Power Supplies
The line voltage is filtered and applied to the main power supply. This 15
volt supply is always on when line power is applied to the waveform
generator. A regulator creates an earth referenced +3.3 Volt supply from
the main supply. This supply is always active when line power is applied.
A small microprocessor on the main board senses the power switch and
enables all other supplies. the main supplies are shown in the diagram
below.
