 +37 V step-down chopper
.
Figure 2-38. Power Supply Circuit Block Diagram
The PFC, +5 V, +42 V, and +37 V circuit sections are described below.
 PFC smoothing
This section is a power-factor improvement circuit that controls
high-frequency current.
 +5V converter section
This section consists of a ringing choke converter and has the
following functions.
 Overcurrent control
If the +5 V load somehow becomes shorted, the +5 V output is
drooped automatically to prevent the power supply from being
damaged.
 Overvoltage control
If an overvoltage occurs on the +5 V output due to a malfunction
of the converter, the status is detected in the overvoltage
detection section and the +5 V output is shut off.
 +5 V ON/OFF switch section
This section executes the sequence that cuts off the 5 V first
during power-down (at AC OFF) by detecting a signal from the
AC presence/absence detection circuit.
 +42V converter section
This section consists of a forward choke converter (FCC) that uses a
switching control IC and has the following functions.
 +42 V/ +37 V ON/OFF control
The +42/+37 V circuit ON/OFF is controlled using the *42VST
signal. The +42/+37 V is ON when *42VST is low, and shuts off
when *42VST is high.
 Overcurrent control
If the +42 V load somehow becomes shorted, the +42 V output is
drooped to prevent the power supply from being damaged.
 Overvoltage control
If an overvoltage occurs on the +42 V output due to a
malfunction of the converter, the status is detected in the
overvoltage detection section, and the +42 V output is shut off.
 +37 V step-down chopper section
This section consists of a step-down chopper circuit based on the
+42 V output and has the following functions.
