Low Noise

Low Cost

Switching Power Supplies

The New VSP Power Supplies utilizes modern switch


mode technology to produce high-power, low-noise
switching supplies that cost around 25 percent less
than linear supplies with the same power which offers
as much as 1.2 kilowatts in a 19-inch rack mounted
chassis that measures just 1U (1.75 inches) in height.

Power Supply Use

High Power Switching DC Power Supplies

A power supply is an electronic instrument that provides either Alternating


(AC) or Direct (DC) Voltage/Current to an electronic circuit.
Model 1786A
Digital Readout Power Supply w/RS232 Interface

Applications
Power supplies find wide applications in:
Education -used in technical schools to demonstrate electrical theory
Design - used in circuit design to power up circuits
Service - used to power up circuit boards under repair
Maintenance - used to verify operation for set-up or repair equipment
Manufacturing - used as part of the manufacturing process to verify
operation parameters of designed equipment
Quality Control - used for final testing of equipment

Series and Parallel Operation


Model 1735A
4 Digit Display DC Power Supply

There may be times when you require either more voltage or more current
than your power supply provides. B+K Precisions single output power supplies can be hooked up in series to provide more voltage or in parallel
to provide more current. On B+K Precisions triple output power supplies,
two of the outputs can be connected in series or parallel by a mere press
of a button.

What Power Supply is Best


for Your Application

POWER SUPPLY TERMS


CONSTANT CURRENT SOURCEA regulated power supply that
delivers a constant current to a load, even when the load resistance changes.

RECOVERY TIMEThe time that it takes a power supply to regulate its output after an abrupt change, such as from full load to
no load.

CONSTANT VOLTAGE SOURCEA regulated power supply that


delivers a constant voltage to a load even when the load resistance
changes.

REGULATIONThe ability to maintain a constant voltage or


current at the load despite changes in line voltage or load resistance.

CURRENT LIMITINGAbility to limit maximum current output at


a preset value. This feature helps protect the load from overcurrent damage.

RIPPLE CURRENT The portion of unfiltered AC current at


the output of a filtered power supply.

ISOLATIONFloating output, no reference to any voltage.


LINE REGULATIONHow much the load voltage or current
changes when the power supply is operated at varying line voltages throughout a given range. Typically stated as a percentage of
the total voltage or current available from the supply. A rating of
0% would mean perfect regulation.
LOAD REGULATIONHow much the load voltage or current
changes between operating the power supply at no-load and fullload conditions. Typically stated as a percentage of the total voltage or current available from the supply. A rating of 0% would
mean perfect regulation.
OVERLOAD PROTECTIONMeans by which a power supply is
protected from permanent damage due to short circuits, excessive
loads, or reverse polarities connected across the load terminals.
Protection may be as simple as a fuse (which can be economically
replaced), or may be electronic protection circuitry which automatically monitors load conditions as well as power supply component
temperatures.
POWER CONSUMPTIONThe input power that is required by
the power supply at a full load output condition.
POWER REQUIREMENTSThe line voltage that the power supply requires to operate. High quality power supplies have a selector switch that permits operation from 110,120, 220 , and 240
VAC sources.

For more product information please visit

RIPPLE VOLTAGEThe portion of unfiltered AC voltage and


noise present at the output of a filtered power supply, operated
at full load. Typically stated as rms and peak-to-peak AC voltage
(with zero ripple voltage would represent a perfect power supply).
RMS VALUE (root mean square value)The effective value of
an AC or periodic voltage or current. The amount of work
accomplished by a given rms value equals the amount of work
accomplished by an equal DC value. The rms value can be
obtained by first squaring the ordinates of the wave, then finding
the average value of the squared wave, finally taking the square
root of the average found. The rms value of a pure sine wave is
0.707 times the peak value (RMS = Vp x 0.707), while the rms
value of a square wave is 0.5 times the peak value Vp = Peak
Value = Vpp .
2
TRACKINGTwo power supplies (within one case) that are
electrically coupled so that both can be varied by using only one
knob.
TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENTThe change in power supply
output voltage that is caused by temperature change. It is usually expressed in millivolts per degree.
VAAbbreviation for Volt-Ampere. Unit of input power delivered to a load. For electronic equipment, the VA load imposed
on the isolation transformer or AC power supply is simply the
load voltage multiplied by the load current, or the wattage rating
of the load.

If clean, stable and reliable power is what you are


looking for then look not further.
These single output programmable DC power supplies are the newest offering from B+k Precision.
They are rugged enough to provide power continuously for years and they are flexible enough to fit
most any application.

Models 9120, 9121, 9122

9120

Single Output Programmable DC Power Supplies


The 9120 series power supplies are designed to meet the needs of today's applications in R&D design verification, university labs, production testing, and other applications that require clean/reliable power and excellent performance. With meter resolution of 10mV and
1mA, these power supplies are ideal for low power surface mount circuits that require very precise voltage and current settings.

New microprocessor control circuitry allows these power supplies to offer unmatched temperature stability and remarkably fast transient
response times with a load regulation of 0.01% + 3mV. These power supplies are smart enough to power-up in to the same state they
were when they were powered off. This allows the units to go back to work as soon as power is restored whether the power-off was
intentional or caused by a power outage. There is enough non-volatile memory to store up to 100 power supply settings allowing quick
and easy testing when multiple voltage and current values are required.

New family of high-power, low-noise Switching DC power supplies.


The New VSP Power Supplies utilizes modern switch mode technology to produce high-power, low-noise switching supplies that cost around 25
percent less than linear supplies with the same power which offers as much as 1.2 kilowatts in a 19-inch rack mountable chassis that measures
just 1U (1.75 inches) in height.

Among the many outstanding features of the new VSP DC Power Supplies are:
Precise output voltage control via:

a. manual tuning utilizing front panel mounted Ten-turn potentiometers and three-digit meters
b. Remote control from an RS-232 Interface or GPIB Interface (Add GPIB to model number)
c. Analog remote sensing automatically maintains desired voltage at load level of power cable.
Provides 1.2 kilowatts at 20V, 40V, 60V and 120V output voltages
Compact 1U (1.75 inch by 19 inch rack mountable chassis)
Up to nine units can be cascaded, producing more than 10 Kilowatts of DC power.
Front-to-back air flow allows full power operation without space between supplies.

Now you
can have
power without
the noise

The new power supplies pack as much as 1.2 kilowatts into a 19-inch, rack-mountable box that measures just 1U (1.75 inches) in height.
Furthermore, these VSP Power Supply achieves an energy conversion efficiency of 80%, while keeping noise levels under 20 millivolts.
Behind the performance advantages of the VSP series are advances in switching techniques. Two are particularly significant. One is soft
switching; the other is a two-device asynchronous half-bridge DC to DC converter design. The soft switching technique is a vital step for reducing switching noise. This technique ensures that the switching action will occur when the voltage across the switching device is at a minimum. By
turning the switching device in the converter on and off when there is little voltage across it, the transformer load does not see sharp voltage
transients. Eliminating that transient gets rid of much of the high-frequency system noise that would otherwise propagate through the transformer to the output stage. It also helps reduce the noise that would typically feed back to the source. A built-in RFI filter further reduces conducted power line noise emissions, as well as susceptibility, allowing the supplies to meet EN55022 Class A standards.
The VSP series further reduces the converters noise by using a "piggy back" linear regulator to follow the conversion stage. The total effect is to
improve the transient response to the changes in load and to reduce output noise and ripple from the DC converter. Along with controlling output noise, the converter and regulator allow the VSP series devices to offer precise output voltage control.

Soldering Iron
Temperature
Control (Model
1655A only)
The Need for Temperature
Control
Most servicing work requires the use of a soldering iron. If the soldering iron is plugged in
only when it is needed, time is wasted waiting
for the iron to heat up. But if it is left plugged
in all the time, oxidation quickly erodes the tip.
Also, soldering iron temperature varies with
line voltage. Some irons reach the ideal temperature at 105 to 110 volts. As a result, at
120 volts, some soldering irons are too hot,
which can more easily damage components
being replaced or cause separation of circuit
board plating.

MULTIMETER USE

WHAT IS TRUE RMS?

Multimeters are test instruments designed to perform more than one test parameter.
A basic multimeter provides three measurements:
Voltage (AC and DC)
Resistance (in ohms)
Current (AC and DC)
Multimeters may also include other test parameters such as:
Continuity
Diode test
Capacitance measurement
Frequency measurement
dBm measurement
Transistor gain (hFE)
Logic level
You need to review the complete test parameters for the multimeter you are considering.
The selection chart on page 26 provides a quick reference for this information.

With the amount of non-sinusoidal power on AC power lines caused by uneven loads
(motor controllers, personal computers, fax machines, computer printers, fax) you need
a True RMS meter to make accurate measurements of AC Voltage or current. Some
meters also include selectable AC or AC & DC True RMS measurements which provide
the most complete accuracy measurements. You can refer to pages 28 to 29 for a
review of the B+K Precision 5300 series multimeters.

Ruggedized Construction
Some meters are used in the relatively calm environment of the test bench, while other
meters fate is in the real world of field service, plant maintenance, and MRO. You can
select from the Survivor series - ruggedized five year warranty, water resistant meter
with 1500 VDC capability or a Mini-Pro series - compact size, general purpose multimeter.

Budget considerations

DIGITAL VS. ANALOG

B+K Precision offers a complete range of multimeters that will meet your testing, accuracy and budget parameters.
Answer these questions:

You will notice that there are many digital multimeters on the market from which to make
a selection.

Where will you be using the meter? (on the bench, in the field, or both)
What type of measurements will you be making? (consider present

Whats the difference?


A digital display meter shows you a direct reading of the measurement being made. You
do not have to make an interpretation of the reading.
An analog display meter is sometimes called a swing needle meter. As a measurement
is being made, you have to see where the needle sets and then make an interpretation of
the scale under the needle. Sometimes parallax (side viewing of the meter scale) may
cause a misinterpretation of the meter reading. A mirrored scale on the analog meter
solves this problem to some extent.
Analog meters have advantages by showing an instant change in reading. Due to the
sampling rate of digital meters, change in reading may not be picked up as quickly. A
solution to this problem was found by including an analog bargraph on a digital display
meter. Some digital meters have this analog feature in them. Again, check the selection chart on page 26 for this information.

and future needs)

What kind of accuracy will you require? (consider present and


future needs)
Review the selection chart on page 26 for a preliminary selection. Then turn to the specific model number page for complete specifications.
Contact your local B+K Precision distributor.

ACCURACY AND RESOLUTION


If your accuracy requirements are critical for design or service, you need a high accuracy, high resolution meter. If your measurements are general purpose in nature, such as
just checking voltages or continuity of a wire, an average meter (0.5% - DC volt accuracy) would fit your needs. No one but you will know the accuracy required for your
measurement.

APPLICATION NOTES
GUIDELINES FOR THE SENSIBLE USE OF A DIGITAL MULTIMETER
1. Make sure you know your companys test procedures and
safety requirements.

12. When diagnosing noise problems on an AC line, monitor the


line current instead of line voltage using an AC current clamp
accessory or an AC clamp meter.

2. Be familiar with National Electric Code.


3. Ensure the meter is in good working condition. Look for any
outward visible signs of damage or malfunction.

13. Always discharge capacitors by shorting their leads together before


connecting them to the leads of the meter.
14. Always use common sense when using a Digital Multimeter.

4. Make sure the battery is good. Always replace battery


immediately when a meters low battery indicator is displayed.
A low battery may cause inaccurate readings and may cause
potential safety concern.
5. Check fuses for correct type and voltage/amperage values and
that the fuses are not blown.

15. When in doubt read the manual or call the manufacturer.


16. Never work alone when working with high voltages. Someone should
be nearby to render aid if necessary. Training in CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) first aid is highly recommended.

6. Make sure the meter has a valid calibration sticker. Ensure regular
calibration of meter (Typically 1 year but your company may
be more frequent).
7. Ensure test leads are in good condition with no visible signs
of aging such as cracks or splits in the insulation (Consider yearly
lead replacement to prevent high voltage leakage and failure).
8. Test leads by shorting them together in low ohm range to
check leads continuity.
9. Ensure leads are in the correct input jack for measurement and that
you have selected correct range and meter setting. Reading a
voltage measurement while leads are in the Amp input jacks will
cause severe instrument damage and could cause harm or even
death to operator (This applies to all Digital Multimeters measuring
voltage or current).
10. Be certain that the correct range is selected before connecting
the test leads to the voltage source to be measured. When in
doubt about which range to use start measuring with the highest
possible range.
11. When measuring current the meter must be in series with the load.

B+K PRECISION offers one of the industrys broadest lines of oscilloscopes with models ranging from a 30 MHz analog dual-trace unit
to a versatile 150MHz digital storage oscilloscope, and a 100MHz lab scope. No matter what your application-design, service, production or hobbyist, B+K PRECISION has an oscilloscope to more than meet your requirements.

OSCILLOSCOPE USE
An oscilloscope is a test instrument that visually displays an electronic

TOLL FREE (800)462-9832

OSCILLOSCOPE TERMS
ACCELERATING VOLTAGEThe internal voltage that causes trace illumination on the oscilloscope display. A higher voltage is needed at fast
sweep speeds.
BANDWIDTHThe frequency range of signals that can be observed on
the oscilloscope with minimal degradation. Typically, bandwidth is specified in megahertz (MHz) and is the maximum frequency at which signals
are within 3 dB in amplitude.
DELAYED TIME BASEAllows a single signal to be viewed at two different sweep speeds, by expanding a portion of the waveform and starting at
some point after the main time base begins. This is more useful than
merely magnifying the display because it allows all parts of the main sweep
signal to be observed with any desired amount of expansion or horizontal
magnification.
DUAL TIME BASEA dual time oscilloscope allows you to view one signal at two different sweep speeds simultaneously, with delayed trigger.
One sweep can be used to observe a complete waveform (such as a full
frame of a video signal) while the second sweep is used to expand the signal and view only a portion of it (such as a single line of the same video
signal).
EXTERNAL TRIGGERExternally supplied signal that starts
the sweep.
INPUT IMPEDANCEThe AC and DC resistance that a signal sees at
the oscilloscope input.
RISE TIMEThe minimum time that it takes the CRT beam to rise from
the 10% mark on the CRT graticule to the 90% mark on the graticule.
Oscilloscope rise time specifications are directly related to bandwidth.
SWEEPThe motion of the CRT beam from left to right that causes the
trace to appear. A sweep time of 0.1 ms/div means that the beam moves
across one division of the CRT in 0.1 ms. Faster sweep speeds are
required to view higher frequency signals.
SWEEP MAGNIFIERAllows a portion of a displayed waveform to be
magnified (typically X10) without actually shortening the sweep time setting. This is an advantage over simply increasing the sweep speed because
increasing the sweep speed can result in the desired portion of the waveform disappearing off the screen. Additionally, this feature increases the
maximum sweep speed by the magnification factor.
TRIGGERSignal that starts the sweep of the oscilloscope CRT beam
across the display. The trigger level controls the amplitude at which the
sweep will begin.
VERTICAL SENSITIVITYThe signal level required to cause a single
division of vertical deflection. For example, for a vertical attenuator setting
of 5 mV/div, a 5 mV peak signal will produce one division of vertical
deflection.
V MODE TRIGGERINGV mode triggering permits each waveform
viewed to become its own trigger signal. In dual trace operation, the trigger source alternates between channels. Sometimes referred to as alternate triggering.
VERTICAL ATTENUATORThe precision input circuit controls the level
of the input signal. Usually this circuit consists of calibrated steps in
a 1-2-5 sequence (i.e., 10 mV/div, 20 mV/div, 50 mV/div. etc) which
allow the oscilloscope to display signals with levels from many volts to
only a few millivolts.

VIDEO SYNCAllows vertical (TV V) or horizontal (TV H) video sync


pulses to be selected for triggering. Vertical sync pulses are selected to
view vertical fields or frames of video and horizontal sync pulses are
selected for viewing horizontal lines of video. Sometimes referred to as
TV sync.
X-Y DISPLAYMode of operation which displays a graph of two voltages. The Y axis is the vertical axis (usually channel 1) and the X axis is
the horizontal axis (usually Channel 2).
Z-AXISAllows an external signal to control the intensity of the CRT
beam. Also referred to as intensity modulation.

DIGITAL OSCILLOSCOPE TERMS


BYTEUsually contains eight bits of digital information (sometimes contains 10 to 12 bits). Also referred to as a word.
EQUIVALENT TIME SAMPLINGA method of sampling used by some
Digital Storage Oscilloscopes to allow them to capture repetitive waveforms with frequencies that are higher than the sampling rate.
HARD COPYA paper copy of the displayed waveform made by an
external plotter.
HORIZONTAL RESOLUTIONThe number of points possible across the
oscilloscope display. Usually, if the horizontal resolution is 1 K (1024),
there will be 1000 points (samples) plotted across the display from the far
left vertical graduation to the far right graduation. (100 points or samples
per division).
INTERFACEAbility to talk to and/or receive commands from an external
computer or other electronic device.
MEMORYThe electronic circuitry that stores the digitized signal. For
DSOs, memory is usually specified in kilobytes. One kilobyte contains
1024 bytes of information.
PRE-TRIGGERThe ability of a DSO to view signals before the trigger.
This allows the user to determine the cause of many undesired effects in
electrical and electronic equipment.
REFRESH MODEThe trace moves across the CRT from left to right
(just like a conventional oscilloscope) and the display is refreshed (updated) each time a trigger occurs.
ROLL MODEThe trace moves across the CRT from right to left (like a
chart recorder) and is continually updated.
SAMPLEThe digital representative of an instantaneous value of the digital storage oscilloscopes input signal. The DSO works by taking sample
of the waveform at various points.
SAMPLING RATEThe rate at which the input signal is converted to a
digital signal. Maximum sampling rate is usually expressed in MS/s
(megasamples per second).
SINGLE SHOT MODEUsed for capturing one-time events or pre-trigger information.
VERTICAL RESOLUTIONThe number of vertical points that are possible on the oscilloscope display. An eight bit DSO allows a vertical resolution of 256, a ten bit DSO allows 1024 points, and a twelve bit DSO
allows 4096 points.

5105A

200 MS/s Digital Storage Oscilloscope


These digital scopes store waveforms in memory. For one-shot events, you can see what happened before the trigger. You can store up to two waveforms, each 2kx8 bit long.
After acquisition, the data can be manipulated and displayed in many different ways. You can change time base or vertical position. You can select which portion of a waveform youd like to look at in more depth. You can compare the measured waveform to a known-good waveform in memory. Additionally, Model 5105A incorporate glitch
capture to see signals that otherwise would not be seen. You can interpolate or smooth the wave form to fill in the gaps.
Selectable acquisition modes

On-CRT readout for ease of use.Works in both analog

REFRESH:Trace is updated left to right.

and digital mode.

Display may show only part of record


ROLL: adds new sample to right side of display. Display always
shows whats changing. Useful for slow moving signals.
SINGLE to store one shot event for analysis
PRETRIG to see what happened before the trigger
ENVELOPE to see how signal fluctuates

Set cursors or have scope automatically take measurements


Linear, sinusoidal interpolation: Fills in digital dots between

two samples. Good for digital expansion.


Analog smoothing: Fills gap in an analog manner between

two adjacent display dots.

SINGLE-SHOT MODE (pictured left) for single


events. ENVELOPE MODE (pictured center): Each
sweep of a repetitive signal accumulates on the
screen, building up an envelope view of the signal
variations.

Measuring Functions
Channel power measurement
Measures the sum of the power in the zone
specified by the zone center and zone width
(slash area in figure). In short, it is possible to
measure the total power in the specified frequency band. Of course it is possible to
measure the noise power.

Adjacent channel
power measurement
Capable of measuring the adjacent channel
power leakage as the ratio of the power in the
range specified by offset frequency and bandwidth (slash area in figure) to the carrier wave
power. Both the upper and lower side power
leakage are measured.
Furthermore, the method for measurement may be selected out of three
methods, i.e., total power method, reference level method and in-band
method, from the classification of definition of carrier wave power.

Peak Function
Two different modes are available for peak search. One is normal peak search
mode to search for the peak level with all of 10div of the frequency axis as the
search range, and another is in-zone peak search mode to search for the peak
level in the range specified by the center value and width. NEXT search (search
for the next smaller level) of up to 9 is permitted in the normal peak search
mode. The marker moves to the peak level at each sweep in the in-zone peak
search mode.

Calculation Functions
Average
Simple averaging processing is executed at each sweep. The number of
times of averaging can be set from a range of 2 to 256 times by steps,
which is a power of 2. The signal components buried in the noise can be
measured.

Marker Function

Over Write
The image on the screen is not cleared for each sweep, and overwriting
display is executed. It is, therefore, possible to observe the process of
changes in the signal.

For more product information please visit

Two different modes are available for marker measurement. One is normal
marker mode to measure and display the frequency (maximum effective number
of digits : 7) and level (maximum effective number of digits : 3) of the marker
point, and another is delta marker mode to measure and display the frequency
difference and level difference between two markers (one of which is a reference
marker).

Totalize mode permits counting of individual events

FREQUENCY RATIOMeasurement of the frequency ratio of


two different input signals as applied to two different input
channels.
PERIODThe time required for a single cycle of the input
event to occur. Measured in seconds or fractions of a second
and is the reciprocal of frequency. (i.e., Time = 1/Frequency).
PERIOD AVERAGINGSampling a number of input periods
and displaying the average of these sampled periods.
PRESCALERA frequency divider circuit which extends the
high frequency measurement capability of a counter.
SENSITIVITYThe lowest amplitude (strength) signal that the

TCXOTemperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator. The
time base of the highest quality frequency counters is a TCXO,
which provides high accuracy and stability.
TIME BASE ACCURACYThe accuracy of a counter is determined by the stability of its internal time base. Stability is measured in parts per million (ppm), while undergoing temperature
and operating voltage variations.
TIME INTERVALMeasurement of the time difference from
the edge of one channels input signal to the edge of another
channelss input signal.
TOTALIZEContinuous counting of the number of events
that have occurred since the counter was reset.

These insulation testers are intended primarily for periodic testing of industrial
motors, transformers, electrical wiring, and cable insulation for signs of deterioration. Low readings may indicate impending failure and permit replacement
during routine maintenance rather than risking production downtime. Also
useful for safety testing of TV sets and appliances to assure
no hazardous leakage current. The voltage and resistance ratings for insulation
testing are often specified for the product to be tested.

In the past, LCR meters were used to test the value of a capacitor
(testing it out of circuit). These meters will indicate that a bad
capacitor is good because it only measures its capacitance value,
and a bad capacitor can still store the correct amount of charge
when it is tested by a LCR meter. By using the Model 881 in its
DCR & ESR Mode, the tester can quickly detect a shorted capacitor in its DCR cycle and also determine its ESR value, letting you
know right away if a capacitor is good or bad. By performing this
test in-circuit, a technician can quickly test many capacitors on
the printed circuit board reducing the amount of time normally
spent on trouble shooting.
