Programmable Power Supply

Programmable Power Supply Circuit

Programmable power supply circuit is a power source circuit that can deliver current and voltage at the appropriate level of frequency and adjustable, which is controlled digitally. In addition, programmable power supply has some additional features such as short circuit protection, over-voltage, over-current and temperature compensation.

A programmable power supply circuit is usually designed to receive input from DC, AC, both of DC and AC output. AC output can be single phase and three phases, namely a single phase is used only for applications that require low voltage, and three-phase power is usually used for applications that require high voltage.

Sources of electrical energy are an integral part of the instrumentation system, including a programmable power supply. This is a very important element for experimental and laboratory work. Because most electronic products require power to function accurately.

Sometimes it is difficult to use the power supply when it comes to getting an accurate value of output and features more power supplies are often more difficult to operate. When the power supply has all the different features, they also become expensive to buy.

This power supply designed by Matthieu L. Kiela, will have several advantages over the typical power supply because it would eliminate the problem of trying to get an accurate value of output.

This power supply will have fewer features making it easier to use, and a smaller size. The size of this power supply will make it easier to carry and will save space in the working environment.

Programmable power supply is designed with microprocessor-based to process all the information for the user. It will be cheaper than the typical power supply because of lack of user interface features. This power supply receives 120 volts and converts alternate current into direct current stepping down from zero to fifteen volts at a current level of one Ampere.
