CONTROL UNIT(X77-2120)
Digital-to Analog Converter Circuit
Various signals received from the CPU unit are
isolated by PH1 to PH4. Various control signals
are output by IC4 to IC6. Data extracted by IC10
and IC11is input toIC12 (referenceDAC) and IC14
(monitor DAC), whichconvert the data into analog
signals.
Voltage and current monitor signals and CV/CC
status and otherstatus signals areinput to IC7 and
IC8 and is olated by PH5. The remote OUTPUT
ON/OFF signals fromthe rear panelare isolated by
PH6 andPH7 and returned to the CPU unit.
IC9 is the EEPROM for storing the calibration data,
data set on the panel, etc.
CV/CC Control Circuit
The voltage and current reference voltage output
by IC12 is about +2.8 V at the full scale, which is
amplifier to about 5 B by a reference amplifier
consisting of IC106.
In the CV operation mode, the voltage monitored
by means of + sensing is compared with this
reference voltage by R139, R137 and R225. The
error amplifier IC105-1/2 output the CV control
signal.
In theCC operationmode,the currentmonitorsignal
detected by the power unit is compared with
this
reference voltage by R140 and R141. The error
amplifier IC105-2/2 output the CC control signal.
In the slave operation mode, a signal input fromthe
masterunitis usedas thereferencesignalforcontrol.
The CV or CC control signal is selected by D113
and D114 and sent to the power unit drive circuit.
The operation voltage is about –3V.

Voltage”
Monitor Circuit
The voltage detected by means of + sensing is
output as thevoltagemonitorsignal(about +2.8Vat
the full scale) by the monitor amplifier IC107-2/2.
The current monitor signal detected by the power
unit
is output as the current monitorsignal (about +2.8V
at the full scale) by the monitor amplifier IC107-1/2.
The OVP signal set on the panel is output as OVP
set voltage monitor signal (about +2.8 V at the
maximum voltage) through the buffer amplifier
IC103.
This monitor circuitis a sequential comparatorcircuit.
Output monitor signals are selected by IC15,
compared with the monitor reference signal from
IC14 (monitorDAC) by IC16, and then returned to
the CPU unit.The OVP set voltage monitor signal
can only be selected when the OVP key on the
panel is pressed.
Alarm Circuit
Several protector circuit are used : Variable
overvoltage (OVP), maximum overvoltage (MAX
OVP), pre overvoltage (PRE OVP), overcurrent
(OCP), overheat (OHP) and pre overheat (PRE
OHP). The pre overvoltage, overcurrent,
ovrtheat andpre overheatprotectorcircuitsoutput
alarm signals when they detect abnormalities.
Voltageofabout +2.8Visproducedby IC104 andis
divided by the semi-fixed variable resistor on the
panel to make the setreference voltage of theOVP
circuit.The voltage detected by a comparator circuit
consisting of IC101 by means of + sensing is
compared with the reference voltage.
An alarm is output if such comparison results in an
error.The MAX OVP circuit runsinthesameway on
the –3 V reference voltage determined by D108.
Output alarmsignals, except OHP, are latched by
IC108 and IC109. Atrip signal activates the main
switch control circuit to turn off the main switch.
Other Circuit
The circuit consisting of Q110 to Q112 output
signals for turning on oroff the bleedercircuit of the
power nit.
When the output is off and the output level has
lowered sufficiently, PH106 functions to turn off the
bleeder circuit. IC112 andIC113produce 5Vfor
the digital ICs and DACs from 15 V.
