The supply makes load circuit performance inde- pendent of external power supply influences. The supply has very low source impedance and ex- cellent regulation against change in line and/or load. This supply is especially useful as a source of power for transistor circuits. A circuit is provided which electronically limits the maximum output cur- rent that can be supplied to four nominal values selected by a front panel switch. This feature helps prevent the accidental destruction of an expensive transistor should an accident occur that would nor- mally allow excessive current to flow through it. The SHORT CIRCUIT CURRENT switch can be set to the value which is closest above the normal operating current. The supply will automatically limit the peak current flow to this nominal value regardless of the load resistance. Built-In Metering A built-in meter allows either output voltage or current to be monitored as selected by theMETER RANGE switch. SECTION I GENERAL INFORMATION Isolated Output The power supply has both output terminals in- sulated from chassis ground. Either terminal may be grounded or a number of supplies may be con- nected in series to obtain higher voltages. Insula- tion is such that the supply may be operated as high as 400 volts off of ground. Parallel ODeration Parallel operation of two or more supplies is pos- sible due to the unique electronic current limiting switch. The supplies will each contribute only the number of milliamperes selected by the SHORT CIRCUIT CURRENT switch. The individual supplies may be loaded to approximately 225 ma with some reduction in ripple and regulation characteristics. Reliability The Model 721A Power Supply is very compact, and has low internal losses., which are made possible by fully transistorized circuitry. The trouble free characteristics of transistors together with the use of high quality components throughout, will result in a minimum of maintenance. 1-3 INSPECTION When the Model 721A is received, inspect it for damage received in transit. Operate the instrument to make certain that it is functioning satisfactorily. If damage is evident, follow the procedures outlined in the “CLAIM FOR DAMAGE IN SHIPMENT” page of this manual. 1-4 POWER CABLE The power cable consists of three conductors and is terminated in a three-prong male connector rec- ommended by the National Electrical Manufac- Sect. I Page 2 Model 721A turers Association. The third contact is an offset round pin added to a standard two-blade connector which grounds the instrument chassis when used with an appropriate receptacle. To use thisNEMA connector in a two-contact receptacle, a three- prong to two-prong adapter should be used. When the adapter is used, the third contact is terminated in a short lead from the adapter which can be con- nected to the outlet mounting box in order to ground the instrument cabinet. 1-5 230 VOLT OPERATION This instrument may be easily converted from 115 to 230 volt operation by removing two jumpers and installing one jumper. This changes the dual 115 volt primary windings from a parallel to a series connection. Refer to the schematic diagram and Figure 4-6 for details. The main fuse should be changed from 1/4 ampere slow-blow type to 1/8 ampere slow-blow type. I Model 721A Sect. I1 Page 1 2-1 OPERATING CONTROLS Figure 2- 1 shows the function of each of the controls and is normally self explanatory. There are a few additional facts to be considered which may beim- portant in some applications. 2-2 METER RANGE SWITCH This switch connects precision internal resistors into the meter circuit to obtain the various voltage and current ranges. When measuring current, the meter shunt resistor is in series with the output terminals. The meter shunt resistance adds to the source impedance of the supply which is normally less than 0.2 ohm in series with less than 30ph. The Table 2-1 lists the additional resistance for each current range. Where minimum source im- pedance is important, the METER RANGE switch should be left on one of the voltage ranges except when actually measuring load current. An accidental short circuit can damage the meter if it is on one of the lower ranges and the SHORT CIRCUIT CUR- RENT switch is set to a high value. Short time overloads of two times full scale will not damage the meter movement. SECTION II OP ERATlN G INSTRUCT10 NS 2-3 SHORT CIRCUIT CURRENT SWITCH This switch controls a circuit which adjusts the peak current output capability of the supply. The Cali- bration is nominal. The actual value may be read by shorting the supply and reading the value on the monitor meter. The clipping action is gradual. Consideration should be given to this characteristic if pulse type circuits are being supplied. The average current may be within the supply rating (150 ma) but peakcurrents may be high enough to cause the supply to clip. If the switch is set to a low peak value this situation can occur at low average current levels. When pulse circuits are being supplied, this switch must be set to a value which is greater than the peak cur- rent requirements of the circuit. The output circuit has 24 pf capacity shunting it, which helps supply high current peaks, providing they are of extremely short duration. The value of any external capacity added will improve the peak current capability but will decrease the safety provided by the SHORT CIRCUIT CURRENT switch, since the external capacity will provide high surge currents. The surge currents may destroy external components before the average current increases sufficiently inside the s u i l y to cause the limiting circuits to operate. TABLE 2- 1.

To do so will instantly destroy the electrolytic capa- citors in the power supply and possibly the transis- tors. When a number of supplies are operated in series, be sure the SHORT CIRCUIT CURRENT switch on each supply is set to the same (or higher) value than maximum peak current desired. Sect.

Model 721A Sect.II Page 3 2-5 PARALLEL OPERATION OF SUPPLIES The second supply may be loaded beyond the 150 ma Two supplies may be operated in parallel tosupply loads in excess of 150 ma. Set the SHORT CIR- CUIT CURRENT switch of the first unit to maximum (225 ma). The first supply becomes a 225 ma con- stant current source. The supply will furnish up to this amount of current without harm, however the regulation and ripple specifications can no longer be guaranteed. Adjust the voltage of the second point up to a maximum of 225 ma, making a total of 450 ma available. The usefulness of this extra out- put capacity depends on the performance required from the supplies. The supplies become constant current sources when the SHORT CIRCUIT CUR- RENT limiting circuit is operating. At this point the ripple, source impedance and voltage regulation specifications cannot apply. supply to be the same as the first unit before con- necting them together. The second supply can be made to share load by advancing the VOLTAGE ADJUST control slightly clockwise. The second supply will furnish the regulation action up to the limit of its capacity (150 ma). Operation of more than two instruments inparallel is not recommended as the total current capacity becomes greater and accidental gross misadjusted controls may result in instability. Model 721A Sect. 111 Page 1 SECTION Ill 3-1 GENERAL CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION The regulation is accomplished in a manner which is similar to vacuum tube type circuits. Apower type transistor in series with the rectified output and the load, acts like a variable resistor which maintains a constant output voltage or current as selected by the controls. The power transistor is controlled by a two stage amplifier which amplifies any changes in the relative amplitudes of the output voltage and the reference voltage. The electronic short circuit current limiting switch is a unique feature which is not normally found in the vacuum tube counterpart of the supply. This circuit senses any increase in current above a pre-selected value and in turn controls the conduction of the power transistor to limit the peak current to the pre-selected value. A detailed description of the Power Supply and its operation follows. Refer to the schematic diagram to identify the various com- ponents. 3-2 M A I N A N D AUXILIARY SUPPLY DESCRIPTION Transformer T1 supplies ac voltages to the main and auxiliary supplies. The main supply consists of silicon rectifiers CR1 and CR2 and capacitor C2. This supply furnishes about 43 volts to the regulator circuit. Silicon rectifier CR3, CR4 and capacitors C3, C4 and C5 supply -20 volts, which is required for operation of the control circuits. Regulator transistor Q1 acts as a variable series resistance to lower the voltage to the desired value, as set by the front panel VOLTAGE ADJUST control R19. Q1 conducts more current when the base volt- age goes more negative with respect to the emitter. 3-3 REFERENCE VOLTAGE CR7 is a reversed biased diode operating in the break-down condition. The diode maintains a con- stant nominal 7 volts across itself, establishing a constant reference voltage between the negative out- 1 THEORY OF OPERATION put lead and the base of 44. 4 4 is an emitter follower which repeats the reference voltage at its emitter terminal, less a constant internal base- emitter drop of about 0.2 volt. The voltage at the emitter has a low source impedance, making it insensitive to normal variations in current flow. The output voltage from the (+) output bus is sampled by VOLTAGE ADJ
