A.2.3 Operation of the CV Mode
In CV mode, the PLZ-U supplies current so that the voltage at the load input end of
the PLZ-U is constant.
■ CV mode operation
When the PLZ-U is used in CV mode, the PLZ-U operates as a constant voltage
load (shunt regulator) as shown in Fig. A-7. When V1 is greater than V, the input
voltage V is kept constant even when the input current I varies. Current does not
flow when V1 is less than or equal to V.

■ Transition of the operating point: Overpower protection (OPP)
We will consider the case when checking the load characteristics of the constant-
voltage power supply of Fig. A-7 using CV mode.

Point F
Load-off function
on
Turns off the load (stops the current supply).
The PLZ-U no longer operates as a load.
Load-off function
off (limit)
CR mode ends. OCP continues, and the PLZ-U
supplies current as a constant current load.
