DESCRIPTION

1-2

This

instruction

manual

contains

operating

and

service

instructions

for

four

Hewlett-Packard

precision

power

supplies.

The

four

models

(desig¬

nated

6104A,

6105A,

6114A,

and

6115A)

are

ideal

for

applications

requiring

an

accurate,

highly

stable,

and

easily

settable

source

of

dc

voltage

or

current.

All

models

are

completely

solid-state

and

feature

constant

voltage/constant

current

operation,

auto¬

matic

dual-range

operation,

overvoltage

crowbar

protection,

front-panel

voltage

and

current

meter¬

ing,

and

provisions

for

remote

voltage

and

current

programming.

In

addition,

all

models

are

capable

of

auto-series,

auto-parallel,

and

auto-tracking

operation.

Front-panel

mounted

controls

allow

current

limit

and

overvoltage

trip

points

to

be

con¬

veniently

set,

while

OVERVOLTAGE

and

CURRENT

MODE

light

emitting

diodes

indicate

when

the

cor¬

responding

condition

is

in

effect.

1-3

Additional

features

and

characteristics

appli¬

cable

to

specific

models

are

described

in

the

fol¬

lowing

paragraphs.

Section

of

this

manual

cov¬

ers

the

use

of

all

controls

and

indicators

and

gives

procedures

for

implementing

the

various

operating

modes.

1-4

MODELS

6104A

and

6105A

1-5

These

models

employ

individual

voltage

and

current

meters,

and

a

10-tum

potentiometer

for

setting

output

voltage

levels.

With

the

exception

of

some

component

values

and

meter

scale

mark¬

ings,

the

two

models

are

physically

identical.

For

improved

settability,

an

optional

three-digit

deca-

dial

voltage

control

(option

013)

is

available.

1-6

Model

6104A

Output

Ratings.

The

Model

6104A

can

be

operated

in

either

of

two

ranges:

0

to

20V

at

0

to

2A;

or

20

to

40V

at

0

to

1A.

Auto¬

matic

voltage

range

crossover

occurs

if

the

load

current

exceeds

approximately

1A

and

the

output

voltage

has

been

set

above

20V.

1-7

The

front

panel

CURRENT

control

allows

the

maximum

output

current

to

be

set

to

any

desired

value

from

0

amps

up

to

the

maximum

current

rating

for

the

range.

Using

this

control,

the

power

supply

can

be

operated

as

a

constant

current

source

with

0.01%

current

regulation.

The

front

panel

CURRENT

MODE

indicator

lights

when

either

the

maximum

(gross)

current

limit

is

reached,

or

when

the

current

limit

established

by

the

front

panel

control

is

reached.

When

the

indicator

is

lighted,

the

output

voltage

is

uncalibrated.

However,

the

front

panel

voltmeter

continues

to

indicate

the

output

voltage

with

an

accuracy

of

2%.

set

above

50V.

1-10

MODELS

6114A

and

6115A

1-11

These

models

make

use

of

a

front-panel

mounted

four-digit

pushbutton

control

to

increase

and

decrease

output

voltage

in

unit

steps.

A

thumbwheel

control

is

used

to

set

the

fifth

(or

least

significant)

digit

for

output

voltage

accuracy

in

the

fractional

millivolt

range.

A

single

meter,

combining

both

voltage

and

current

functions,

is

also

located

on

the

front

panel.

A

METER

slide

switch

selects

the

function

indicated

on

the

meter.

With

the

exception

of

scale

markings,

the

6114A

and

6115A

are

physically

identical.

6115A

Output

Ratings.

The

Model

6115A

50V

at

0

to

0,

8A;

or

50

to

REPACKAGING

FOR

SHIPMENT

2-8

To

insure

safe

shipment

of

the

instrument,

it

is

recommended

that

the

package

designed

for

the

instrument

be

used.

The

original

packaging

mater¬

ial

is

reusable.

If

it

is

not

available,

contact

your

local

Hewlett-Packard

field

office

to

obtain

the

materials.

This

office

will

also

furnish

the

address

of

the

nearest

service

office

to

which

the

instrument

can

be

shipped.

Be

sure

to

attach

a

tag

to

the

instrument

specifying

the

owner,

model

number,

full

serial

number,

and

service

required,

or

a

INSTALLATION

DATA

2-10

The

instrument

is

shipped

ready

for

bench

operation.

It

is

necessary

only

to

and

it

is

ready

for

operation.

2-11

LOCATION

2-12

This

instrument

is

convection

cooled.

Suf¬

ficient

space

should

be

allotted

so

that

a

free

flow

of

cooling

air

can

reach

the

top

and

rear

of

the

in¬

strument

when

it

is

in

operation.

It

should

be

used

in

an

area

where

the

ambient

temperature

remains

between

0°C

and

+55°C.

REQUIREMENTS

2-18

Models

6104A,

6105A,

6114A,

and

6115A

may

be

operated

continuously

from

either

a

nominal

120

volt

or

240

volt,

48-440Hz

power

source.

A

two-

position

selector

switch

(f)

located

within

the

a-c

power

module

on

the

rear

panel

selects

the

power

source.

Before

connecting

the

instrument

to

2-20

POWER

CABLE

the

power

source,

check

that

the

selector

switch

setting

matches

the

nominal

line

voltage

of

the

source.

If

required,

move

the

switch

to

the

other

position.

Note

that

the

power

cable

must

be

re¬

moved,

the

plastic

door

on

the

power

module

must

be

moved

aside,

the

fuse

extractor

must

be

pulled

outward

and

the

fuse

must

be

removed

in

order

to

gain

access

to

the

selector

switch.

2-19

When

the

instrument

leaves

the

factory,

the

proper

fuse

is

installed

for

115

volt

operation.

An

envelope

containing

a

fuse

for

230

volt

opera¬

tion

is

attached

to

the

instrument.

Make

sure

that

the

correct

fuse

is

installed

if

the

position

of

the

slide

switch

is

changed

(2A

for

115

volt

opera¬

tion,

and

1A

for

230

volt

operation).

2-21

To

protect

operating

personnel,

the

National

Electrical

Manufacturers'

Association

(NEMA)

rec¬

ommends

that

the

instrument

panel

and

cabinet

be

grounded.

This

instrument

is

equipped

with

a

three

conductor

power

cable.

The

third

conductor

is

the

ground

conductor

and

when

the

cable

is

plugged

in¬

to

an

appropriate

receptacle,

the

instrument

is

grounded.

The

offset

pin

on

the

power

cable's

three-

prong

connector

is

the

ground

connection.

2-22

To

preserve

the

protection

feature

when

oper¬

ating

the

instrument

from

a

two-contact

outlet,

use

a

three-prong

to

two-prong

adapter

and

connect

the

green

lead

on

the

adapter

to

ground.

further,

the

mode

in

which

is

reduced

in

order

to

OPERATING

MODES

The

power

supply

is

designed

so

that

its

mode

of

operation

can

be

selected

by

making

strap¬

ping

connections

between

particular

terminals

on

the

terminal

strips

at

the

rear

of

the

power

supply.

The

terminal

designations

are

stenciled

on

the

power

supply

above

their

respective

terminals.

The

operator

can

ground

either

the

positive

or

negative

terminal

or

operate

the

power

supply

up

to

3

00Vdc

off

or

a

output

using

the

front

If,

however,

(for

provides

automatic

As

current

is

limited

(to

approximately

65%

of

is

reduced

to

(approximately

65%

of

the
