BASIC_PUSH_PULL_CONVERTER_CIRCUIT

Published:2009/7/16 22:44:00 Author:Jessie

The push-pull converter consists of two forward converters working 180° out of phase. Both halves of the push-pull Converter deliver current to the load at each half cycle, and the inductor stores energy. Diodes D1 and D2 conduct simultaneously between transistor conduction, effectively short-circuiting the secondary isolation transformers. Acting as flywheel diodes, these diodes deliver useful power to the output.   (View)

±14_V_TRANSFORM_ERLESS

Published:2009/7/16 22:41:00 Author:Jessie

Simple low-current regulated supply requires no power transformer. Output current can be increased by using better filtering. Second ground prong is connected through fuse to grounded center conductor of AC line to guard against faulty AC wiring. If wiring is reversed, fuse will disable power supply and neon fault indicator will come on.-D. Kochen, Transformerless Power Supplies, 73 Magazine, Sept. 1971, p 14-17.   (View)

BASIC_FORWARD_CONVERTER_CIRCUIT

Published:2009/7/16 22:38:00 Author:Jessie

The figure is a simplified schematic for a transformer-coupled forward converter. Based on the buck converter, it is similar to the flyback converter. Inductor L1, rather than transformer T1, stores the energy. When switching transistor Q1 turns on, current builds in the primary winding of trans-former T1, storing energy. Because the secondary winding has the same polarity as the primary winding, energy is transferred forward to the output. Energy is also stored in inductor L2 through forward-biased diode D2. At this time, flywheel diode D3 is back-biased. When Q1 turns off, the transformer winding voltage reverses, back-biasing diode D2. Diode D3 becomes forward-biased, causing current to flow through RL and delivering energy to the load through inductor L1. The third winding and diode Dl return transformer T1's magnetic energy to the dc input when Q1 is off.   (View)

TUNNEL_DIODE_DISCRIMINATOR

Published:2009/7/16 22:38:00 Author:Jessie

Td1, biased dose to its peak current, is connected to d-c amplifier to overcome inherent limitations of tunnel diode. When input voltage makes current through R3 exceed diode peak current, diode switches to its high-voltage state of 0.5 v. Q1 amplifies this change by factor of 10, and Q2 initiates start of square wave output. When input drops, circuit and diode revert to original state. Rise and fall times are about 10 nsec.-G.

FIVE_OUTPUT_CONVERTER

Published:2009/7/16 22:37:00 Author:Jessie

Digital panel meters (DPMs) make excellent displays for instruments and test equipment, but they suffer from one major flaw: They require a floating power supply, usually in the form of a 9-V battery. This circuit powers up to five meters from a single 1.8- to 6-V source. Each of the five outputs is fully floating, isolated, and independent in every respect. The converter is based on a flyback design, and it uses a micropower, high-efficiency regulator (LT1303) and an off-the-shelf, surface-mount inductor. The coil has six identical windings and is high-voltage-tested to 500 V rms-more than adequate isolation for the application. Operation is as follows: Feedback is extracted from the primary by Q1, which samples the flyback pedestal during the switch-off time. Typical DPMs draw approximately 1-mA supply current. The primary also is loaded with 1 mA for optimum regulation and ripple. Snubbing components, a necessity in most flyback circuits, are obviated by the action of C1 and C2. The converter also can be used with a battery. In this case, a sixth panel meter can be powered by the primary across C2. All that is required to balance the load current is to increase R1 and R2 by a factor of 10. Although this circuit is set up for 9-V output (actually 9.3 V), some DPMs need 5 or 7 V. As a result, a 4.3- or 6.2-kΩ resistor should be used in place of R1 for these voltages. The output voltage is set by R1 = (Vout-0.7)/1 mA. If any outputs aren't needed, omit the associated components and parallel the unused winding with the primary, observing the phasing. With each output loaded at 1 mA, the input current is 16.5 mA on a 5-V supply. This figure rises to about 45 mA on a 1.8-V (two-cell) input.   (View)
