VOLTAGE REGULATORS 1. Zener Controlled Transistor Voltage Regulator
VOLTAGE REGULATORS A voltage regulator is a voltage stabilizer that is designed to automatically stabilize a constant voltage level. A voltage regulator circuit is also used to change or stabilize the voltage level according to the necessity of the circuit. Thus, a voltage regulator is used for two reasons:- 1. To regulate or vary the output voltage of the circuit. 2. To keep the output voltage constant at the desired value in-spite of variations in the supply voltage or in the load current. To know more on the basics of this subject, you may also refer Regulated Power Supply. Voltage regulators find their applications in computers, alternators, power generator plants where the circuit is used to control the output of the plant. Voltage regulators may be classified as electromechanical or electronic. It can also be classified as AC regulators or DC regulators. We have already explained about IC Voltage Regulators. Electronic Voltage Regulator All electronic voltage regulators will have a stable voltage reference source which is provided by the reverse breakdown voltage operating diode called zener diode. The main reason to use a voltage regulator is to maintain a constant dc output voltage. It also blocks the ac ripple voltage that cannot be blocked by the filter. A good voltage regulator may also include additional circuits for protection like short circuits, current limiting circuit, thermal shutdown, and over voltage protection. Electronic voltage regulators are designed by any of the three or a combination of any of the three regulators given below. 1. Zener Controlled Transistor Voltage Regulator A zener controlled voltage regulator is used when the efficiency of a regulated power supply becomes very low due to high current. -
Lyall Cooper Dr. Dann ASR – D Block 10 May 2012 the Mighty Railgun I. Abstract the Idea of This Project Is to Build a Railgun
Lyall Cooper Dr. Dann ASR – D Block 10 May 2012 The Mighty Railgun (All Bark no Bite) I. Abstract The idea of this project is to build a railgun capable of firing a small metal projectile at substantial velocity. The original plan was to build iterative prototypes capable of firing small projectiles, and using them to figure out the ideal design for the final version, but the smaller versions were not very successful due to their relative lack of power, so it was difficult to use them to learn what to do. The final, largest scale railgun is powered by a bank of capacitors with an equivalent capacitance of 24.6mF charged to around 350V. This produces 3013.5J of energy discharged over approximately 58.75 µs (it varies for each firing), drawing a peak of about 1425A when firing a projectile (it once again varies) and about 1600A when not firing a projectile (short circuiting the rails). The railgun is capable of consistently firing a small piece of metal (usually aluminum or copper); however the projectile does not usually travel very far, although this is hard to measure due to the nature of the gun and the speed at which the firing takes place. II. Introduction Electricity is often seemingly mysterious, but we have come to accept and understand how through the interaction of electric and magnetic fields we can create a simple motor, as we did in the first semester. A railgun is just a linear electric motor, at very high speeds. What makes it different, however, is that it uses neither magnets nor coils of wire, and relies entirely on the induced magnetic field in the rails due to the extremely large current to produce a Lorentz Force to propel the projectile (which will be discussed in greater depth in the theory section). -
Alternator Winding Temperature Rise in Generator Systems
TM Information Sheet # 55 Alternator Winding Temperature Rise in Your Reliable Guide for Power Solutions Generator Systems 1.0 Introduction: When a wire carries electrical current, its temperature will increase due to the resistance of the wire. The factor that mostly influences/ limits the acceptable level of temperature rise is the insulation system employed in an alternator. So the hotter the wire, the shorter the life expectancy of the insulation and thus the alternator. This information sheets discusses how different applications influence temperature rise in alternator windings and classification standards are covered by the National electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA).

Read This First By virtue of the techniques, design, components used and the care taken in building and testing, each ignition controller is believed to be highly reliable. The risk of failure is thus low, but it is finite. Therefore, this system is only made available on the basis that the user agrees to implement a Dual Ignition System. The Leburg system is the dual system, with the power supply system described in this manual. If any change from this is intended, you will need to check with the LAA that they will accept it. If a different alternator or power system is used, again, you will need to check with the LAA that they will accept it. The benefits of smooth running and getting the maximum power are obtained when the system is installed as described in this manual, with dual controllers, dual ignition spark plugs, both firing at the same time at the optimum advance angle. -

SA10200 Series Millennium® Cylinders is installed on the O-200A or B engine During the development of the SA10200 Series Millennium® Cylinder, Superior Air Parts Inc. incorporated many improvements to increase strength and service life. Requests from the field have prompted us to conduct an additional test for timing advancement. Recently, Superior has received STC SE8675SW approval to advance the magneto timing on both magnetos, from the present position of 24 degrees B.T.C., to the original timing of 28 degrees B.T.C. NOTE The timing change from 24 degrees B.T.C. to 28 degrees B.T.C. can only be accomplished on O-200A or B engines containing four Superior Air Parts, Inc. SA10200 Series Millennium® Cylinders. PROCEDURES: 1. Remove all upper spark plugs. 2. Position the No. 1 piston on its compression stroke, aligning the 28-degree B.T.C. crankshaft flange index with the bottom split on the crankcase. 3. Refer to the appropriate service information for the particular magneto in use, to properly connect a timing light. Loosen magneto retaining nuts. Rotate the magneto case until the timing light indicates that the points are just opening. If there is not enough limit allowed by the slotted flange holes, then the magneto must be removed from its pad and the magneto drive gear repositioned with the camshaft gear so that the points are just opening in the number 1 magneto firing position. -

Advantages of Using PMOS-Type Low-Dropout Linear Regulators in Battery Applications by Brian M
Power Management Texas Instruments Incorporated Advantages of using PMOS-type low-dropout linear regulators in battery applications By Brian M. King Applications Specialist Introduction Figure 1. Components of a typical The proliferation of battery-powered equipment has linear regulator increased the demand for low-dropout linear regulators (LDOs). LDOs are advantageous in these applications because they offer inexpensive, reliable solutions and require few components or little board area. The circuit model for a typical LDO consists of a pass element, sam- Pass pling network, voltage reference, error amplifier, and Element externally connected capacitors at the input and output of the device. Figure 1 shows the circuit blocks of a typical + Reference + + – Error linear regulator. The pass element is arguably the most Amplifier important part of the LDO in battery applications. The Sampling V V technology used for the pass element can increase the IN Network OUT useful life of the battery. The pass element can be either a bipolar transistor or a – – MOSFET. The general difference between these is how the pass element is driven. A bipolar pass element is a current-driven device, whereas the MOSFET is a voltage- driven device. In addition, the pass element can be either an N-type (NPN or NMOS) or a P-type (PNP or PMOS) device. N-type devices require a positive drive signal with respect to the output, while P-type devices are driven from a negative signal with respect to the input. Generating a positive drive signal becomes difficult at low input voltages. PMOS pass elements much more attractive than PNP pass As a result, LDOs that operate from low input voltages elements. -

Variable transformers provide an adjustable output voltage whenever a continuous regulation of AC voltages with load is necessary. With standard input voltages and different transformer designs to choose from, we are sure to have a regulator that meets your specific application. Toroidal Variable Transformers, 10-300 kVA CABLE GIS CIRCUIT TRANSFORMER MOTOR GENERATOR INSULATION RECLOSER PROTECTIVE PORTABLE G SWITCHGEAR BREAKER MATERIALS EQUIPMENT Specifications are subject to change without notice. Brochure No. 70106 TOROIDAL VARIABLE TRANSFORMERS (TOVT) • Continuously adjustable output voltage for inputs ranging from 120 to 600 Volts AC • Provides output voltage as a percentage of input voltage over a range of either 0-100% or 0-117% • Applications include test equipment and lab instruments, as well as an enormous variety of power supplies Description TOVTs are a simple and efficient auto-transformer distinguished by their unique shape. Copper windings encompass a toroidal, or “doughnut” shaped core, to form a toroidal helix. The outer face of the windings is Single Stack exposed to provide a path for current collection. A carbon brush traverses the windings by means of output voltage selector, or “swinger”. The swinger originates at the center of the toroid and rotates a maximum of 318 degrees about the face of the transformer. The result is an output voltage that varies linearly in proportion to the angle of rotation of the swinger. By stacking multiple transformers on a common shaft and wiring them in series and/or parallel, the line voltage may be doubled and the current and kVA rating increased accordingly. -
