Todd Moore for the DES CollaborationPSTalkJune 13 th, DES MONSOON LINEAR POWER SUPPLY SELECTION Todd Moore University of Illinois, at Urbana-Champaign
Todd Moore for the DES CollaborationPSTalkJune 13 th, Vicor Power Supplies Positives –Small Packaging Will fit in same package as DHE –Efficient Efficiency is around 80% –Built-in control circuitry Output overcurrent protection Independent enable/disable for each voltage Negatives –Less understood –Larger output ripple than Linear (10 mV p-p) 2 VICOR SUPPLIES 2 DHEs
Todd Moore for the DES CollaborationPSTalkJune 13 th, Additional Testing Move Vsub (+48 volts) over to Vicor, so all voltages/returns come from Vicor supply Ramp voltage down on Vsub, then clamp outputs to a clean low impedance source –P. Moore says Vsub controls the major current path between clocks & output stage of detector, thus any cap. coupled currents from clocks will influence the reference for the output amps Apply High Volts DC ( VDC) to input of Vicor Understand what influence each sub-component of DHE (i.e. CCD Acq. video channel, CBB clocks, etc.) plays in the system noise. UofI has started this. Any other ideas? Otherwise use Linear supplies
Todd Moore for the DES CollaborationPSTalkJune 13 th, Linear Power Supplies Positives –Very low output ripple voltage –Well understood solution Negatives –Large packaging Will not fit in same package as DHE –Not very efficient Efficiency is around 65% –No Internal Monitoring/Control circuitry More design time
Todd Moore for the DES CollaborationPSTalkJune 13 th, Alternative Approach Use linear supplies mounted at the opposite end of the cage from the DES Monsoon DHE
Todd Moore for the DES CollaborationPSTalkJune 13 th, Determining Cable Lengths
Todd Moore for the DES CollaborationPSTalkJune 13 th, Power Cable Sizes and Lengths With 12 AWG power cable for all voltages –10 feet long Heat Load from cable bundle for 6 DHEs = 50 WATTS!! Total Diameter for 1 bundle, unshielded (x16) going to 1 DHE =.6” Total Diameter for 6 bundles, unshielded (x96) going to 6 DHEs = 1.8” With 8 AWG power cable for all voltages –10 feet long Heat load from cable bundle for 6 DHEs = 18 WATTS!! Total Diameter for 1 bundle, insulated, unshielded (x16) going to 1 DHE = 1.2” Total Diameter for 6 bundles, insulated, unshielded (x96) going to 6 DHEs = 3.6” Mix different sizes of power cables to achieve smallest cable bundle diameter/run & dissipated heat load/run to DHEs Use smaller wires with short cable lengths (& less volt. drop) in the DHE to get power to backplane and transition boards
