Measurement Basics II Dr. Dave Shattuck 1 ECE 2100 Power supply: current meter and current limit Light Bulb and LED!

The Power Supply 2 Course Adjust Fine Adjust Current Limit Recall the current limit knob on the power supply… The supply will not provide an infinite current: current will be limited at any particular voltage. The limiting current is adjustable with this knob.

Let’s Have a Little Fun… 3 Note the voltage and current rating on the bulb. What circuit element could we use to model the bulb in an electric circuit schematic? What value would that circuit element have?

Set up… 4 1.Set the voltage source to 0. 2.Turn the current limit knob fully clockwise (max value). 3.Connect the power supply to the bulb. 4.Slowly increase the voltage until the bulb glows.

Current Measurement 5 1. Press the V/A button (on whichever supply you are using). With this button pressed in, the display shows current being delivered by the source. 2. Now slowly rotate the current limit knob counter-clockwise. When the current limit is reached by the bulb current, the meter goes into “constant current” (CC) mode. The power supply will not deliver more current than the value set by the knob.

Applications… 6 Safety feature: The current limit knob can be set to the max current that should enter the circuit. This will prevent damage to the circuit. Troubleshooting: The smallest value that can be set on the current limit is about 100[mA]. This value is almost certainly larger than any current you will need in the ECE 2100 labs. Therefore, you should not see the CC light go on in ECE If you do, it probably means your circuit has a “short circuit” somewhere, and that it is drawing more current than it is supposed to.

Tracking Power Supplies 7 INDEP/TRACK Out (INDEP): two separate 30[V] power supplies. In (TRACK): one single 60[V] power supply. With supply B COARSE and FINE set fully clockwise, the voltage on A and B will be the same, and will be set by the A knobs. If supply B is not fully turned clockwise, the two supplies are set independently. However, the supply B is limited to the value of Supply A. In any case, the voltages add. Internal connection is made in “TRACK” mode. - +

Tracking Power Supplies 8 In TRACK mode: In this mode, supply B will track supply A. It is unlikely that you will have any need for currents above 4[A] in ECE You should consider this information as something of potential use, in the future. - + SER/PAR (series/parallel) Out (SER): power supplies are in series and behave as described last slide. In (PAR): power supplies are connected in parallel and will supply twice the current of one (2[A] each; 4[A] total).
