Filament DC Voltage Supply for Switch Mode Converter
A single-phase bridge rectifier circuit provides the raw dc power for the high-frequency switches.
The DC voltage is filtered and a + (positive) rail voltage and a - (negative) rail voltage is
established. The single-phase 220-V power for the filament and positions circuits enters on J104
Pin 1 and 4. The circuit is protected by fuses F-1 and F-2. The ac power is rectified by DB-10
and filtered by inductors L-10 and L-11 in combination with rail capacitors C-11 and C-12.
Low-Voltage DC Supplies
Low DC voltages of +24 V, +12 V, +5 V and –12V are supplied by T-102 via bridge rectifiers DB-
14 and DB-14. +12 V and +5V are down-regulated from +24 V by VR-101 and VR-103. -12 V is
down-regulated from –24 V by VR-102. These supplies provide power for the logic and control
circuits on the board.
