Overview
CPC supplies three different types of transformers for
use in powering CPC input and output boards: the three-
board transformer (P/N 640-0043), the six-board trans-
former (P/N 640-0045), and the ten-board transformer
(640-0048). As the names imply, each transformer is de-
signed to power three, six, or ten I/O boards.
Three-board, six-board, and ten-board refer to the num-
ber of 8RO boards that may be powered by one transform-
er. When 16AI, 4AO, and 8IO boards are powered by a
transformer, a three-board transformer may be able to pow-
er more or less than three boards. Total VAs must be
matched for proper selection of a transformer.
