Another name for these is bipolar since they are able to produce either positive or negative voltage on their output terminals.
Bipolar dc power supplies.
In the atx.
Current flows out of the more positive.
For example the atx power supplies used in most pcs today have multiple voltage outputs but share one common.
Broadband bipolar power supplies are available for ripple testing by responding to higher frequencies.
Due to the large impedance of the magnet the high frequency noise of the power supply is often less important than the stability or long term drift of the current.
Pg 501 single channel.
In figure 1 we have an example of a bi polar power supply using two 9 volt batteries.
While a common unipolar dc source might be able to create a 100 ms pulse width and a high performance unipolar dc source might be able to create a 1 ms pulse width a bipolar power supply often.
They share a common ground and the output can be any combination of polarities or voltages.
In quadrants 1 and 3 a bipolar supply is sourcing power.
Aside from that the bipolar power supplies which can add ac to dc are suitable for evaluation tests and aging.
The pbz sr bp series are designed based on the pbz intelligent bipolar power supply series that supports large currents up to 200 a and is assembled with exclusive rack system smart rack.
These supplies can typically operate in all four quadrants and are therefore known as four quadrant power supplies.
They are fully equipped with safety functions including sinking current.
