Reference
This section of the manual includes examples of how to use the
CPS250 Triple Output Power Supply. The number of possible
applications is extensive, so only a few examples are given.
CAUTION. Heat buildup may occur on the rear-panel heat sink during
operation. To prevent equipment damage, ensure that the power
supply has adequate air space for heat dissipation. Do not place
hands or other objects on the heat sink during or after extended
operation.
Independent Mode Applications
When in INDEPENDENT mode, any one output of each supply may
be connected to any one terminal of another supply or to ground.
Variable supplies are independently controlled by front panel voltage
and current controls. Ground reference is recommended for safety.
There are two types of independent mode operation:
H Series Operation. A and B supplies (outputs) can be set to give
0 V to 40 V output with the A/B OUTPUTS switch.
H Parallel Operation. A and B supplies (outputs) may be set to
parallel operation with the A/B OUTPUTS switch. A and B
supplies may be operated in parallel to increase current. Refer to
Parallel Tracking on page 14.
Independent Floating
Figure 3 on page 8 shows each of the three power supply outputs
connected to separate loads. In this example the A/B OUTPUTS
switch is set to INDEPENDENT. The green coded A VOLTAGE and
A CURRENT controls set the level of output A. The brown coded
controls set the level for output B. The three outputs are electrically
independent. The V and mA meters read A or B output values
(selected with the A/B meter switch).

Figure 4 on page 10 shows an example of a circuit with the +5 volt
terminal referenced to ground and both the A and B supplies
referenced to –5 V. In this configuration, each of the positive-going
20 V supplies can be varied from –5 V to +15 V (+20 V overall). The
GND post becomes the negative terminal for the A and B outputs.
The V meter will indicate 0 V when the output is –5 V, 5 V when the
output is zero, and 20 V when the output is 15 V. Negative 5 V is
taken between GND and the black (–) post of the 5 V, 2 A output. To
set up this configuration, proceed as follows:
1. Turn the CPS250 POWER to OFF. Connect the outputs as
shown in Figure 4 on page 10.
2. Set the A and B VOLTAGE controls to MIN and the A and B
CURRENT controls to midrange.
3. Turn POWER to ON. The V meter should read 0 V in both the A
and B position. An external meter connected across the load or
load terminals should read –5 V.
4. Turn POWER to OFF, and connect the load(s).
5. Turn POWER to ON, and readjust voltages if necessary.

Tracking Mode Applications
Series Tracking
When the A/B OUTPUTS selector is set to SERIES TRACKING, the
–output of the A variable supply is connected internally to the
+output of the B variable supply. When set to the SERIES TRACK-
ING mode, the output may be floating or ground referenced.
However, only one terminal of the two variable supplies may be
grounded. These options are shown in Figure 10 on page 14. The
output voltage and current are controlled by the A VOLTAGE and
A CURRENT controls. For convenience, set the B VOLTAGE and
B CURRENT controls fully clockwise to avoid the B supply shutting
down.
The 5 V fixed supply may be independently grounded or allowed to
float.

Parallel Tracking
When the A/B OUTPUTS selector is set to PARALLEL TRACK-
ING, the + outputs of the A and B variable supplies are connected
and the – outputs of the A and B variable supplies are connected.
The resulting combination is a single supply capable of providing
0 V to 20 V and up to 1.2 A. Control is provided by the A VOLTAGE
and A CURRENT controls. The B VOLTAGE and B CURRENT
controls should be set fully clockwise. The parallel output may be
floating or ground referenced, but only one terminal (+ or –) may be
at ground reference. Those options are shown in Figure 11.
The 5 V fixed supply may be independently grounded or allowed to
float.

Troubleshooting
Electronic maintenance on the CPS250 Triple Output Power Supply
must be performed by a trained technician. However, an operator can
perform some basic and routine maintenance. The power supply will
give some indications of problems to aid the operator.
Power Switch is On but Power-On LED not Lighted
NOTE. The power indicator light is in the secondary of the 5 volt
power supply circuit and may be inoperative even when voltages are
present at the outputs of the supplies.
1. Check all outputs with a voltmeter. If the variable supplies are
working, but the 5 V supply is not, the problem is in the 5 V
supply. Contact your nearest Tektronix service center for
servicing.
2. If all supplies are working and the power indicator is off, contact
your nearest Tektronix service center for servicing.
WARNING. To prevent electrical shock, unplug the power cord and
disconnect the test leads from any circuit before checking or
replacing the fuse.
3. If none of the supplies are working, check the line fuse. If the
fuse is open, replace it.
4. If the line fuse is good, check the power outlet for proper voltage.
If the outlet voltage is incorrect, call service personnel.
WARNING. To prevent electical shock, be sure the power cord is
disconnected at both ends before checking for continuity.
5. If outlet voltage is correct, check power cord continuity. If the
power cord fails the continuity check, replace the power cord.
