Abstract :
This 130-page catalog and discussion provides a basis for the understanding of power supply design and performance. The basic ac to dc power supply model is developed, while different circuit arrangements illustrate methods to adjust voltage power supplies. There are discussions on measurement techniques, digital control, thermal design criteria, operational theory, output deviations in high-speed power supplies, multi-unit interconnections, bounding, and automatic crossover. A power supply glossary is also included.
