Theory of Operation
POWER SUPPLY OPERATION
A40 Preregulator
The A40 preregulator contains a rectifier and a switching regulator, converts the line
voltage to + 24 V and provides it to the A50 DC-DC converter.
A50 DC-DC Converter
The A50 DC-DC Converter consists of the two switching regulators. The DC-DC
converter provides LEDs(red) to indicate circuit status. The shutdown LED is turned off
when the overcurrent protection circuit activates. The circuit activates when an overcurrent
is sensed on the +5VD power line, when an overcurrent is sensed on the four power
supplies (±8V and ±15V), or when the FAN LOCK signal is sensed. It shuts down the five
power supplies of the switching regulators.
Regulated + 5V Digital Supply( + 5VD)
The +5VD power supply is fully regulated in the A50 DC-DC converter. It goes directly to
the A1 CPU and is supplied to all assemblies requiring a digital + 5V supply through the
A1, and the A20 motherboard.
A50 Shutdown LED
The A50 shutdown LED is on during normal operation. It turns off when the A50
protective circuits are activated and shut down some power lines. The shutdown LED turns
off when one of the following conditions is sensed:
Overcurrent on + 5 VD power line
Overcurrent on the four power supplies (±8 V and ± 15 V)
Fan is not rotating (FAN LOCK signal is sensed)
The fan obtains its power + 24 V from A40 preregulator through the A50 DC-DC
converter. When the power is missing, the FAN LOCK signal shuts the switching
regulators down and turns the A50 shutdown LED off.
A9 Floating Power Supply
The A9 floating power supply distributes the + 24 V power supply voltage to the A2 Hc
Amp. The A9 floating power supply is equipped with a protective shutdown circuit. The
A9 floating power supply provides two LEDs to indicate circuit status.
