Power technologies
TTi laboratory power supplies use both linear and
switch-mode technologies in order to optimise performance
and value for money. Linear
regulation Pure linear regulation
still provides the lowest output noise and best transient
response. The disadvantage is greater physical size and
weight for a given power, together with higher heat output.
Pure linear regulation is used on the EL, PL, QL and TS
series. Mixed-mode regulation
For higher power levels, TTi have developed a technology
that uses switch-mode pre-regulation and linear final
regulation. This technique combines exceptional efficiency
with noise levels that are close to that of pure linears.
Mixed-mode regulation is used in the EX and TSX series.
PowerFlex regulation The TTi
PowerFlex system uses a modified form of mixed-mode
regulation to provide higher levels of current when the
voltage is set to lower values. Although producing slightly
higher noise levels than the standard mixed-mode regulation,
performance is still excellent.
PowerFlex regulation is used on the CPX and QPX series. |
