TRF Board
Adjustable transformer
Description
The transformer board (TRF board) was developed in order to provide voltage to DUTs with a supply voltage of up to 20 W. The input of the transformer board is connected to the output of the PSU board in the test adapter, which is capable of generating a sine wave AC voltage from 0 to 17 Vrms (see PSU data sheet). As the input of the transformer board is connected to the secondary windings of the installed transformer, the PSU voltage is stepped up and voltages of up to 260 Vrms may be generated. Three transmission ratios with various voltage and current ranges are available when the two primary and secondary windings are connected in series or parallel.
The board also offers a DC mode in which the AC voltage is rectified and smoothed by an electrolytic capacitor. A solid-state relay allows the high DC voltage to be connected without causing any wear to the relay contacts.
The output voltage and indicated power are measured, whereby the corresponding signal is connected to the input of the ADX measurement board.
Applications
- AC voltages of up to 260 Vrms
- Supply of DUTs with supply voltage input
- Testing protective circuits for surges and undervoltage with variable voltage
- Generation of country-specific supply voltages from 110 V to 240 V with 50 or 60 Hz
