Voltage Commutated Thyristorised Chopper with Power Supply Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : SCL-EELE-12907

Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Voltage Commutated Thyristorised Chopper with Power Supply (Product ID: 12907) as part of its electronics engineering lab equipment range. It is a step-down DC chopper using a main and an auxiliary SCR, in which the main SCR is turned off by applying a reverse voltage from a charged capacitor.

Quick Answer

A UJT relaxation oscillator, op-amp, timer IC and hex inverter generate the gate pulses, which two NPN transistors deliver through two 1:1:1 pulse transformers to the main and auxiliary SCRs. Firing the auxiliary SCR places the commutating capacitor across the main SCR, reverse-biasing it and ending each on-period, so varying the on-time changes the average output. The load is a 12 V, 6 W bulb with inductors and a freewheeling diode, and two SPST switches and a push-to-ON switch set up and start the circuit. Supplies are ±12 V DC and 5 V DC at 100 mA regulated, with a bridge rectifier for the DC input; the board runs from 230 V ±10%, 50 Hz mains.
