highly conductive carbon-impregnated plastic surfaces are too conductive; they can act as large capacitors and

shunt charges too quickly. The work surfaces should have distributed resistance of between 106and 10l2 Ω per square.

d. Ground all conductive equipment or devices that may come in contact with static-sensitive devices or subassemblies

containing same.

e. Where direct grounding of objects in the work area is impractical, a static neutralizer should be used (ionized air

blower directed at work). Note that this method is considerably less effective than direct grounding and provides less

protection for static-sensitive devices.

f. While working with equipment on which no point exceeds 500 volts, use a conductive wrist strap in contact with skin.

The wrist strap should be connected to ground through a one-megohm resistor. A wrist strap with insulated cord and

built-in resistor is recommended, such as 3M Co. No. 1066 (Agilent Part No. 9300-0969 (small) and 9300-0970

[large]).

Do not wear a conductive wrist strap when working with potentials in excess of 500 volts; the one-megohm

resistor will provide insufficient current limiting for personal safety.

g. All grounding (device being repaired, test equipment, soldering iron, work surface, wrist strap, etc.) should be done to

the same point.

h. Do not wear nylon clothing. Keep clothing of any kind from coming within 12 inches of static-sensitive devices.

i. Low-impedance test equipment (signal generators, logic pulsers, etc.) should be connected to static-sensitive inputs

only while the components are powered.

j. Use a mildly activated rosin core solder (such as Alpha Metal Reliacor No. 1, Agilent Part No. 8090-0098) for repair.

The flux residue of this type of solder can be left on the printed circuit board. Generally, it is safer not to clean the

printed-circuit board after repair. Do not use Freon or other types of spray cleaners. If necessary, the printed-circuit

board can be brushed using a natural-bristle brush only. Do not use nylon-bristle or other synthetic-bristle brushes. Do

not use high-velocity air blowers (unless ionized).

k. Keep the work area free of non-conductive objects such as Styrofoam-type cups, polystyrene foam, polyethylene bags,

and plastic wrappers. Non-conductive devices that are necessary in the area can be kept from building up a static

charge by spraying them with an anti-static chemical (Agilent Part No. 8500-3397).

l. Do not allow long hair to come in contact with static-sensitive assemblies.

m. Do not exceed the maximum rated voltages specified for the device.

Repair and Replacement

Repair and replacement of most components in the power supply require only standard techniques that should be apparent

to the technician. The following paragraphs provide instructions for removing certain assemblies and components for which

the procedure may not be obvious upon inspection.

26

To avoid the possibility of personal injury, remove the power supply from operation before opening the

cabinet. Turn off ac power and disconnect the line cord, load, and remote sense leads before attempting

any repair or replacement.

When replacing any heatsink-mounted components except thermostat, smear a thin coating of heatsink

compound between the component and heatsink. If a mica insulator is used, smear a thin coating of

heatsink compound on both sides of the mica insulator.

Do not use any heatsink compound containing silicone, which can migrate and foul electrical contacts

elsewhere in the system. An organic zinc oxide cream, such as American Oil and Supply Company

Heatsink Compound #100, is recommended.

Most of thc attaching hardware in this unit is metric. The only non-metric (sometimes called English or

inch) fittings are listed below. Be careful when both types of screws are removed not to get them

mixed up.

a. Lock-link/shelf-mounting blocks (4 on rear panel, one at each corner).

b. Rear-panel fuse holder.

c. Rear-panel ground binding post.

d. Strap-handle screws (2).

e. Screws that secure side chassis to front-frame casting (8, 4 on each side).

f. Screws that secure front-panel to front-frame casting (4, 2 on top and 2 on bottom).

Top Outside Cover Removal. Remove three screws, the rear handle screw (Phillips, 10x32) and two top-rear corner

screws (Pozidriv, M4x.7) using a Size 1, Pozidriv screwdriver. A Phillips head screwdriver does not fully seat into

Pozidriv screws and risks stripping the heads. Do not remove the front handle screw, as the retaining nut will fall into the

unit. Remove the top cover by sliding it to the rear and lifting at the front.

Bottom Cover Removal. Remove only for repair of main board. Remove two bottom-rear corner screws. (Pozidriv,

M4x.7) and remove the bottom cover by sliding it to the rear. You do not need to remove the unit's feet.

Inside Top Cover Removal. The unit includes an inside cover which secures the vertical board assemblies. Remove the

inside cover for repair but not for calibration. Remove the six mounting screws (Pozidriv, M4x.7) – three on each side and

five board fastening screws (Pozidriv, M4x.7) all on top. Remove the inside cover by lifting at the front edge.

When installing the inside cover, insert it first at the right side. While holding it tilted up at the left, reach through the

cutouts in the cover and fit the top tabs of the A2 control board into the mating slots in the cover. With the top cover in

place reach through the cutout above the A4 power mesh board, align the board-fastening screw holes, and replace the rear-

most screw to secure the A4 board. Press the inside cover down firmly while tightening screws that secure cover to chassis.

Complete the installation by replacing the remaining ten screws. Be careful when replacing printed-circuit assemblies and

covers not to bend any boards or components.

A2 Control Board Removal

After removing the inside cover, remove the A2 board by lifting first at the front edge and than pulling it up and out of the

unit. Two connectors hold the A2 board at its bottom edge.

When installing the A2 board, insert it first at the rear of the unit. While holding it tilted up at the front, fit the A2TB1

terminal strip into the mating cutout in the rear panel. Then lower the A2 board's bottom connectors into the mating

connectors on the main board. Press the A2 board into the connectors.

27

A4 Power Mesh Board Removal

After removing the inside cover, remove the A4 power mesh board by lifting, using the large aluminum heatsink as a

handle. Two connectors hold the A4 board at its bottom edge.

When installing the A4 power mesh board, lower it vertically into its connectors and press in place.

A3 Front-Panel Board Removal

Remove the A3 front-panel board by first removing the entire front-panel assembly. You do not need to remove the top

cover. Follow this procedure:

a. Remove the top plastic insert by prying up with a flat-blade screwdriver, and remove the front feet by lifting the tabs

and sliding toward the front of the unit.

b. Remove the four front-panel assembly mounting screws (Phillips 8-32) on the top and bottom at the corners using a

Pozidriv or Phillips head screwdriver (Phillips head screwdriver may be used only with these four screws).

c. Gently pull the front-panel assembly away from the unit as far as permitted by the connecting cables.

d. Remove the ground-wire screw (Pozidriv, M4x.7) holding the green-yellow ground wire.

e. Note the locations of the four power-wire connections to the power switch and then unplug the quick-connect plugs.

f. Unplug the W3 3-wire cable from connector A1J3 on the A1 main board.

g. Remove the A3 board from the front-panel assembly by removing the five mounting screws (Pozidriv, M4x.7)

Install the A3 Board by reversing the steps above. The power wires are correctly connected to the power switch wires if

they do not cross each other.

A1 Main Board Removal

Removing the A1 main board requires removing the rear panel, all boards except the A3 front-panel board, and 17 A1

board mounting screws. Component-access cutouts in the bottom inside cover allow unsoldering most A1-board

components for repair without removing the A1 board.

To remove the A1 board, proceed as follows:

a. Remove the A2 and A4 boards according to the above instructions.

b. Detach the rear panel by removing the four mounting screws (Pozidriv, M4x.7) two on each side. Gently pull the rear

panel away from the unit as far as permitted by the four wires connected to the A1 board.

c. Unplug the W1 ribbon cable from connector A1J1.

d. Remove the A1 board by removing the 17 mounting screws (Pozdriv, M4x.7).

e. Note locations and the unplug the two ac power wires and the two fan wires to the A1 board.

Overall Troubleshooting Procedure

Perform the troubleshooting and repair procedures which follow only if you are trained in equipment

service and are aware of the danger from fire and electrical-shock hazards. Some of the procedures include

removing the unit's protective covers which may expose you to potentially lethal electrical shock.

Whenever possible, make test connections and perform service with the power removed.

After performing the Initial Troubleshooting Procedures, focus on developing a logical approach to locating the source of

the trouble. The underlying strategy for the troubleshooting procedures here is to guide you to the faulty circuit nodes

which have improper signals or voltages. It relies on you to identify the particular functional circuit to troubleshoot from

symptom tables and by understanding how the unit works. It then relies on you to discover the defective component or

components which cause the faulty circuit nodes. So, read the BLOCK DIAGRAM overview in Chapter 4 and read the

functional circuit descriptions for the circuits that you suspect may be defective. Then return to this section for help finding

the faulty circuit nodes.

Table 3-1 gives the signals for each of the test points on the control board test connector. This connector is provided in

service kit P/N 06033-60005. The measurements given here include bias and reference voltages as well as power supply

status signals and waveform information.

Table 3-2 provides troubleshooting information based on the status of the PWM-ON and PWM-OFF signals which drive

the PFETs. This table is used for no-output failures.

Tables 3-3 and 3-4 give measurements for the test points on the A3 front-panel board and possible failure symptoms

respectively.

Table 3-5 describes possible symptoms for overall performance failures of the power supply. It is necessary to have a

properly working front-panel before using this table.

Chapter 6 contains schematic diagrams and voltage levels, and component location diagrams to help you locate components

and test points.

Make most voltage measurements (except DC-to-DC Converter and ac mains-connected circuits) referenced to the unit's

output common which is accessible at rear-panel terminal VM. All voltages are ± 5% unless a range is given.

Using the Tables

Typically there will be two types of power supply failures; no-output and performance failures.

1. No-OUTPUT FAILURE: Start with the TROUBLESHOOTING NO-OUTPUT FAILURES section which references

Tables 3-1 and 3-3.

2. PERFORMANCE FAILURE: If the power supply produces an output but does not perform to specifications, begin by

verifying the measurements at the A2J7 test connector using Table 3-1. Next, verify the front-panel by doing the

procedure outlined in the FRONT-PANEL TROUBLESHOOTING section. After the front-panel has been verified

consult Table 3-5 for the performance failure symptom which seems closest to the one observed and proceed to the

functional circuit given for that failure.

The circuits referenced in Tables 3-2 and 3-5 are derived from functional blocks of circuits in the power supply. These

blocks are given in the Power Supply Blocks section starting on page 35. Troubleshooting information for each block will

include a brief description of the circuit involved. The columns provided in each block are as follows:

NODE: This column lists the nodes where the measurements should be taken. In some cases this will be

stated as NODE ( + ) and NODE (- ) where the first is the test node and the second is the

reference.

SETUP: If a certain setup is required for the measurement, it will be given in this column.

MEASUREMENT: This column indicates what the expected measurement is for the given node.

SOURCE: If applicable, the components which generate the signal will be provided in this column .

Some blocks will have Input and Output sections. The input section will have a source column to indicate which

components generated the measured signal. The output section will list all the important output signals from that block.

However, because the outputs of one block are the inputs to another, the schematic should be consulted if an output

measurement is incorrect. This will indicate the next circuit block to be trouble shot.

Main Troubleshooting Setup

Figure 3-1 shows the troubleshooting setup for troubleshooting all of the unit except the front-panel and initial no output

failures (See page 31). The external power supply provides the unit's internal bus voltage. The ac mains cord connects to

the unit's A1T3 bias transformer via an isolation transformer, thereby energizing the bias supplies, but it does not connect to

the input rectifier and filter because that would create the bus voltage. With the external supply the unit operates as a

dc-to-dc converter. The supply biases the A4Q3 and A4Q4 PFETs with a low voltage rather than the 320Vdc bus voltage.

This protects the PFETs from failure from excess power dissipation if the power-limit comparator or the off-pulse circuitry

are defective. It also reduces the possibility of electrical shock to the troubleshooter.

Figure 3-1. Main Troubleshooting Setup

The troubleshooting setup of Figure 3-1 connects high ac mains voltage to the A1F2 fuse, the A1S2 Mains-

Voltage Select Switch, the fan and printed-circuit traces at the left edge of the A1 main board. Be

extremely careful when working on the unit with the protective inside cover removed to avoid touching the

ac mains voltage.

30

As a convenience in implementing the troubleshooting setup, prepare cord sets as shown in Figure 3-2. This facilitates

connecting the unit's input power receptacle to the external supply and connecting the bias transformer to the ac mains.

Figure 3-2. Modified Mains Cord Set For Troubleshooting

With the mains cord unplugged proceed as follows:

a. Remove the top cover and the inside cover as described on page 26. Set switch S4 (front-left corner of the A1 main

board) in TEST position.

If switch is not in the TEST position and remains in the NORM position, completion of step e below will

allow the unit to develop its 320Vdc bus voltage across PFETs A3Q3 and A3Q4 and will connect the ac

mains voltage to the output of the external power supply. This will probably damage the external supply

and is a shock hazard to you.

b. Install control board test connector onto the A2J3 card edge fingers.

c. Connect a 50Ω, 10W, load resistor to the unit's output terminals.

31

d. With the LINE switch off, connect an external dc supply to the outside prongs of the unit’s power receptacle. Ignore

polarity as the unit’s input rectifying diodes steer the dc power to the correct nodes.

e. Complete the setup of Figure 3-1 by attaching an ac mains cord to test points TP1 (L, black wire) and TP2 (N, white

wire) and connect the green ground wire to the unit's case ground terminal or a suitably grounded cabinet screw. TP1

and TP2 are accessible through the cutout on the left side of the unit and are at the left edge of the A1 main board.

Troubleshooting No-Output Failures

No-output failures often include failure of the A4Q3 and A4Q4 PFETs and their fuses, A4F1 and A4F2. When either the

off-pulses or the power-limit comparator fails, the PFETs can fail from excessive power dissipation. The strategy for

localizing no-output failures is to check the voltages and waveforms at the control board test connector to predict if that

circuit failure would cause the PFETs to fail. This makes it possible to develop your troubleshooting approach without an

extensive equipment setup. Proceed as follows:

a. With the mains cord unplugged remove the A4 power mesh board as described on page 27. Plug in the mains cord

and switch on power.

b. Using Table 3-1 check the bias voltages, the PWM-OFF, PWM-ON and other signals of interest at the A2 control

board test fingers, A2J3.

c. Check for the presence of program voltages, VP and IP, at the rear panel.

d. Check for presence of the 320Vdc rail voltage between the cathodes of diodes A1CR3 and A1CR4. If there is no rail

voltage, check diodes A1CR1 through A1CR4.

Diodes A1CR1 through A1CR4 connect to the ac mains voltage. Use a voltmeter with both input terminals

floating to measure the rail voltage.

e. Select the functional circuit for troubleshooting based on your measurements and Table 3-2, which provides direction

based on the status of the PWM OFF and PWM ON signals .

Front-Panel Troubleshooting

The A3 front-panel board can be troubleshot by first doing the following setup.

a. Remove the top cover of the unit.

b. Remove the 4 side screws holding the front-panel assembly to the power supply chassis and pull the entire assembly

forward.

c. Disconnect the W1 ribbon cable from connector A1J1 on the A1 main board and remove the ground wire screw

holding the green/yellow ground wire. Unplug the four wires to the LINE switch noting the configuration.

d. Detach the A3 board from the front-panel assembly by removing the five mounting screws.

e. Reconnect the W1 jumper to connector A1J1 and place the A3 board vertically against the supply with a piece of

insulating material between. The test connector can then be attached to the A3 board. The rest of the front-panel

assembly can stand vertically so that the pots and the switches can be accessed while troubleshooting.

f. Attach the external line cord and place switch A1S4 in the TEST position.

The ac mains voltage connects directly to the LINE switch and to components and traces at the front of

the A1 main board. Be extremely careful to avoid touching the ac mains voltage.

Start troubleshooting by performing the tests given in Table 3-3. This table provides the measurements for the test points on

the test connector as well as the source components for that measurement. Switch A1S4 should be in the TEST position for

all measurements except where noted. Table 3-4 gives front-panel symptoms as well as the circuits or components that

may cause the supply to exhibit those symptoms. Both Tables 3-3 and 3-4 should be used to check out and troubleshoot the

front-panel.

A4CR13. The Drain of A4Q4 can be picked up at its case or from the anode of A4CR14.

If all the INPUT measurements are correct but the OUTPUT Vgs waveform (3) is incorrect, the problem may be caused by

weak PFETs. Two 6800pF capacitors (Agilent P/N 0160-0159) can be substituted for the PFETs (G to S) to check

waveform 3. If the waveform is still incorrect, the problem may be located in the drive components.

The PFETs are static sensitive and can be destroyed by relatively low levels of electrostatic voltage.

Handle the A4 power mesh board and the PFETs only after you, your work surface and your equipment

are properly grounded with appropriate resistive grounding straps. Avoid touching the PFET's gate and

source pins.

Troubleshooting CV Circuit

V-MON, the output of CV Monitor Amp A2U7, is 1/4 the voltage between + S and - S. CV Error Amp A2U8 compares

V-MON to CV PROGRAM. Innerloop Amp A2U10A stabilizes the CV loop with IVS input from A2U10C. The

measurements below verify that the operational amplifier circuits provide expected positive and negative dc voltage

excursion when the CV loop is open and the power mesh shut down.

Circuits Included. Constant Voltage (CV) Circuit and buffer amplifier A2U10C.

Setup. The Main Troubleshooting Setup, page 29. Apply the ac mains voltage to the bias transformer, and disconnect the

external supply Remove the + S jumper and connect A2J3-2 ( + 15V) to + S. Set MODE switch settings B4, B5 and B6 all

to 0. Set VP to 0Vdc by connecting to P or set VP to + 5Vdc by connecting to A2J3-1 according to SETUP below.

If the failure symptoms include output voltage oscillation, check if the CV Error Amp circuit is at fault by shorting A2U8-6

to A2U8-2. If oscillations stop, the CV Error Amp circuit is probably at fault.

Troubleshooting CC Circuit

I-MON, the output of CC Monitor Amp A2U1, in volts is 1/6 the output current in amperes. CC Error Amp A2U2B

compares I-MON to CC PROGRAM. Differentiator circuit A2U3D and A2U3C stabilizes the CC loop. It differentiates

IVS and has a voltage gain of 16. Its output is summed with CC PROGRAM at CC Error Amp A2U2B.

The measurements below verify that the operational amplifier circuits provide expected positive and negative do voltage

gain when the CC loop is open and the power mesh shut down.

Circuits Included. Constant Current (CC) Circuit on A2 control board.

OUT ( - ) and - OUT ( + ) terminals. Apply the ac mains voltage to the bias transformer. Set the external supply to 3.0Adc

constant current with a voltage limit in the range 5 to 20Vdc.Set IP to 0Vdc by connecting to P or set IP to + 5Vdc by

If the failure symptoms include output current oscillation, check if the differentiator circuit is at fault by removing resistor

A2R16 (3.3M ohm ). If oscillations stop, the differentiator is probably at fault.

Troubleshooting Down Programmer

Principles of Operation

Autoranging Power

Autoranging allows the unit to be compact and light weight and yet to deliver a range of output voltage current

combinations which otherwise would require the use of more than one supply or a higher rated-power supply. Autoranging

is a name for circuitry which automatically makes full power available at all but low rated output voltages and currents. By

comparison, a conventional constant-voltage/constant-current (CV/CC) power supply can provide full output power only at

maximum rated output voltage and current. For example the power available from a 200 watt, 20V, 10A CV/CC supply

adjusted to deliver 10V is only 100 watts.

The power available from the unit when adjusted to 10V is more than 200 watts. The permitted maximum voltage and

current of the unit change as current and voltage are adjusted by the user. Thus the unit can be a 20V, 10A supply; a 10V,

20A supply; a 6.7V 30A supply, or any other supply in the range shown graphically in Figure 4-1.

Figure 4-1. Output Characteristics: Typical CV/CC and Autoranging Power Supplies

Block Diagram Overview

This section is an overview. Using the block diagram, Figure 4-2, it explains how the unit works, how major circuits are

interconnected and what signals are called. The next section, explains more thoroughly how major circuits operate and uses

the simplified schematic, Figure 4-3. Power flows from the ac mains at the left of the block diagram through circuit blocks

connected by heavy lines to the load on the output terminals at the right. The Down Programmer lowers the output voltage

when required by the CV Circuit. Overvoltage Protection senses the output and shuts down the unit by inhibiting the Pulse

Width Modulator (PWM) through the MASTER ENABLE input when an overvoltage is detected. Other protection circuits

(not shown) can also inhibit the PWM through the Inhibit Gate.

44

Figure 4-2. Block Diagram

45

Control signals flow from right to left with separate circuits for constant-voltage, constant-current and power-limit control.

These three control circuits jointly provide the Autoranging characteristic of Figure 4-lB. AC Turn-on Circuits limit inrush

current to the input filter and assure transient free turn-on. Internal Bias Supplies provide five bias and two reference

voltages to the unit's circuits and provide input signals to the AC Turn-on Circuits.

The unit is a flyback switching power supply. The power transformer stores energy in its magnetic field while current flows

in its primary, and energy transfers to the secondary when current flow in the primary turns off. A pair of PFET switches in

series with the primary turns on and off at a 20KHz rate controlling the current flow; and the PWM varies the on-time of

the PFET switches to regulate the output voltage or current.

In CV or CC operation the PWM turns the PFET switches on at each clock pulse and turns them off when the IpRAMP

VOLTAGE exceeds the CP control-port voltage. The IpRAMP VOLTAGE is derived from a sensing transformer in series

with the power transformer primary and is proportional to the primary current. The CP control-port voltage is determined

by the CV Control Circuit when the unit is in constant-voltage operation and is determined by the CC Control Circuit when

in constant-current operation. Follow the block diagram from right to left to see how the output voltage is regulated during

CV mode of operation. The output voltage is monitored both at the output sense terminals + S and--S (OVS outerloop

voltage) and also before the two stages of output filter (IVS innerloop voltage). Sensing with output sense terminals

provides accurate load-voltage control, and sensing before the output filter stabilizes the supply and permits it to power

highly reactive loads.

The CV Monitor Amplifier buffers the OVS outerloop voltage to produce the VMON output monitoring voltage. A buffer

amplifier (not shown) monitors the voltage before the output filter to produce the IVS innerloop voltage. CV Error and

Innerloop Amplifiers compare V-MON and IVS with the CV PROGRAM Voltage which is set by the front-panel

VOLTAGE control or by remote programming to develop the CV CONTROL Voltage. When the CV CONTROL Voltage

is lower than the CC CONTROL Voltage, CV determines CP and regulates the output voltage by controlling the turn-off of

the PWM.

While the PWM turns off when any of the four inputs shown go low, in CV and CC operation it is controlled by the

CONTROL V LIMIT input from the Control Voltage Comparator. When the Ip-RAMP VOLTAGE exceeds CP,

CONTROL V LIMIT goes low and the PWM turns off the PFET switches. The next clock pulse causes the PWM to turn

on the PFET switches, and thus the cycle repeats at a 20KHz rate. Power is transferred through the transformer as required

to produce the output voltage determined by the CV PROGRAM Voltage.

When in CC operation, the output current is regulated in a similar manner. Output current is sensed as the OCS outerloop

voltage across a Current Monitoring resistor. OCS is buffered to produce I-MON. IVS is differentiated to produce an

innerloop current-sensing voltage; and CC Error amplifier compares these to the CC PROGRAM Voltage from the front-

panel CURRENT control or remote programming to develop the CC CONTROL Voltage.

Simplified Schematic

The simplified schematic, Figure 4-3, shows the basic operating circuits of the unit. Detailed descriptions follow for major

circuits and components in clockwise order. The circuit names and layout of the simplified schematic are the same as used

on the complete schematic in Section 7. The heavy lines are the path of power flow through the unit. Please see Figure 4-5

for the display circuits.

Primary power comes to the Input Rectifier through a resistor which limits turn-on inrush current to the input filter. Jumper

A1W1 connects the Input Rectifier and Filter as a voltage doubler for 120Vac mains. This jumper is not used for

220/240Vac; thus the Input Filter develops a dc bus voltage of about 300Vdc for either 120 or 220/240Vac ac mains

voltages. Primary power also comes through Mains-Voltage Select switches to the Bias Power Supplies which provide the

internal operating voltages for the unit. The Mains-Voltage Select switches connect the primary windings of the bias

supplies transformer for operation at 120, 220, or 240Vac.

46

Figure 4-3. Simplified Schematic

47

The unit checks that the + 5Vdc bias voltage and the ac mains voltage are within acceptable limits as part of its turn on

sequence. When + 5Vdc comes up, the Bias Voltage Detector resets the Overvoltage-Protection circuit, enables the On

Pulse Driver for the PFET switches, and with the AC Surge-Dropout Detector starts the 1-Second-Delay circuit. After one

second, relay A1K1 bypasses the Inrush-Current Limiting resistor. After 0.1 seconds more, the 1-Second-Delay circuit

enables the PWM through the DROPOUT signal. The unit is then ready to deliver power.

When the AC-Surge and Dropout Detector detects high or low mains voltage, the unit shuts down until an acceptable ac

mains voltage returns. Then it repeats the above turn-on sequence. This protects the unit from damage from ac mains surges

and brownouts.

DC-to-DC Converter

PFET switches A4Q3 and A4Q4 control current flow from the Input Filter through power transformer T1. The PWM

triggers on-pulses and off-pulses for the PFETs. A train of on-pulses comes through diodes A4CR4 and A4CR3 to the

PFETs' gates to turn on the PFETs. The PFETs' input capacitances hold the PFETs on between on-pulses. Off-pulses turn

on transistors A4Q1 and A4Q2 which then short the PFETs input capacitances and turn off the PFETS .

The on-Pulse one-shot A2U15B and off-Pulse one-shot A2U15A generate the on- and off-pulses. A2U15B produces a train

of up-to four 160KHz on-pulses during the PWM output pulse. A2U15A triggers an off-pulse at each trailing edge of the

PWM pulses. Figure 4-4 shows the timing.

When the PFETs turn on, current flows through the primary of power transformer A1T1 and primary-current monitor

transformer, A4T3. The Output Rectifier, A4CR7, is reverse biased and blocks current flow in the A1T1 secondary.

consequently, the A1T1 transformer stores energy. When the PFETs apply the dc bus voltage to the primary, the primary

current ramps up storing more and more energy. The A4T3 transformer senses the A1T1 primary current, and the

secondary of A4T3 develops the Ip-Ramp Voltage across resistor A2R108. This linearly increasing voltage predicts the

correction in the supply's output voltage or current which will occur when the PFETs are turned off. Comparators

monitoring the Ip-Ramp Voltage signal the PWM to turn off the PFETs when it exceeds either the CP control-port voltage

or the Power-Limit reference voltage.

When the PFETs turn off, the collapsing magnetic field reverses the polarity of the voltages across the AlT1 primary and

secondary, and current flows from the AlT1 secondary through output Rectifier A4CR7 to charge output capacitors A1C8,

A1C9 and A1C10. When the PFETs turn off, the leakage inductance of Tl forces current to continue to flow in the primary.

Flyback Diodes A4CR13 and A4CR14 protect the PFETs from excess reverse voltage by conducting this current around

the PFETs and back to the input filter.

Down Programmer

The Down Programmer lowers the output voltage by rapidly discharging the output-filter capacitors. The Down

Programmer causes the output voltage to drop more quickly than it would if only the load discharged the capacitors. Its

negative resistance load characteristic discharges the output-filter capacitors at about a 1 ampere rate when the output

voltage is high 60Vdc and increases to about a 4 ampere rate when the output voltage is low (1Vdc). Five conditions can

trigger down programming: Programming of a lower output voltage, an overvoltage, an overtemperature, a remote disable,

or a primary power failure.

The Down-Programmer's input circuit is the diode-OR connection of the Master enable output from Inhibit Gate A2U19B

and the CV Error Voltage from CV Error Amplifier A2U8. The Down Programmer turns on when either the Master Enable

is low or when the CV Error Voltage is more negative than about -6Vdc. The + 8.9Vdc bias supply for the Down

Programmer stores enough energy in its input capacitor to operate the Down Programmer after loss of primary power. This

ensures that the Down Programmer will be able to discharge the output circuit when primary power is turned off.

48

Figure 4-4. PFET Control Signals Timing Diagram

Constant-Voltage (CV) Circuit

The Constant-Voltage Circuit compares the output voltage to the user-set CV PROGRAM Voltage to produce the CV

CONTROL Voltage. Two comparison amplifier loops accomplish the comparison. In the outerloop, CV Error Amplifier

A2U8 compares V-MON, a buffered fraction of the sensed output voltage OVS, to the program voltage from the CV

Programming Switches to create the CV ERROR Voltage. Then in the innerloop, Innerloop Amplifier A2U10A compares

this error voltage to IVS, a buffered fraction of the innerloop output voltage, to produce the CV CONTROL Voltage. The

CV ERROR Voltage is also diode-OR connected through diode A2CR21 as an input to the Down Programmer.

V-MON also connects through protective circuitry to rear-panel terminal VM for remote monitoring of the output voltage.

It is equal to 1/4 of the sensed output voltage OVS, and is 5Vdc for 60Vdc full output.

Settings of the CV Programming Switches, the B6, B5, and B4 MODE switch settings allow the CV PROGRAM Voltage

to come from the front-panel VOLTAGE Control; from an external voltage applied between rear-panel terminals VP and

sP; or from an external resistor between VP and sP. When using either the VOLTAGE Control or external resistor,

current from the CV Constant-Current Source flows through the applicable resistance to develop the CV PROGRAM

Voltage.

In CV mode, the CV CONTROL Voltage varies between about -0.5Vdc and about + 1.0Vdc. It is most negative when the

load is drawing no power. As the load draws more power, the voltage becomes more positive. The CV CONTROL Voltage

is at the cathode of diode A2CR24, part of the diode-OR input to the Control-Voltage Comparator. Diode A2CR20 prevents

voltage overshoots during transient load changes and program changes.

49

Constant-Current (CC) Circuit

The Constant-Current Circuit compares the output current to the user-set CC PROGRAM Voltage to produce the CC

CONTROL Voltage. As with the CV Circuit, two comparison amplifier loops accomplish the comparison. OCS is the

voltage across Current-Monitoring resistor A1R3, and it senses the output current for the outer loop which is the unit's

output current.

To compensate for the fraction of the output current which flows through the unit's output-voltage sensing resistors and not

through the load, CC Monitor Amplifier A2U1 adds a fraction of V-MON to OCS. It amplifies that sum to produce the

outerloop current-sense voltage, I-MON. I-MON also connects through protective circuitry to rear-panel terminal IM for

remote monitoring of the output current. In volts it is equal to 1/6 of the output current in amperes, and is 5Vdc for 10Adc

full output.

Differentiation of IVS develops a current-proportional voltage which senses the innerloop current flowing into the

capacitive output filter. CC Error Amplifier A2U2B sums this differentiated innerloop voltage with I-MON and subtracts

the sum from the CC PROGRAM Voltage to produce the CC CONTROL Voltage. In CC mode the CC CONTROL

Voltage varies from about--0.5Vdc to +1.0Vdc at the cathode of diode A2CR19. CC Clamp A2U2A limits the CC

PROGRAM Voltage to about 5.6 peak volts.

Settings of the rear-panel CC Programming Switches the B3, B2 and B1 MODE switch settings allow the CC PROGRAM

Voltage to come from the front-panel CURRENT Control, from an external voltage applied between terminals IP and /P, or

from an external resistor between IP and /P. When using either the CURRENT Control or external resistor, current from the

CC Constant-Current Source flows through the applicable resistance to develop the CC PROGRAM Voltage.

Overvoltage Protection (OVP) Circuit

The Overvoltage Protection Circuit (OVP) shuts down the unit when a monitored 1/30 fraction of the output voltage

exceeds the limit voltage set by the front-panel op ADJUST Control. If the output voltage exceeds the preset limit, the OVP

inhibits the PWM, triggers the Down Programmer, lights the OV LED and latches itself on until the unit is turned off. The

Bias Voltage Detector resets the OVP at turn-on of the unit. option 002 allows remote reset of OVP.

Power-Limit Comparator

Two comparisons with the Ip-RAMP VOLTAGE provide POWER LIMIT and CONTROL V LIMIT, two of the four

inputs for the PWM. POWER LIMIT is the output of the Power Limit Comparator A2U14A. The comparator compares the

IpRAMP VOLTAGE with the power-limit reference voltage of about 1.0Vdc. The reference is adjustable with the POWER

LIMIT calibration trim pot A2R25. The POWER LIMIT sets the maximum primary current in power transformer A1T1 by

going low and turning off the PWM when the Ip-RAMP VOLTAGE exceeds the reference.

Primary current is proportional to output power, and POWER LIMIT turns off the PWM when the CONTROL V LIMIT

would otherwise allow the unit to deliver more than about 200 watts. This occurs during transient load increases, step

increases in CV Program Voltage and when the combination of the CV PROGRAM Voltage and the CC PROGRAM

Voltage calls for more than 200 watts. The Power-Limit Comparator produces the power-limited portion of the unit's output

characteristic curve in Figure 4-1 and is the essence of the unit's Autoranging power.

Control-Voltage Comparator

The Control-Voltage Comparator A2U16 produces the CONTROL V LIMIT input to the PWM by comparing the IpRAMP

VOLTAGE to the CP control-port voltage. In CV or CC operation CP is one diode-drop more than the lower of the CV and

CC CONTROL Voltages. CONTROL V LIMIT goes low and turns off the PWM when the Ip-RAMP VOLTAGE exceeds

CP. The A2R113-A2R114 voltage divider steers control of CP by its connection at the anodes of series diodes A2CR19 and

50

A2CR24. The A2R113-A2R114 voltage divider sets the maximum CP voltage to + 1.5Vdc and assures that the diode with

the lower control voltage will be forward biased when its control voltage is less than + 1.5Vdc. As an illustration of CV-CC

selection, suppose the unit is in CV operation and diode A2CR24 is forward biased by a low CV CONTRL Voltage: Then

CV sets CP to less than + 1.5Vdc.

CV keeps diode A2CR19 reverse biased and prevents CC control until the CC CONTROL Voltage is even lower.

The lower of the control voltages varies between about--0.5Vdc and + 1.0Vdc regulating the unit's output. The higher

control voltage has no effect on the output and increases in response to the error voltage in its circuit. When higher, the CC

CONTROL Voltage limits at about 6Vdc. When higher, the CV CONTROL Voltage increases only slightly. In CV or CC

mode CP remains one diode-drop more than the lower control voltage and varies from about 0.0 to + 1.5Vdc. In

UNREGULATED mode CP is +1.5Vdc and both control voltages are more than about + 1.0Vdc.

Initial-Ramp Circuit

The Control Voltage and Ramp Voltage waveforms in Figure 4-4 show that there is a time delay between when the control

voltage is exceeded and when the PFETs turn off. This cumulative circuit delay would cause the PFETs to deliver power

even when no power is requested by the control circuits. To eliminate the delay, the Initial-Ramp Circuit adds a ramp

voltage to the Ip-RAMP VOLTAGE at the input to the Control Voltage Comparator. The added ramp voltage starts with

the 20KHz clock pulse and causes the combined-ramp voltage to exceed the control voltage earlier thereby essentially

eliminating the PFET turn-off delay. A two-stage RC integrating network consisting of resistors A2R116 and A2R117 and

capacitors A2C59 and A2C61 creates the Initial-Ramp by shaping the 20KHz clock pulses.

Pulse-Width Modulator (PWM)

The PWM generates 20KHz repetition-rate pulses which vary in length according to the unit's output requirements. The

pulses start 1.5µ after each 20KHz clock pulse and turn off when any of these four inputs go low. The output of the

Control-Voltage Comparator (CONTROL V LIMIT), the output of the Power-Limit Comparator (POWER LIMIT), the

20KHz clock pulse (50%-DUTY-CYCLE LIMIT), or the output of the Inhibit Gate A2U19A (MASTER ENABLE). As

discussed earlier, the PFETs turn on during, and turn off at the trailing edges of PWM output pulses.

The PWM generates pulses as follows: A 20KHz clock pulse holds the 1.5µ Delay Flip-flop A2U13B reset; 1.5µ after the

trailing edge of the 20KHz pulse, the next pulse from the 320KHz Clock oscillator clocks the output of A2U13B high, and

this initiates the PWM pulse from PWM Flip-flop A2U13A. When one of the above four inputs to AND-gate A2U19B goes

low. A2U19B resets A2U13A, and the PWM pulse turns off.

Bias Voltage Detector

The Bias Voltage Detector prevents spurious operation which might occur at power-on of the unit if circuits tried to operate

before the + 5Vdc bias voltage is at the clock, PWM, and logic circuits. After power-on, as the output of the + 5Vdc bias

supply rises from 0Vdc through about 1Vdc, three transistor switches in the Bias Voltage Detector turn on. They inhibit the

Relay Driver and the on-Pulse Driver, and they create the power-clear signal, PCLR2. The transistors inhibit the circuits

and hold PCLR2 low until the unregulated input to the +5Vdc bias supply is greater than about 11Vdc, an input voltage

sufficient to assure + 5Vdc bias output. PCLR2 resets the OVP at turn-on, and Option 002 uses PCLR2 in creating its

DROPOUT, OVERVOLTAGE, and POWER-ON RESET outputs.

AC-Surge Dropout Detector

Dropout Detector protects the unit from damage from ac mains voltage surges and dropouts by shutting down the unit when

there is either a 40% overvoltage or a 20 ms voltage interruption in the ac mains voltage. The detector shuts down the unit

51

by inhibiting the PWM through the DROPOUT signal from the l-Second-Delay Circuit. Mains Detect signal, which is

fullwave-rectified ac from the + 5Vdc secondary of the bias-supplies transformer, senses the ac mains voltage. The Dropout

Detector, including comparators A2U20A and A2U20C, operates by enabling a capacitor-timing ramp when Mains-Detect

ceases. Comparator A2U20D monitors the amplitude of Mains-Detect to provide ac surge voltage detection.

1-Second-Delay Circuit

The l-Second-Delay Circuit is the heart of the unit's controlled turn-on. It causes relay A1K1 to bypass inrush

current-limiting resistor A1R1 one second after turn-on, and it enables the PWM 0.1 seconds later. When either the output

of the AC-Surge and Dropout Detector or PCLR2 is low, NAND gate A2U11A holds the circuit reset. The circuit starts

counting at 1/16 the clock frequency (1.25 kHz) when both inputs to A2U11A are high and causes Relay Enable to go high

in 1.0 seconds and DROPOUT to go high in 1.1 seconds. When DROPOUT goes high, it stops the count, and it enables the

PWM. option 002 uses DROPOUT in creating its DROPOUT output.

Display Circuits

Figure 4-5 is a simplified schematic for the display circuits. The named signals from the CV and CC Circuits are connected

through semiconductor bilateral switches to the VOLTS digital voltage display and to the AMPS digital current display.

Either a blank display or a depressing of the DISPLAY OVP switch changes the VOLTS display from low range to high

range. A blank display occurs when the Voltage DVM A3U4 receives an over-range voltage, a voltage greater than

0.999Vdc. The blank display is detected by the Voltage-Range Switching Circuit. The diode-AND connection at inverting

amplifier A3U9A senses when two selected segments of the 7-segment LED for the second digit are both not lighted. The

detection scheme works because at least one of the selected segments is lighted for all digits 0 though 9.

The normal display is the actual output voltage and current and has bilateral switches A3U1A and A3U1D closed. Switch

A3UlA connects V-MON through buffer amplifier A3U2 and range-switching bilateral switches to the VOLTS DVM.

Switch A3Ul D connects I-MON through buffer amplifier A3U3A to the AMPS DVM. Depress the DISPLAY LIMITS

Switch, and CV and CC PROGRAM Voltages connect through bilateral switches A3U1B and A3U1C to display the

programmed output voltage and current. Depress the DISPLAY OVP Switch, and OV PROGRAM Voltage from the OVP

ADJUST Control connects through buffer amplifier A3U3B and bilateral switch A3U7B to display the programmed OVP

voltage limit. The CV and CC CONTROL Voltages also control the front-panel mode LEDs. When CV CONTROL

Voltage is more negative than CP, transistor A2Q6C lights CV LED A3DS9 showing that the unit is operating in

constant-voltage mode. When CC CONTROL is more negative than CP, transistor A2Q6F lights CC LED A3DS10

showing that the unit is operating in constant-current mode. And when both CV and CC are more positive than CP,

NAND-gate A2U11C lights UNREGULATED LED A3DS11 showing the unit is operating in power-limited, unregulated

mode.

System Option 002

General Information

This option facilitates the operation of the power supply in an automated system. Four major circuit blocks provide:

1 ) remote analog programming of the supply's output by three different control methods; 2) signals indicating the power

supply modes and conditions; 3) two different digital methods of remote control; and 4) the outputs of three bias supplies

for use with external circuitry.

The power supply equipped with this option can be operated from either a 6940B Multiprogrammer equipped with a

69520A power supply programming card or a 6942A Multiprogrammer equipped with a 69709A power supply

programming card.

Remote Programming. Through this interface both the output voltage and current can be remote programmed by either an

external voltage source, resistance, or a current sink.

Status Indicators. Six optically isolated lines provide open-collector digital outputs which indicate the following states:

constant voltage mode, constant current mode, output unregulated, ac dropout, overvoltage, and overtemperature.

Remote Control. Two optically isolated methods of remote control are available. 0ne method requires a negative going

edge, which sets a latch on the 002 card to inhibit the power supply. The latch and OVP are reset by a negative-going pulse

on another input line. The second method of remote control requires a low logic level to inhibit the power supply for the

duration of the low level.

Bias Supplies. The outputs of three bias supplies are also available at the option connector. These outputs are + 15V, -15V,

and +5V.

Monitoring. The 002 Option Board provides two monitoring outputs (I.MON. and V.MON) available at the option

connector. They both vary from 0 to 5V corresponding to a 0 to full scale output.

Other modes of operation, such as multiple supply system control, are described in detail in later paragraphs. Modes such as

Auto Series, Auto Parallel, and Auto Tracking Operation are described in the Operating Manual.

Specifications

Table A-1 provides specifications for the Option 002. This table is referred to periodically throughout the text of this

Appendix.

Option 002 Hardware

The Option 002 hardware consists of a single printed circuit board installed at the right side (facing the front-panel) of the

chassis. Two cables connect the option board to the A2 control board at A2J1 and A2J2. Connections between the option

board and external circuits are made via the 37-pin connector mounted on the option board and available at the rear of the

power supply. A mating connector is also included for the user's convenience.

Installation

When installing the board, perform the following steps:

a. Remove the top and inner cover of the power supply as discussed in Section 3 under Repair and Replacement.

b. Remove the plate next to the barrier strip on the rear panel of the supply by unscrewing the 2 M3 screws.

c. Insert the already prepared 002 board in the slot closest to the right side (looking from the front-panel) of the supply.

d. Use the two M3 screws to connect the rear end of the 002 board to the rear panel of the supply.

e. Attach ribbon cables from the A2 Control Board A2J1 to A7J1 and A2J2 to A7J2.

f. Replace the inner and outer cover of the supply.

Connector Assembly Procedure

The following instructions describe assembly of the mating connector provided to interface the user's system with the

option connector, J3. Figure A-1 identifies the parts of the mating connector.

Proceed as follows:

Note: It may be desirable to set up a test interface before final assembly of the mating connector to allow

checkout of the system. A mating connector with pins accessible for temporary wiring is available from

Agilent Technologies, Agilent part number 1251-4464.

If the cable assembly presents RFI or ESD problems, a shielded cable assembly accessory Agilent Part

Number 5060-2890 can be ordered.

a. If a multi-wire cable is being used (as opposed to individual wires), remove approximately 1 1/2 inches of cable

insulation from the end. Be careful not to cut the insulation on the individual wires.

b. Strip 3/16 inch of insulation from the end of each wire to be used.

c. Insert each wire into a contact pin (1) and crimp firmly.

d. Insert each pin into a proper hole in connector-pin house (2) from rear. Pins will lock into housing when fully inserted.

Note Once the pins are locked into the connector-pin housing, they are extremely difficult to remove.

Therefore, be certain pin is in proper hole before inserting fully.

e. Screw a slotted setscrew (3) partially into a square nut (4) and place in position in connector shield assembly (6).

f. Place strain relief (5) in position in connector shield assembly (6), just under set screw (3). Be certain that strain relief

is oriented as shown in Figure A-1.

g. Place connector pin housing (2) in shield assembly (6) and route cable through cable entrance.

h. Fold connector assembly (6) and secure with three screws.

i. Strain relief set screw (3) can now be adjusted from top of connector to clamp firmly on cable.

j. Clip fasteners (7) onto ends of connector pin housing (2).

k. Connector can now be plugged onto option connector J3 and secured with two screws (8) into the threaded stand-offs

on either side of J3.

Operation

The following paragraphs provide the operating instructions necessary to interface a 002-equipped power supply into an

automated system. A brief description of some circuits is also provided. The unit is shipped for front-panel operation with

mode switch settings as follows:

B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6

011011

Before beginning, switch the power supply's rear panel MODE switches B1 through B6 to their correct positions for the

programming source being used, (See Table A-2).

Next switch A1 and A2 also on the rear panel, to the correct program source function, See Figure A-2. All connections are

made at the 37-pin rear panel connector J3, and can be wired directly into the mating connector supplied for this purpose.

85

Figure A-2. 002 Option Rear Panel Connector J3 and Switches A1 and A2.

Local/Remote Programming

When switching to local/ control, remember to set Front-Panel Voltage and Current Control to safe levels.

Local Programming (Figure A-3). The supply can be switched back and forth between remote and local programming

while initially checking out a remote programming circuit. For proper operation of local programming, the user must

supply the bias voltage (CONTROL ISOLATOR BIAS). The Control Isolator Bias voltage can range from +4.75V to

+ 16V depending upon the user's interface circuits. Refer to Specifications Table A-1. For local programming, take the

Control Isolator Bias common and connect it to both of the LOC/REM terminals, and position mode switch as indicated in

Operation.

Although CONTROL ISOLATOR BIAS can be + 4. 75V to + 16V, a supply voltage of more than 7V

may damage the relays. Therefore, if CONTROL ISOLATOR BIAS exceeds 7V it is necessary to use a

resistor in series with each of the LOC/REM terminals. Figure A-4 provides a graph from which the

proper series resistance value can be determined. Note that the tolerances of both the Control Isolator

Bias and the resistor must be taken into account. The actual Control Bias used in Figure A-4 is obtained

after subtracting any driver gate voltage drop.

86

Figure A-3. Accessing Local Programming While In Remote Programming Mode

If solid state circuitry is used, connect the Control Isolator Bias to a driver capable of sinking 10mA of current, then

connect the driver's output to both of the LOC/REM terminals. Refer to Figure A-3. Either method will enable relays K1

(CV) and K2 (CC) to switch regulation to the front-panel VOLTAGE and CURRENT controls. For Control Isolator Bias

voltages greater than 7V, a resistor (Ropt) must be used in series with the Control Isolator Bias common or the Driver's

output. Figure A-4 provides a graph for determining the proper series resistance value depending on the Control Isolator

Bias voltage being used.

The supply can be returned to the remote programming mode by switching off the Control Isolator Bias common or by

increasing the Driver's output signal to within 1V of the Control Isolator Bias voltage. If remote programming is solely

desired, leave the LOC/REM terminals open and make the proper connections to the RESISTOR/VOLTAGE PROG. or

CURRENT PROG. terminals (See Figures A-5, A-6, A-7).

Figure A-4. Calculating Value of Series Dropping Resistor

Remote Resistance Programming

Check switches A1 and A2 on the rear panel, they must be in their correct positions for CV and CC resistance/voltage

programming (See Figure A-2). A resistance variable from 0 to 4K ohms can be used to program the output voltage or

current from 0 to full scale. To program the output voltage, connect the variable resistance between J3-25 (CV RES/VOLT

PROG.) and J3-22 (E COM.). To program the output current, connect the variable resistance from J3-24 (CC RES/VOLT

PROG.) to J3-22 (E COM.).

If the programming lines become open circuited during resistance programming (user’s system becomes

disconnected from J3), the power supply's output will tend to rise above rating. The supply will not be

damaged if this occurs, but the user's load may be damaged. To protect the load, be sure that the

overvoltage trip point is properly adjusted. The unit includes clamp circuits to prevent it from supplying

more than about 120% of rated output voltage or current when the remote programming voltage is

greater than 5Vdc or remote programming resistance is greater than 4K ohm. Do not intentionally

operate the unit above 100% rated output. Limit your programming voltage to 5Vdc and programming

resistance to 4K ohm to assure reliable operation.

Remote Voltage Programming (Figure A-6). Check switches Al and A2 on the rear panel, they must be in the correct

positions for CV and CC resistance/ voltage programming (See Figure A-2). A voltage source variable from 0 to 5 volts,

can be used to program the output voltage or current from 0 to full scale. The load on the programming source is less than

1mA. To program voltage, the voltage source should be connected from J3-25 (CV RES & VOLT PROG) to J3-22 (E

COM). To program current, the voltage source should be connected from J3-24 (CC RES & VOLT PROG) to J3-22 (E.

COMMON). If the programming lines become open circuited (user's system becomes disconnected from J3) during voltage

programming, the Programming Protection circuit will reduce the power supply output to zero.

88

Figure A-5. Remote Resistance Programming

Figure A-6. Voltage Programming of Output Voltage and Current

89

Current Programming (Figure A-7). Check switches A1 and A2 on the rear panel, they must be in the correct positions

for CV and CC current programming (See Figure A-2). A current sink variable from 0 to 2mA, can be used to program the

output voltage or current from 0 to full scale (See Figure A-7). The following paragraph provides a brief circuit description,

refer to schematic diagram.

Figure A-7. Current Programming of Output Voltage and Current

To program voltage, the current sink can be connected from J3-21 (CV CURRENT PROG) to J3-20 ( -15V). To program

current, the current sink can be connected from J3-2 (CC CURRENT PROG) to J3-20 ( -15V). Current sinks can either be

connected to the power supply ( -15V) or to an external negative supply that is referenced to the L. COMMON of the power

supply.

The 0 to 2mA current sink will cause the output signal of op-amps U17 and U18 to vary proportionally from 0 to 5 volts.

These signals are then coupled through relays K1 and K2 and then on to the A2 Board's CV and CC circuits which, in-turn,

will program the supply's output from 0 to full scale. If the programming lines become open circuited (user's system

becomes disconnected from J3) during current programming, the Programming Protection circuit will bring the power

supply output to zero.

Remote Monitoring

The 002 Option board provides a protected 0 to 5V output corresponding to a full scale voltage output. The voltage monitor

output is available between pins J3-5 (V. Monitor) and J3-1 (D COMMON).

Observe the caution described in Local Programming paragraph, page 85 (Figure A-3).

90

Output impedance is l0K ohm: the monitoring device input impedance should be at least 1M ohm to limit error to 1% +

basic accuracy; 10M ohm to limit error to 0.1% + basic accuracy.

The I. MON signal from the mainframe is also brought out through the 002 Option board. A 0 to full scale current-monitor

output is available between pins J3-3 (I. MON) and J3-1 (D COMMON). Output impedance is l0K ohms: the monitoring

device input impedance should be at least 1M ohm to limit error to 1% + basic accuracy.

In some applications it may be desirable to install a noise-suppression capacitor on these monitor outputs to lessen the

effects of noise induced in the monitor leads. The capacitors should be ceramic or tantalum type, from 0.1 to 1µF. The

capacitor is installed directly across the monitor device input terminals .

Status Indicators

Six optically isolated lines provide open collector digital outputs which indicate certain modes and conditions of power

supply operation. For proper supply operation of the opto-isolators, the user must supply the bias voltage, (ISOLATOR

BIAS). This voltage can be from +4.75V to + 16V depending upon the user's interface circuits, refer to the specifications

Table A-1. Connect the bias voltage ( + ) between J3-37, (ISOLATOR BIAS) and J3-34 (ISOLATOR COMMON). The

status indicator outputs are open collector (referenced to ISOLATOR common); therefore, it is necessary to connect a

pull-up resistor from each output to ISOLATOR BIAS. When choosing the resistor value observe the current sink

capabilities of these lines as described in the Specifications Table A-1.

Because of the relatively slow rise and fall times of opto-isolators, Schmitt-triggered devices should be used to interface

these output lines to logic circuits.

The following signals are in active low-form:

a. MODECV , J3-36, indicates that the power supply is in constant voltage operation.

b. MODECC , J3-35, indicates that the power supply is in constant current operation.

c. DUNREGULATEOUTPUT , J3-18, indicates that the power supply is in neither constant voltage nor constant

current operation and cannot be guaranteed to meet specifications.

d. EOVERVOLTAG , J3-17, indicates power supply shutdown because of: the voltage output exceeding the OV trip

point set at the front-panel; or, a system-initiated shutdown as described in multiple supply system shutdown section,

page 93.

e. ATUREOVERTEMPER , J3-16, indicates power supply shutdown due to an excessive temperature rise on the FET or

output diode heatsink.

The Low Bias AC DROPOUT signal, J3-19, is in active high form. This signal indicates: loss of primary power,

momentary AC dropout. or "brownout'' conditions where the AC line voltage drops below approximately 70% nominal.

Remote Control

For operation of the opto-isolators, the user must supply the bias voltage (CONTROL ISOLATOR BIAS). This voltage

can be from + 4.75V to + 16V depending on the requirements of the driving circuits. The type of driving logic and bias

voltage will determine the amplitude of the high and low logic levels, refer to the Specification Table A-1 under Remote

Control.

Connect the bias voltage ( + ) to J3-10 CONTROL ISOLATOR BIAS, and reference the input signals to this bias supply's

negative terminal.

Two optically isolated methods of remote control are available. They are described in the following paragraphs.

91

Remote Trip. A negative-going edge applied to terminal J3-30 ( TRIPREMOTE ) will shut down the power supply,

reducing the output voltage to near zero. For minimum pulse duration and timing considerations with respect

to RESETREMOTE , See Table A-1. The following paragraph provides a brief circuit description (See schematic diagram

and Figure A-8).

A negative going edge at TRIPREMOTE coupled through opto-isolator (U9) causes one-shot U13B to set the

TRIP/RESET latch (U5A) low. This sets terminal J1-13 ( INHIBIT ) low, thus inhibiting the Pulse Width Modulator of the

power supply. It also lights the unregulated indicator on the front-panel and generates an unregulated signal from the

opto-isolator U3.

The low signal generated by the Trip/Reset Latch is also coupled through opto-isolator U2 and appears at J3-17 as an

EOVERVOLTAG status signal. This signal does not affect the state of the power supply's OVP circuit.

Remote Reset. A negative-going edge applied to terminal J3-29 ( RESETREMOTE ) will return the supply to its initial

state following a system-initiated shutdown or an OVP shutdown caused by a temporary over voltage condition. For

minimum pulse duration and timing considerations with respect to TRIPREMOTE See Table A-1 under Remote Control.

The following paragraphs provide a brief description of this circuit (See schematic diagram and Figure A-8).

A negative-going pulse applied to terminal J3-29 ( RESETREMOTE ) is coupled through opto-isolator U10. One-Shot

U13A then triggers and resets the TRIP/RESET latch output high. This sets terminal J1-13 ( INHIBIT ) high, thus enabling

the power supply's Pulse Width Modulator.

The RESETREMOTE signal will also reset the power supply OVP circuit in the event that an overvoltage condition has

shut down the supply. When a RESETREMOTE signal is present, ONE SHOT U13A goes low, this will produce an OV

CLEAR pulse at terminal J1-12. The CLEAROV pulse will cause the output of A2U2 to go low thus, resetting the OV

FLIP FLOP. When this occurs the output of A2U24D goes high and simultaneously causes the front-panel OV LED to turn

off and the OV signal (J1-6) to go high. The EOVERVOLTAG signal to U4B also goes high and enables the PWM of the

power supply .

Note By observing the EOVERVOLTAG status indicator or the power supply's output while applying a reset

pulse to RESETREMOTE , the user can determine the cause of shutdown. If the output returns and

EOVERVOLTAG goes high immediately, this indicates a controller-initiated shutdown. If the output

takes about one second to return, this indicates that the output voltage had exceeded the OVP trip point. If

the OVP circuit trips continually, check the load and/or the trip point setting.

Alternate Method of Remote Control. The INHIBITREMOTE input, J3-31, provides an alternate method of remote

shutdown. By maintaining a low logic level at this input, the supply's output will be inhibited until INHIBITREMOTE is

returned to its initial high state. The following paragraph provides a brief description of this circuit (See schematic diagram

and Figure A-8).

A low logic level applied to terminal J3-31 ( INHIBITREMOTE ) is coupled through opto-isolator U8 and causes U4B to

inhibit the power supply's (PWM) Pulse Width Modulator. If jumper W1 is used (See Figure A-8) while a

INHIBITREMOTE signal is applied, an EOVERVOLTAG signal will appear at terminal J3-17 EOVERVOLTAG thus,

indicating the power supply shut down.

92

Figure A-8. Remote Control

Power-On Preset

This open collector output line J3-6, provides a logic low pulse ( Preset-On -Power ) to the user that can be used to

initialize or delay a system's operation until + 5V Reg. supply has stabilized. The pulse is generated after primary power is

turned on and also after resumption of power following momentary ac dropout or conditions in which line voltage drops

below approximately 70% of the nominal. See Table Al for Preset-On-Power signal specifications.

The Preset-On-Power circuit also ensures that terminal J3-17 ( EOVERVOLTAG ) will be high when the supply is

turned on. This protects against unwanted Multiple Supply System Shutdowns when using J3-17 ( EOVERVOLTAG ) to

remote trip additional power supplies.

The following paragraphs provide a brief description of the power-on preset circuit, refer to schematic diagram:

Circuits on the Power Supply's A2 Control Board produce a power-clear signal, ( PCLR ), when the supply is turned on.

These circuits hold PCLR low until the unregulated input to the A2 Board's + 5Vdc bias supply is greater than about

11Vdc, an input voltage sufficient to assure + 5Vdc bias output.

This PCLR signal is coupled through terminal J1-15 to the 002 Option board's power-on preset circuit. When the power-on

preset circuit receives the PCLR signal, transistors U14A and U14C turn off.

Turning U14A off causes a DROPOUT signal to appear at terminal J3-19 ( DROPOUT ). Turning U14C off causes U14B

and U14D to turn on. When U14B is on, it holds output J3-17 ( EOVERVOLTAG ) high. Holding J3-17 high will prevent

any unwanted Multiple Supply Shutdowns from occurring when the supply is wired for such an application. When U10D is

93

on, it causes J3-6 ( Preset-On-Power ) to be low thus, if used, can initialize or delay a customer's system operation.

AC Dropout Buffer Circuit

This circuit couples, inverts and isolates the DROPOUT signal (received from the A2 Control Board) of status output

terminal J3-19 ( DROPOUT ). The dropout signal indicates loss of primary power, momentary AC dropout, or "brownout"

conditions where the AC line voltage drops below approximately 70% normal. The following paragraph provides a brief

description of the AC Dropout Buffer circuit. Refer to the Schematic Diagram

The AC Dropout Buffer Circuit receives a DROPOUT signal from the A2 Control Board. This causes the bias voltage

supplied to the Dropout Buffer U14A to be pulled down through diode CR4 thus, turning U14A off. This in turn will cause

opto-isolator U3 to turn off. Since external pull up resistors are used, terminal J3-19 (DROPOUT) will go high and remain

high until the dropout signal from the A2 Control Board is removed.

Multiple Supply System Shutdown

When using more than one 002 Option equipped power supply in a system, it may be desirable to implement a system

shutdown. In this configuration, an OVP trip or remote shutdown of a single unit will cause all of the supplies to shut down

Figure A-9. System Shutdown using Controller Power Supply

Figure A-9 shows one method of system shutdown. The advantages of this method are that one common is used for all

status and control lines (useful for controller-operated systems), and the capability of system reset. As shown in Figure A-9,

one supply's EOVERVOLTAG line is connected to the next supply's TRIPREMOTE line, and so on in a continuous

chain.

Note +5V REG/POWER SUPPLY common from Supply 1 can be used instead of the bias voltage from the

controller. However, because of current limits of the + 5V REG, no more than four units can be

connected together in this configuration. To prevent ground loops, do not parallel connect + 5V REG

from more than one supply.

The note on page 91 tells how to determine if a shutdown was initiated through the remote trip line or by a supply's OVP. This

allows the controller to determine which supply initiated the shutdown. Following a multiple supply shutdown, each unit can

be reset individually or all the REMOTE RESET lines can be tied together for a system reset.

94

If it is necessary to have all the supplies come up simultaneously after a system shutdown, follow this procedure:

a. First bring the INHIBITREMOTE line low.

b. Provide a negative-going pulse to the RESETREMOTE .

c. After at least one second, return INHIBITREMOTE to a high level.

Figure A-10. System Shutdown Using Bias Supply Output

Figure A-10 shows a second method of system shutdown. This method is appropriate in systems which are not

controller-operated and in which more than four supplies must be shutdown simultaneously. Because each supply derives

its CONTROL ISOLATOR BIAS from the previous supply's + 5V REG, there is no limit to the number of supplies that can

be shutdown. Each supply must be reset individually.

Using either method of system shutdown, PCLR inhibits the EOVERVOLTAG indicator from going low and shutting

down succeeding supplies upon initial sum-on. After the supplies have stabilized, PCLR returns to a high state.

Bias Supplies

The outputs of three current-limited bias supplies are available for user-supplied circuitry. These are + 15V @ 75mA at

J3-4, -15V @ 75mA at J3-20, and +5 V @ 100mA at J3-23; all with respect to J3-7, L Common.

It may be desirable to install noise-suppression capacitors on the bias supply outputs near the load circuits. The capacitors

should be ceramic or tantalum type, approximately 0.1µF to 10µF.

Maintenance

The following paragraphs provide procedures and setups to aid in checking and troubleshooting the 002 Option Board. This

information, used in conjunction with the schematic drawing and the Operation section of this Appendix, will help in the

isolation and repair of faulty circuits.

When testing the option, use of the test connector on page 83 will allow easier access to the J3 contacts.

95

Troubleshooting

Before attempting to troubleshoot the 002 Option Board, ensure that the fault is with the option itself and not with the main

power supply. This can be accomplished by removing the top cover, inside cover and disconnecting the two ribbon cables

from the A2 Control board and checking the operation of the main supply. Otherwise troubleshoot the option board as

described in the following paragraphs.

Removal of the Option Board. To facilitate troubleshooting the 002 Option the board can be removed from the power

supply and electrically connected via the ribbon cables from Service Kit's 06033-60005 or 5060-2665. To remove the

circuit board proceed as follows:

a. Turn off power supply and disconnect line cord.

b. Disconnect option I/O cable from J3 on rear panel and remove the two screws that secure option board to rear panel.

c. Disconnect the ribbon cables from the A2 Control board.

d. Remove option board by lifting the board by the front edge and sliding the board toward the front of the power supply.

e. Reconnect the option board to the A2 Control board using the extended ribbon cables from the Service Kit, and pace

the option board on an insulated surface next to the power supply.

f. Be careful that the option board lies securely on insulating material and does not touch any part of the main power

supply.

Isolating Faulty Circuit. It is apparent which function is not operating properly, proceed to the appropriate paragraph. If

the problem involves more than one function check the bias voltages from connectors J1 and J2 and the ± 11.8V on the

option board.

Troubleshooting Resistance and Voltage Programming

a. Confirm that the problem is on the option board by disconnecting the ribbon cables from the A2 Control Board and

attempting to program the supply via the rear panel terminal strip.

b. Check ± 15V and ± 11.8V supplies.

c. Check for a problem in the programming protection circuit. This circuit should draw about 2µA from the programming

lines.

d. Check that W3 and W4 are installed and S1 is in proper position .

Troubleshooting Current Programming

a. Check ± 15V and ± 11.8V supplies.

b. Proceed to test set-up shown in Figure A-11 and/or A-12.

c. Put S1 in V, R position and see if varying the 0-20V voltage source produces a 0-5 volt DC level across R44 or R39. If

not, check op-amps and associated circuitry.

d. Put S1 in I position and see if varying voltage source from 0 to 20 volts produces a 0-5Vdc level at W3 or W4. If not

check relay and programming protection circuit.

b. Turn on power supply.

c. Using "Display Setting'' set voltage and current or power supply for 1 volt and 1 amp.

d. DVM should read between 0 and 0.4Vdc.

e. Turn off power supply and short to output terminals.

f. Turn on power supply.

g. DVM should read approximately 5Vdc.

To check Mode CC proceed as follows:

a. Using test set-up, Figure A-13, connect top end of 2KΩ resistor to J3-35.

b. Turn on power supply.

c. Using "Display Settings'' set voltage for 1 volt and current for 1 Amp.

d. DVM should read = 5Vdc.

e. Turn off power supply and short the output terminals.

f. Turn on power supply.

g. DVM should read between 0 and 0.4Vdc.

h. Turn "OVP Adjust" fully clockwise and turn off input power for 5 seconds.

i. Turn on input power and DVM should read approximately 5Vdc.

To check ED UNREGULATOUTPUT proceed as follows:

a. Using test set-up, Figure A-13, connect to end of 2KΩ to J3-18.

b. Connect output terminals of power supply to an electronic load capable of exceed the power supplies output power

rating by 50%.

98

c. Turn on power supply.

d. DVM should read approximately 5Vdc.

e. Set voltage and current controls of power supply to maximum.

f. Decrease resistance of electronic load until "UNREGULATED" LED on front-panel lights.

a. DVM should now read between 0 and 0.4Vdc.

Note The FET heatsinks are connected to the primary circuit and hazardous voltage (up to between 300 to

400V) exists between the heatsinks and the heatsink and the chassis. These potentials remain for up to 2

minutes if the power supply is turned off. Do not touch the heatsinks or any components on the heatsink

assemblies while the power supply is turned on or for at least two minutes after primary power is

removed. Do not place any of the heatsink assemblies on extender boards.

Indicator and Qualifier Symbols

OR function

Polarity indicator, shown outside logic symbol. Any marked input or output is active low; any unmarked

input or output is active high.

(Dynamic indicator) Any market input is edge-triggered, ie, active during transition between states. any

unmarked input is level sensitive.

(Schmitt trigger) indicates that hysteresis exists in device.

(Non-logic indicator) Any marked input or output does not carry logic information.

Open-collector or open emitter output

Monostable (one-shot) multivibrator.

t = xSec Indicates pulse width usually determined by external RC network.

G Gate input (a number following G indicates which inputs are gated)

C Control input (clock)

R Reset (clear)

SSet

OLD SYMBOL NEW SYMBOL NOTES

Output requires external components to achieve logic state

A positive-going transition at A or a negative-going transition at B

triggers the one-shot. External timing components connect to

non-logic inputs.

Output changes state rapidly regardless of input rate of change.
